SlimLegs

My original "after" pics were deleted from my Mobile Me website b/c they came out with iCloud and got rid of the Gallery feature. If you'd like to see after pictures, go to Instagram and search MissFit2014 and you will see lots of pictures. That is my fitness Instagram page where you'll also see that after the surgery I lost a lot of weight too. Hope that helps!!!

Hi everyone! My apologies for letting the conversation go stagnant on my part. So, here's an 1.5 year update. I LOVE my new legs. The differences were subtle when it came to measurements but just enough to make a big difference in my entire look. I only lost abut half an inch in my ankle and an inch in my calves, but I can tell a big difference just from that. I'm really glad I decided to get my knees done because that made the biggest difference. About 6-9 mos in it I still hadn't seen any results and I started to get worried that I wasted my money, but as you all have done your research, they say it takes at least a year to really see the full results - and it's very true! I've finally stopped swelling at the end of the day and they stay shapely all the time now. I will say that the recovery was pretty bad looking back. My legs hurt for weeks and for the first two weeks I still couldn't walk normally. I had to convince everyone at work that I had injured my knee, haha. Also, I still don't have full sensation where the scars are and it tingles whenever I touch in that general area. Also, the scars were very minimal and I really can't even see them anymore. All in all I would say it was very worth it. I'm very happy with my results but my advice to anyone would be not to expect huge difference with measurements and be patient b/c it will take a year or more to see the full effect. Hope this helps! I'd like to post some more after pictures but I'm not exactly sure how to add any to this convo.

Hi lulugrrl! It's ok, I've been MIA too! I'm having the same things....swelling around my ankles at the end of the day and numbness. I just got back from vacation and did a lot of sightseeing and walking and by the end of the day my ankles were soooo swollen and even sore to the touch.
The incisions are healing well and it turns out that I didn't need to have the scar incised, as it healed nicely. I have noticed that when I swell though that you can see the wounds' indentations in the back of my calves. I'm hoping that will correct itself as well. I did have my six months post ops pictures done but you really couldn't tell a big difference b/c I had them done at the end of the day so I was swollen. I can tell a difference though, especially in the morning. I've lost an inch in my ankles and two inches in my calves :) I never measured my knees but that is where I can tell the biggest difference. I actually am taking some pictures tonight and will update my photoblog sometime this week for everyone to see. I will post on here and let you know when they are udpated.
I hope everything is going well with you too! Post some pictures soon :)

Yes, so far I would definitely say it's worth it. I've lost an inch in my ankles and two inches in my calves. I'm still swelling at the end of the day but they do look and feel much better. I wish I would have had it done sooner!

Aww thank you!!!
