Week 3 -- Ok, I have to admit that when I get back from work for the day - I am sore because the compression garment is so tight that it cuts me right above my belly button and it causes a hard line across my stomach. I can't wait to stop wearing this thing. I do wrap myself with hurt free tape to keep the garment from indenting me - which does work. All incision sights are doing well and practically gone. I am still bruised on one side and on my lower abs - which I continually massage in morning after shower and at night after shower and before going to bed. I was told that I am still sore because the dr. was agressive. I am ok with that - I am still flat and am looking forward to seeing how many inches I lost in my waist. I am also happy that my clothes still fit. I wasn't looking to buy a new wordrobe. I have been roughly the same size since highschool and didn't want anyone to think -- "what have you had done" I look very normal but if you know me well - you can tell my rolls around my side and lower abs are gone. I am working out faithly 4 - 5 days a week. I am still keeping things to treadmill, walk outside or eliptical with some weights for upper body. I don't want to overdo process. I am looking forward to what ever procedure they are going to do to me this Friday. I was told it is a treatment they do after the procedure for additional tightening and smoothing of area. I do want to wear a bikini this summer and will probably have a few of those procedures done to ensure smoothness. I will let you all know what that was all about. Overall, still very pleased.
Hey there. I haven't been on recently to post anything. How are your lower abs now? I am going in for my 3 week follow up on this Friday. I am still bruised...but was told that Dr. was fairly aggressive. While I am still super happy...I can't wait to stop wearing this garment and can't wait for my abs to be so sensitive that when I come home there are indents from the garment and my pants. What have you been told?
