Almost 4 months
Was everything I went through worth it? Still not sure. At times I think, yes. My thighs are slimmer, though one is national bigger than the other. I guess that's normal body assymetry and doesn't bother me too much. Other times I feel like it was a huge waste.
It's been just under 4 months (4 months that on the 17th) and I am finally back to myself, mostly. The numbness in knees has been greatly reduced, however I still feel it in my right knee. I feel it more during and after I've worked out. It's annoying, and I hope it goes away completely. I also still feel slightly numb in my outer thighs when I scratch them if they're itchy.
I got 300 ml transferred to each breast and have been left with very minimal. I did not keep a high percentage, probably only 20 ish percent. I still fit my old bras, just. Little better than before.
When fat was first transferred, it was very lumpy, but those lumps have dissolved and I don't have any cysts. One thing that has changed is how tender my breasts feel around my cycles, something's I never had before... They appear to fluctuate slightly with my cycle, feeling a little Fuller and more tender, the way normal breasts should feel. Sometimes they get itchy and feel a little lumpy, but that's cycle related and then goes away when I'm not on my period anymore. My breasts are soft and squishy like normal boobs and are Fuller on the middle and on top, so I fit push ups better.
I sleep fine on my stomach and side,. Ut having slept for 6 weeks straight on my back has made being on my back the most comfortable sleeping position....I have never slept better on my back.
My thighs are slimmer, for sure. They main portion they took from was my inner thighs and that has made a dramatic change! My inner thigh skin could use some toning up though, because where the ft was removed, I have a little bit of looseness. I fit pants better nd feel less chunky! Its winter obviously, so I haven't been working out much and have even gined a few lvs in water weight.... My breasts have not grown, but my thighs have fluctuated with my water weight increase... But not as building in my saddle and innr thigh rea as it was before. It's much more evenly distributed, which is awesome.... My butts get bigger than my thighs now, so I'm okay with that! I have been left with weird hollow dimples by my knees now.... And you can see them when I bend my knees... It's weird, but whatever. You have to live with the choices you make, right?
Anyway, all in all...I'm okay. I will never have this procedure done again, it's too much. For the people who can do it multiple times, great. Not for me. Hope this is helpful! I'll try and post a few photos when I can.

Changing body shape.
Forgot to show photos in my last post of my legs, because they are definitely changing, too. There is already less inner thigh fat, and smoother saddlebag area for sure! (All in Spanx, size Medium). I know nice got a long way to go since I wonder see results in 3-6 months, but YAY. Seeing a subtle change within 2 weeks is super encouraging...
I was beginning to wonder if my swelling would ever subside... I'm around 130lbs, give or take. I started at 126...
I'm also supposed to gain about an oz a week for the next 10 weeks... So we'll see how that goes. Not excited about having to gain weight, because it took me almost a year to get to where I was at 126! Last December I was at 142, my highest # since having children. I worked my butt off, literally, to get to where I am. So I'll just make sure I don't over do it.

Starting to feel like myself...
For me, recovery has been slow. They said you could get back to work after two days, and that there is no down time. Hah!
I am on day 12 of my recovery, and *just beginning to feel somewhat normal again. I did errands the other day (without my knee braces for support) and after two hours, I felt like things we're not going well... My legs started hurting, my circulation felt weird, I got a little light headed. If you're like me, take snacks and water everywhere with you to avoid that...and wear your support!!
Otherwise, I am beginning to be able to do stuff around the house, like make meals for my family and clean up, do laundry...etc. I still take many breaks throughout the day to elevate my feet.
My breasts are looking wonderful. They have gotten much, much softer save for some lumps that I am still Workin on. I try to massage in the shower, or at least once through the day. Last night I did a tiny Noogleberry session, literally like 2 minutes just to see if I could get some blood flow to the area... obviously I want to make sure keep these boobies! I am hoping the increase in blood will also helps with lumpiness.
Yesterday was the first day that I felt less swollen. I actually and up taking my kids to Target (this time with my knee braces on in public, because who really cares), and getting some Fab new clothes (gift card)... I am already fitting pants differently... There isn't as much saddlebag when I try clothes on, so I tried on some pretty tapered slacks, and wow... A whole new experience!
My inner knees are starting to itch all crazy, which j have been advised is a good sign...and that I can take an antihistamine for the itching, if I take benedryl j need to stay home since it is the drowsy kind. Every night I have been taking an Epsom salt foot bath, and I really think that must have been what finally kicked my body into recovery mode. I am pumping myself with good sodium and magnesium with the Epsom salt, and my bruising is starting to fade (slightly...we've got a long road ahead with that). But everything is healing. My irritated groin opening has finally begun to dry up and overall, I am doing well.
I am drinking tons of water and eating more calories than I normally would, which is actually pretty hard! I'm not a big eater anymore... But doc said it would be in my boobies benefit to be given the best environment for living cells, if I am not detracting calories. We want my body seeing a slight increase so that my body registers and keeps the fat.
Some days I think about this, now almost 2 weeks recovery and I see the change in my breast shape, and my thighs... And I think maybe it was worth it. I'll probably never do this again, but for now - I am so, so thankful for my outcome and I am Hopi g for the best!
