BBL Recovery Has Me Paranoid - Atlanta, GA

I LOVE THE RESULTS HATE THE RECOVERY! I hade my procedure done on April 11th by Dr. Jimerson of Atlanta GA. He is the absolute best and the staff was very friendly and put me at ease but I still would like to speak to some one that is currently feeling "my pain" so to speak lol. Please inbox me so we can vent about the recovery process and compare notes...

Ok 6 days post op I'm feeling a lot better I'm walking up and down the stairs now. Not too much tho, don't want to over do it. The first 3 days were more than I could have imagined but I'm not really one for pain. I had not idea that I would have to get daily injections, but its for my own good since I'm flying back home its too control blood clots so I guess its cool...on my way to get drains removed will post more details later. So far so good tho.

Overall its not gonna be an easy road, you are gonna have to toughn up and press through. The more you force yourself to get up and walk around, quicker you will heal. You want to drink plenty of fluids water, gatorade etc. Eat proteins, (nothing fried) fresh fruits and veggies. Honestly you're really not gonna want to eat anything heavy for a few days anyway. I didn't get a lot of sleep the first few days. For 1 its not comfortable for me to sleep on my stomach but also because you need to wake up every 2hrs to walk around even if its just from the bathroom to the bed. Listen to your doctor and the nurses, if you follow what they say to the "T" you will be fine... I got nervous because I felt like I was swollen everywhere, but if you think about it your body just went through a lot so don't stress, give it time to recover from the trauma. The garment will feel like its fighting against you lol, but its ok, it needs to be tight so that your skin and body can heal properly. Dr. J is really aggressive with the lipo, meaning he is gonna get a that ugly stubborn fat out, your stomach will look "great". I was lucky because I have family in GA, you will need someone with you for the first 4 days at least. I would dare to say the whole time you're in GA. This is not something you want to got through this alone. Will post more 2moro :-) (sorry about typos I'm on my phone)
