mklemenok17
It's been 1mnth since upper body procedure lower/upper ab, flanks, arms. Almost 3wks since lower half inner/out thighs, knees, fat trans to butt, subcision. took 1L! Started exercising last wk. Need direction on how much is 2 much. My legs not swelling (like arms occasionally). Still wearing all grmnts. My arm garment 20-24hrs/d, garment for abdomen/lower half worn 24hrs. Should I even lift weights yet? How hard is too hard? I've received info via my surgeon just looking for differing opinions.
