I had lipo done on my abdomen, love handles and axilla areas 3 weeks ago. My doctor wants me to tape my back for the best results. I am single and I don't have friends close by to help me with this, I've talked to the Dr multiple times about this and he can not offer me any other solution. Any tips on how I can manage this? #desperate #regret #iseerevisioninmyfuture
