In My 30s Waiting to Get my Bbl This Monday - Beverly Hills, CA

Thank you, how are u feeling ? Actually my left but cheek feels more soft & I don't really feel stiffness on that one, but my right butt cheek I still feel like it still gets stiff almost every day from being up also I get tired of walking to much , because I go out to walk around the neighborhood. I feel like when I take a little rest or take a Tylenol it goes away. But at first u will have a lot of soreness , then it will be less.

ive been feeling better but today i woke up with alot of stiffness on butt area but once i take pain meds it feels better i couldnt sleep at all last night getting tired of just laying on my stomach and i woke up with alot of itchying as well all over my body i had to take my gartment off to rest from it a little did you itch at all? cause ive been for the last 2 days

I never got that itchy, I would just get tired of wearing it , the first few days I wore it all the time. Now I take it off for lil while here and there to let my body rest with out it. But when I don't wear it for a few hrs I feel like I need it on because it helps with the swelling. Wear lotion for the itching , that helps I only get a lil bit of itch but I put lotion on.

did he give you another garment or its the same one youve been wearing since the surgery? im suppost to go see him in 2 weeks since im 4 hours away:/

Hi doll , thank you. I don't get bloated, but I've noticed I can't eat to much because I get full right away. Is your butt still getting sore or stiff ? Cuz one of my butt cheeks still feels sore. & how are u liking your results ?

Hi thanks for responding I am loving the results but I too have one butt chick more sore specially if I walk around too much. I still have swelling though in my back mostly hopefully that goes away soon as I am starting week 4. This hasn't been an easy recovery I am mostly stiff in morning then I have to walk to get things going. I still can't bend too far to pick up something off the floor hoping that changes. I too took the 6 weeks off I honestly don't know how uncoils have gotten to work.

Omg tell me about it , I been trying to reach my toe nails because I want to do my nails and I can't , lol I Cato to basically get on my knees if I want to pick up something from the floor. That's frustrating, I just hope I can't fully bend soon because I can't even put on a pair of socks by myself. Lol

Hehehe I totally get it I tried shaving my legs it's so sad I have so many spots I have missed its strange looking I also get freaked out the other day I ran into the wall a little and my butt hit the door I was taking pictures on hour to check and see if I messed up I get worried over little things cause honestly can't do this over again. But kind of hoping swelling goes down so I can go shopping that's what keeps me going everyday hehehe

Yea It happened to me a few times too , I feel the same way think I might get a dent or something for hitting on my butt. lol I want to go shopping too because all I wear is leggings since my surgery, and I'm getting bored of them. Feel like I always wear the same clothes.

Hi happy holiday it sucks my fam is celebrating and I can't go. How much has your butt changed sinc surgery mine went down 2" after surgery them this weekend another 1/2 inch. I hope not much more. I took my garmet off to shower and I noticed right side of my stomach has more swelling than left. Do you have any uneven? I be hoe at I don't take garmet off everyday as I haven't found easy way to put it back sorry if tmi.

Hi doll, that sucks we are basically stuck at home for recovery. I did noticed my butt went down a lot since surgery, but I've never measured because I don't want to be all frustrated with numbers. Even though it went down the shape of the buttock still looks good. Hope I don't loose anymore either because we invested to much $ on this. About the swelling I feel like I still have some swelling on my back , right side , and one of my hips looks a lil more swollen than the other hope that evens out soon. This is such a hard recovery that u don't know your results after like months. Meanwhile we gotta deal with all this swelling, pain , stiffness, soreness, & unevenness. Ugh sucks. I just hope and pray to God I feel better to go back to work around mid April because I can't take off more time from work. I'm single mom so I got to get better soon.

Did the Dr.tell you that you would possibly lose a certain amount of fat?

I see so you have swelling in the back and right side too. I agree in retrospect I probably shouldn't have measured or weight myself cause I think I m driving myself crazy and you are right it's expensive and long recovery I keep on wanting to see the ultimate outcome thinking it has been a month already but I guess we have to wait. I am totally with you I go back on 4/11 to work one day short of my 6 weeks ending I am already freaking out since I started week 5 today thinking how in Gods name I am going to work in two weeks I still can't bend too much very stiff God help us. This communication is so helpful. I called dr D today to ask couple of questions I will share info when they get back

Not really he just said there will be swelling and it will go down some

Hi , no he didn't say numbers. Only told me that at fist it would be huge from swelling then it would go down.

Yes this site is really helpful since I haven't told any of my family members , only my bff and boyfriend know about it and my 2 kids lol please any info is greatly appreciated.

Omg how funny me too I have t told any fam members either just 3 of my good friends. Man I don't know how you do it with kids tip my hat. I asked about weight loss I have had they said cause I m eating healthy most people stay same weight from before surgery if you loose weight you will equally loose in your butt which of course freaked me out try and keep weight stable. Size of the booty is finalized at 6 weeks that will be our ultimate shape I asked if I should see a more change as I started week 5 today she said generally the butt change is 1 to 2 inches from orig shape size I pray to God that's not true. I asked about swelling on right stomach and back and she said that's normal if you are right sided you move more from right therefore more swelling recommend message will help. As far as being stiff and not able to bend she said it will get better some people deal w stuff for up to 6 months. I hope this helps

Thanks , it's good to know I'm not the only one that can't fully bend lol I keep trying to see if I can reach my toes , but I can't even clip off my nails Jajajaja . About the 1-2 inches is through the 6 weeks ? I'll try to keep myself at a stable weight too wouldn't want to loose more volume. I want to feel better to hit the gym and start doing weights & squats to get my butt looking more puffy lol

Yes generally most people end up with 1-2 inches from orig measurement at end of 6 weeks. But u have seen on website that people do have more than 1-2 inches who knows how has been your weight? Any flux in weight? Are you in week 5 or 6?

I started week 5 yesterday, about my weight I haven't weighed my self . But I been eating normally what I usually eat, some times I get more hungry than other times I'm trying to not eat to late in the evening , and if I do get hungry eat more fruit , and more water because water feels me up.

Are u driving already?

That sounds good no I haven't driven but I am going to try this Saturday which will be close to end of week 5 i am a little nervious though I bought the bbl pillow I plan on using it while drivin? How about u? Have you driven how is it?

Yes I been driving since week 2 , I didn't want to but had no choice my daughter has activities after school on certain days , & since we live alone I had to drive. I didn't buy the bbl pillow I only use my yoga mat which works well also use a pillow for my back I don't let any pressure on my buttocks. But let me tell u at first it was really uncomfortable, now I still get a lil tired driving especially because I drive a shift stick. Lol it's harder because I got to use both feet and both hands. I only drive very short distances the most like 10 minutes.

Oh wow you are brave I figured it's going be weird driving geez I have to figure out how this will work but beside going to restroom sorry if tmi which I use a foam roller I haven't sat at all so this should be interesting

I just want to say to you ladies that all the info you put is greatly appreciated..I now know what to look forward to and what to do and not to do...congratulations on your new bodies..

By the way where did you buy the bbl pillow

I purchased online bblpillow.com

Thank you good luck

Thank you . Let us know how everything goes & good luck.

is it a tighter garment or about the same size?

another thing has your butt gone down since the first week? cause my lookes extremly big i hipe it doesnt stay like that

Its the same size ,? But the first time I tried putting it on I couldn't lol I couldn't fit my hips , then I tried again a few days after & I managed to put it on afterwards. Yea I think all the swelling on my butt already went down because at first it was huge , now its a nice size , hope it stays like this cuz it's exactly how I want it now. But I guess will see with in a few more weeks.

Thank you doll :) , so far it looks good hope it stays this way.

Thank you , I hope so.

Hi , thank you. Honestly it's not that painful after like a few days . The only thing that got me feeling down is the part where I couldn't do anything by my self . I had to depend on my daughters to help me do stuff , when I'm a really active person. Other than that you are going to feel soreness on your butt and where ever u have Lipo. I'm already 3 weeks and I feel way better , but I still can't reach my toes or bend all the way. I am able to do my normal stuff around the house now but certainly not ready to go back to work yet. I think if u really want this procedure you should go ahead and go for it , just have in mind that u will need time to recover and a lot of help from family the first week or so. Wish u good luck and feel free to msg me if u need more info.

Yes the pain did go away already, thank you. Its just the soreness on my butt & all the bruising, not being able to do a lot because I feel like I get exhausted right away, that's what makes me so uncomfortable.

Hi , im glad you made it congrats. The first week will be the hardest , you will feel very sore and practically won't be able to do much. Then as the days go by u will start feeling better & do light stuff. I still get soreness on my butt & get tired and feel swollen after standing for a long time. But eventually you'll feel better as the days go by. I had really hard time getting on & off bed to because my bed is high so what I did was use a stool I have to climb lol and just pushed my self down. Another thing when u sleep on your stomach put a pillow across it , that helped me so my lower back wouldn't hurt to much , cuz u will get pain On all your back and neck. I bet u can't even sleep through the night I got up several times the first week couldn't sleep. But now i can sleep through the night mostly with a pillow across my stomach. Hope u feel better sister and wish u a speedy recovery. Let me know if u have any questions.

Thank you glad your feeling better i hope i recover fast lol
