WoWWEE everything.... I would highly recommend that you get liposuction on your thighs. It was painfree for me, it took just two weeks for the swelling to go down and the results are AMAZING!! Everyone used to think I was fat as I had such huge saddle-bags, I was 57kg and they stuck out so bad people used to tell me all the time. It limited what I could wear as nothing fit. I am a runner, I walker and exercised regularly but it made no difference. Liposucton gave me back my life... I have lost absolutely no weight at all, but removing my saddle-bags put me back in proportion.

Oh MY GOD why didn't I get this done 20 years ago. Why Why Why! I have never had so much confidence in my body. For the first time ever I can wear tights with a singlet when I go running. I have been running for almost a week now and I have no issues. I return to the surgeon Dr Wong in Brendale and he told me that I was a freak (n a nice way). He said that he had never come across this before and he has been doing 12 years of Lipo He said my fat just ran out he did nothing to it that's why there is minimal bruising. He said I'm a surgeons heaven. He said there was no blood in he canisters because he didn't have to do any work to get it out. (I supplied a pic of the canister). He did try and suggest that I do lipo on my inner thigh but no way, Im happy with how my legs are they look fantastic.

My doctor may have told me how much fat was removed, but I was too out to it to retain the information. I remember initially that he was concerned there wouldn't be anything to remove. He was doing the pinch test and there was nothing there he said, yet my thighs stuck out, the doctor thought initially thought t could be a saggy muscle.
I have read on this website the various types of Lipo but I don't think we have that in Australia. We just have one which is Liposuction. They probably have those techniques but we just don't break it down into names. I was put to sleep during the surgery. I dnot recall anything at all.

By the way I can relate to u keeping this surgery a secret from yr family and friends... and this being yr only support
Coz it will probably be the same for me
Universe bless...

Why do you need to keep it quiet.?? IN some small way it's great as then nobody knows and no one is judging you or putting you down about your decision ... where if you tell them, yes you get the added bonus of getting it off your chest and generally having someone to be your support but unless your confident that person will support you then it could turn out disappointing.

Guess I dont ve much of a family support... pretty much on my own...
and people here r genereally conservative....as u
said..i dont want judgemental vibes..

Well guess here in Singapore, it all depends on religion, ethnic group, family background and age group as to how liposuction is viewed....
I am 48 btw

It all caught up to me today

Yesterday, time to get up for work. I walked into the closet, & it dawned on me that I could dress in anything and my thighs wouldn't stick out. Everyday for 12 yrs I would spend an hour dressing and undressing trying to find clothes that wouldnt show the size of my hips, so as to avoid ridicule. It was then I dressed into a tight bandage skirt. It looked fabulous. It was a skirt I bought years ago but could never wear. It was then as I stood in front of the mirror that I began to cry and couldn't stop. I couldn't believe how much this had really affected me, and I can't believe how much I've changed .. I feel confident and happy all the time.
Sixth day and the bruising is minimal, still some swelling and minimal pain.
Wish I did this years ago.

Really really happy you are having such early success. I am day 5 and just was allowed to take off my binder and do a proper shower. That felt good but the bruising is wow wow wow. I was expecting this but seeing it in your own body is something else. Keep getting better. I am getting better and better but you are a shining star.

Hi, pain really just about gone. Now day 17. Twinges from time to time. The swelling is okay but I hate it. The last few days it has been all in my lower back and really uncomfortable. The bruising is way better but this low back swelling has me back in Tylenol and Motrin. I had gone 2 whole days with nothing. Oh well. I can definitely tell that there have been major changes.
