My ass looks 1000 times bigger because of the fat sucked from my lower back!!!! I can't stop looking at it, neither can my boyfriend or my coworkers. Also, I drink a lot of water on the Adipex (4-7 bottles)

I would have to absolutely say this surgery is worth it!!!!! Can you believe I have not exercised once sine the surgery????!!!! Although I did eat junk from November to January (damn holidays!!!) I changed my eating habits in January. I stopped eating out 5 days a week and I started COOKING MY OWN FOOD!!!!! Lol!!!! I started making things like baked salmon with homemade mashed potatoes and Parmesan crusted asparagus, things like baked chicken with bbq sauce (with lemon) broccoli, etc. On the weekends, I do allow myself a "splurge" day, within proper portions (most days lol!!) but I do get right back on it during the week. With this regime, I have been taking Adipex, a doctor prescribed appetite suppressant. Of course, with lipo, you don't lose many pounds per the scale (although my shape has certainly improved!!) but with the clean eating and Adipex, I have managed to lose 10 pounds in 1 month!!! I had to buy a size down in jeans!!!! On the Adipex, you really are not hungry, but you still need to eat. So for example, I take it around 8:30 every morning, then I eat 2-3 cups of Skinny Popcorn for lunch (only 35 calories per cup and delicious!!!) then for dinner I'll eat a balanced meal. If for any reason I don't feel like cooking, I'll grab Panera, half broccoli cheddar soup, half chicken Caesar salad. Mind you, 10 pounds in 1 month with no exercise!!!!! I've even trained myself (when I didn't have the pills for 3 days, waiting on a refill) to eat the same amount and not overindulge. Those pills are heaven sent, because I am a chocoholic by nature, but I have not had 1 craving!!!! Of course, every now and then I eat a piece....but it's a piece, and not the whole bar!!!! All in all,I feel a lot better than before lipo. Although I am no longer in pain, the main areas where I got it (flanks mostly) if I'm sleep on it for too long, it feels weird/irritated, it has not been 6 months to 1 year, which is about the time it takes to heal. I feel so good about myself that I am even comfortable having sex with NO CLOTHES again!!!!! That's about it for now, feel free to ask questions!!!

Everything has been going well, not in any pain at all, still some sensitivity when areas are touched with pressure. I am still happy with my reseults as I don't have any loose or sagging skin. One thing I will say is I know FOR SURE he missed a pouch by my hip and he DIDN'T EVEN TOUCH my upper bra fat under my arm, which he marked the day of surgery. That would be the only thing I have an issue with, but other than that, everything is good. I am still in my CG which is now down another size and I can tell a difference because my pants are getting looser. I am still wearing the foam under my CG. so I appear bulkier than I actually am, but smaller than before. I wonder how much longer I need the foam, although it does give me a tighter compression.

I'm glad everything went well! I'm going to have liposuction soon and I was wondering did you have traditional lipo or smart lipo? I noticed that you said that you were put to sleep.. I'm so confused on which type of lipo to get lol.. I'll be visiting my plastic surgeon tomorrow and I just want to be equipped with as much info as possible

I got traditional. I wanted smartlipo for the firming effect, but it was more expensive, so I chose the traditional route. Still a good choice!


I'm almost 1 month PO from lipo to my back, stomach and sides.
So far, everything you're saying I can relate to. The first few days are no fun at all! Have you noticed any hardness to your stomach region or sides??
My areas were hard as a rock. It freaked me out!
