Extensiveness of Activity After Vaser Liposuction?

miabella
I spent the first two days after the Vaser Liposuction for my outer thighs (saddle bags) and upper thighs literally resting. However I wonder, when is it acceptable for me to move around more? Will walking around for extensive periods prolong the swelling? I feel that by not moving around to my usual degree will cause me putting more weight on. I work with children and have taken 4 days away from this job; but it requires a fair bit of activity and I'm due back tomorrow. I want to get the best results as quickly as possible and would hate to think that something I am doing could interfere with this.
