Hi dolls! I am officially one month post op starting today! Dr. Hughes says that I can take off my garment now and switch to spanx, but I think I will just wear the garment for the full 6 weeks. I dont normally wear spanx, so I can't find any reason to spend more money on something I won't wear if I can just use the garment given. It doesn't bother me at all wearing it now because I am use to it. I am still sore on the lilpoed areas and my butt, but it is getting a lot better. When I wake up I don't feel sore anymore. I have tried sitting on my butt, and it feels super weird. It feels sore still, but doable. I have also begun treating my scars with silicone sheets. They are so incredibly annoying, because they don't stick that well. I would wake up and they would be off :/ But I hear those are really good ways to heal your scars! Dr Hughes told me to use them too. I hope within a couple months it will really affect the look of the scars greatly. Butt still looks the same as the 3 weeks post op, and I think it is honestly here to stay. I just want the 6 weeks to be up so I can start working it out in the gym!

I went shopping at Victoria's Secret and found out that i moved up from a 34b to a 34c! Thats amazing. I actually get cleavage now, and my friends notice! They say it looks super nice! My boobs look really big. I am pretty pleased with the results of the fat grafting there, but the scar looks kind of ugly right now. I hope that it will heal nice! Oh, and I did not mention it, but my boobs softened up by the 3rd week. They basically feel the same now, completely natural. I am pretty sure they are healed up completely by now, but I am still sleeping with a couple pillows underneath my stomach to not put pressure on them yet still. Don't want to lose them!

That's my update for now! I will post pics later!

Hi ladies! I am officially 3 weeks 2 days post op! Only 5 more days until I am 1 month post op. Woo hoo!! More than halfway there! Nothing really changed about my look since the last pictures I took, so I don't think I will post any. I am starting to be a lot less sore all over too. There is still a swollen bump on the left back side of my sides, but it is going down a little bit every day. I hope that it isn't anything serious, but I am pretty sure that I am fine. My inner thighs are still a bit sore, but overall I feel 95% myself. Everything is just sore when I touch/press on it, but if I am just moving around I barely feel anything at all. I still wake up to my body kind of sore, but I have gotten use to that by now. I am also able to sleep pretty well and sound at night now too! I guess my body really just had to get use to sleeping on my stomach. Some of my stitches fell out already, I can't wait until I can start treating them with scar cream!

All of the numb parts of my body gained feeling back again, and the itching from the nerve regeneration finally stopped (THANK GOD). That was probably one of the most painful parts of the surgery, having an itch that feels underneath your skin that you honestly can't scratch out because your skin is numb. The first week is definitely the hardest part of this recovery.

My butt is also getting softer! I compared it with my sisters butt, and it feels pretty similar! Of course, mine is a bit harder, but honestly it's not too noticeable! I'm sure that after 2 months, I will feel completely natural! I can not wait until I can get back to my normal routine of working out, sitting on my butt and sleeping on my back!

A weird thing is that I am suppose to get my period around this time, but I am late. I know for sure I am not pregnant because I got my period after the last time I had sex, so this is a bit unusual? I read online that surgery supposedly makes your periods irregular, but I am not too sure. I hope that this is true.

That's all I have for now! I will keep this updated as much as I can.
