Your body girl! !♡♡♡ u look so good!! Are u planning to get massages? And did u get another garment? Which one? Their garmet is not good

Thank you! I am probably going to try like 3. So far I have been trying to lightly massage any hard areas I have for about 10 minutes a day. I seen a YouTube vid that it helps. Garment wise I got mine from this place called Faja Depot and now I'm getting a smaller size from this lady my friend recommended on Instagram. @Waistnotime I think her name is.

When you say the first 3 days are hell. Is it because of how severe the pain is or just the uncomfortableness of the procedure? Also, any insight on what helps best for a faster recovery would be greatly appreciated!!! By the way you look amazing!!!!

Thank you, I guess you would say it's more being uncomfortable. the anesthesia really messes you up or at least it did for me. I didn't want to eat anything !! everything I did eat I vomited. I was bleeding on everything I had to lay on those pads kind of like doggy pee pads or else I'd literally bleed on everything. It's just hell.

The pain you kind of don't even think about because your so drugged up.
May 1, 2015
Oh and what helps best with recovery I've found is rest. Just being able to have the time to relax. Definitely have an iPad available or something that can distract you while your laying on your belly.

I have so many things on my list… Are there items you would recommend oppose to others, and what did you use for sleeping and sitting?
May 10, 2015
I recommend a body pillow and one of the cooling memory foam pillows with gel on the top. I combine them together and lay on my belly with it its very comfortable. I use those to sleep. To sit I don't sit much and you shouldn't if your getting a BBL like me then you want to save as many fat cells as possible in your tooshy. Sitting can jeopardize that. If you do sit I just used the boppy. Also Get neosporin for your wounds, I've been using it and my upper incisions have already healed.

U are recovering really well! I had lumps too. It's normal. They go down with time. Happy healing! :)
May 12, 2015
Thanks ! Did you get massages?
May 13, 2015
Nope. None at all. Have you?
May 15, 2015
Yea I had about 3 so far. I think I'm going to try like 4-6 more. My stomach seems to look great after I do it.

This is after one week. It is so important to wear a good faja! A tight one! I was wearing the doctors garment for the first week and It made myvsides uneven. You'll see in the photo. I assume it was from the garment not being tight enough.
