3 months photos

Super happy!

3 months and happy

Almost to the 3 month mark and super happy. Healing has taken a long time, that is for sure.
In the picture i posted you can see that I still have noticeable swelling below the belly button and around to the side. This is the side that had the seroma , and that may be why.
I am super happy with my results and I am glad I did the surgery.

I have lost about 25lbs from working out. I still have 30lbs to go. However, having lipo has really boosted my confidence level.

Thanks

Seroma, drainage, and getting better

I developed two seroma, which is pooling of fluid. The fluid pooled on my flanks, where my love handles used to be. When I pressed on the area it reminded me of a water bed. My doctor drained both today. My right side was completely numb still, so it was a breeze. The left, on the other hand, was not number. When the needle went in it felt like a really bad pinch followed by sharp, burning sensation that felt like it ran down my leg. It was doable, but not pleasant! The dr drained roughly a liter of fluid. From looking it appeared that my left side was severely larger. However, each said produced the same amount of fluid.
Outside the Seroma drama, I feel Like things are progressing well. I posted a pic of my pre, 1 week, and 2 week pics. I am very happy so far. My doctor said that I am probably still 90% swollen and I'll see a lot more over the next couple weeks. That made me feel really excited.
