(Almost) 3 week PO follow up
Hi dolls,
Today I had my (almost) 3 week PO follow up with Dr.Patel at the office (officially 3 weeks tomorrow) and he loved what he saw! I was worried that I was tying my corset too tight on the bottom but it turns
out that it is not affecting the fat transfer, however I still ordered a shorter corset (waspie) just to be safe, which is what I told Dr.Patel. He assured me that my
waist I still going to shrink and the unevenness I am experiencing is due to swelling, and he said that swelling can last up to 6 months. As far as I have been holding up on my own during recovery, he says that I am doing EVERYTHING right and following his instructions perfectly. I've been wearing my corset religiously for the past week. Again, only taking it off
to shower and work out. I expressed to
him my concern that my butt looks like it
shrunk a lot and he assured me that around 3 weeks it looks like it's shrinking but when the swelling on my waist goes down it'll be a different story. Hubby and I are so glad to know that everything is okay! Dr. Patel squeezed and poked my butt and told
me that everything is soft and he's not worried about anything haha. Thank goodness, I can finally start laying on my back and doing whatever I want now! Going to the gym today to work out my legs and ass. He wants me to FEEL THE BURN. I've also been eating healthy and working out this past week and it's starting to show on my
face and everywhere else. It really can only get better from here!

Post shower
I've decided to post a few photos of myself without my corset on right after my shower. Trust me when I say my waist and ass looks much smaller & bigger, respectively, in person! Photos do not do them justice! I'll use these photos as my before photos as I start going to the gym regularly and track my progress. Enjoy! and please let me know what you guys think... and be honest!

You look awesome. I wish I could have the same outcome. My surgery is schedule for July 16th and I'm getting a TT, Lipo to the flanks and BBL

Hey girl. Are you still pretty swollen around your lipo areas? I'm so annoyed because one day I'm not swollen then the best day I blow up like a pufferfish :( I'm 13 days post op.

Definitely! My waist has gone down below Pre-Op but if I leave my corset off for about a couple hours the swelling comes back. it takes up to six months for swelling to go away completely so all we dolls gotta do is be patient! it sucks because my waist is tiny and I wanna wear crop tops but since I've been wearing the corset there is unevenness due to the corset AND swelling. just continue following what your doc is recommending you to do
during your recovery!

Looking great doll.
Healinb very well.

Looks good Doll. Hopefully your measurements will go down to a 26 waist at least, I definitely think it will. That would be 3 inches off your post off right? The stomach looks good, which is so important. You have no idea how many jacked up stomachs I have seen after lipo. From what I can see yours looks better than others.

Thank you, JE. :) I just measured myself this morning and I'm now 26.7 haha. My preop was actually 28" and my goal is to have my waist down to 25". Ahh I hope my stomach looks good after healing! Right now it's kinda distorted just because of the boning on the corsets. but other than that it's not bad.

Looks good doll! That waist has been snatched! Can't wait to see how you progress cause it can only get better.

Thank you so much, Jade! Everyday my waist is getting smaller and thus my butt looking bigger. Trying to
trim down my thighs. I think my thighs are the reason why my butt doesn't look as big in photos lol

No Girl! You NEED some big ol juicy thighs! It contributes to the lower body thick look. Just as long as you ain't thick in the waist. Look how terrible kim k and khloe look , it's obvious they got the surgery because their legs are bean poles!

Hahaha. the reason why they look so weird is that they don't have hamstrings! there's a big difference between skinny thighs that they have and toned thighs. I naturally have hamstrings, just need to tone up my inner thighs a bit. Thank you so much for the support though, I absolutely appreciate it! I've always been self conscious about my thighs but hearing encouragement from you means a lot
