NEW PICTURES! 9 WEEKS POST-OP

Hi everyone! Here's a quick update: I just turned 9 weeks post-op today. I feel great! I've been sleeping on my stomach for the past 3 WEEKS, doesn't hurt, I do have to change positions in the middle of the night sometimes because I feel discomfort, but no pain. I started the gym 2 weeks ago. I go 3 to 4 days out of the week. No pain while exercising. I basically just do the stair master, squats, and weights (no more than 20lbs). Have not started abdominal workouts and won't until next year. My scars are healing well, no complications. Swelling does continue to happen towards end of day, not alot though. I do continue to wear my compression garment everyday. I have two, I use one when I work out and the other one I use as my all day garment. I believe these garments are the key to a very nice result. I started right after surgery with a medium, and now I'm an X-small. I bought my garment at Huntington Park at a place called Columbia y su Moda. I actually like their garments more than the doctors.
So everything is just getting better for me, and I'm beginning to feel like I'm going back to my normal life. Check out my new pictures, and let me know if you guys have any questions

3 WEEKS POST-OP -TUMMY TUCK, BREAST LIFT, LIPO WITH FAT TRANSFER (NEW PHOTOS)

Hi everyone,
I'm now 3 weeks post-op and feeling better everyday that passes by. After some light house work, cooking and helping my children with homework, my abdominal starts swelling, then I start getting backaches. Swelling at the end of the day is part of the healing process, so there's nothing to worry about, as long as incision looks good. I feel my butt has gone down a bit, it's still a nice size, but I'm hoping it doesn't go down way too much, if not, I might just consider doing another fat transfer next year. I start work tomorrow, so wish me luck! First day of work, I'm sure will be tough because now I have to juggle work, house work and kids. Damn, us women do alot! :) Anyway, I've posted some new pictures, let me know what you all think.

14 DAYS POST-OP-NEW PICTURES

I'm now 14 days post-op and I feel great! I'm so glad the days are passing by so fast. I just want to be back to normal and start showing off my new body lol. I still have bruises and am very swollen. One thing that I am a little concerned about is that the right side of my waist looks more swollen (I hope its swollen and my doctor
didn't forget to do lipo there) than the left side. It's not alot, but I can see the difference. I just hope it evens out. Other than that, I'm happy with results so far. I start work next week, so I'm a little nervous about that. I just wish I can go to work in my sexy business attire, but I can't. I have to wear loose clothing for another 3 weeks. Anyway, I'm posting more pictures now that I'm 14 days post-op, and I will continue to post as time continues to pass by. :)
