If you click on my name and go to my profile, you'll be able to see the results on the post I wrote. I've taken before, immediately after, 1 month after, and 2 month after photos. I'll be doing 3 month after photos later this month and over all, I'm happy with the results. I started really working out about 6 weeks after the procedure and now that I'm done moving, I've started back on a healthy diet as well. Unfortunately, I didn't lose any weight, but I did lose inches and my stomach looks a lot flatter. If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.
Hey Spare Tire, things are going good. I still have some hard spots on my tummy that I rub just before bed, but nothing too major. I'm no longer vacationing but I'm now on the East Coast for work. I'll be sending my pics to the doc next week for my one month consultation. Hopefully, he gives me the go ahead to start working out.
I took nothing prior to getting my smart lipo done. In all honesty, the week before I showed up for surgery, I was on a cruise eating away and having a beverage here and there. I got the pamphlet about what not to take prior and oops, I had taken naproxen (Aleve) on 2 days of the cruise since I was sore from doing boot camp. The only thing I take now is the Arnica and I use the Arnica gel too. Good luck next month. What are you going to get done?
So far, I'm out and about. I walk a little slower, and my gait is funny since my thigh is leaking so there's a pad soaking there. The garment is holding me together. I've driven 1200 miles in the last 2 days and I'm doing just fine. No major complaints - well, my thigh is swollen, but that's explainable.
I'm having the worst time sleeping on my stomach. As I'm not used to it, it's causing my lower back to hurt. Go figure. I flip myself over a couple times at night just to even myself out. I do notice that if I lay on my belly, I don't leak as much in the morning than when I sleep more on my back.
No bathroom issues to report. I eat a pretty healthy diet full of fiber and plenty of water. My system flushes itself. Hope things are going better for you. I'll continue to post as I can while I'm out on my travels!
