    @Fast911, well I hope you are doing well. I hit 3 weeks on this past Wed and I am feeling great. I still have some concerns but obviously I need to allow more time. I have started hitting the gym harder and working on my abs and feeling great! I am still wearing my wrap only because it feels comfy, and I figure another few days and Ill ween myself off of it.

    90 minutes, wow not bad! I did some weight and cardio today, felt great, but Im also recovering from 3 broken ribs and a broken collar bone (Motocross riding) so my recovery is also plagued from broken bones healing. Its why I did this surgery now, since I cant do much activity anyway. Thanks again

    I thought I would update you since you took the time to care! Its now about 10 days and the swelling looks much better! I am also more active. I will hit the gym today but lightly. I am still wearing the wrap, along with a very tight fitting shirt like spanks for females. The doc said at 14 days I can remove the wrap and just wear the spanks. Is that what you did?
    I still have a small area of what I hope is swelling, on my belly, so I am trying to ignore it and hope time will remove it. I cannot wait to work out!

    OK thanks...

    Yeh we recently changed our diet over the last year or so, I eat around 2400 calories a day, I watch all aspects, sugar, protien, fat etc... Cutting the sugar helped alot! I lost 11 pounds and felt/looked alot better, but I could never lose the flanks and tummy like I wanted. My wife got the lipo, and it made me want it, so two weeks later I was on the table getting it done!

    I have a few more comments:

    -Again, yes your results are amazing, I can only hope mine will be even close. I do work out hard, 6 days a week but have never had the results like you do. Ill keep trying!

    -Today marks 1 week since the surgery. My swelling is down a little bit. My bruising is down alot! My worries are not as big, but still there. I have my 1 week follow up tomorrow, so I look forward to hearing what the Dr thinks.

    -As far as what to wear, I am still wearing a 1" thick foam pad around my flanks along with a sort of velcroe wrap that is very tight. I was told to wear that for 2 weeks, then go to a spanx sort of shirt, and to wear only that for another 6 weeks.

    -What are your methods and thoughts? I have a friend who just got it down and she wore the foam and spanx for 5 weeks cause she felt it was better.

    Thank you everyone.
