Well finally meeting with the doctor tomorrow......

Well finally meeting with the doctor tomorrow... The BB is a lil off but it's not that big of a deal anymore since the swelling has went down. I'm really glad each day is getting better... I had origanally ordered a large binder and stage 2 garment which fit fine, but I went ahead and ordered a medium, and put it on Monday ... Lol that was an experience , but I feel less swollen and more held together with the smaller size on.. I've gained 5lbs which really stinks, I'm not sure why or how but just can't wait to start working out again... Can't wait to the swelling goes away I'm 2 1/2 weeks po and it feels like its been so much longer... Some days I feel like I wasted money and sometimes I'm glad I did it.. But since its a process I'm trying to focus on the positive and not worry about anything until atleast 6 months.. Incision did start itching like crazy today so I iced it and it stopped.. Well that's all for now until tomorrow where I will be discussing my progress with my doctor and also talking to her about my butt (she lipo 'd it and I'm not happy) well happy healing to everyone

Well today is 12 DPO and I am feeling better, my back where I had lipo doesnt hurt that much anymore but it is swollen sometimes and kinda looks like I have two butts on my back. I took the binder off the doctor gave me last night finally couldnt take the zipper any more, it kept scrunching up and digging into my sides. I am glad I am feeling better wishing I could stand up a little straighter, (this older man passed me today walking, and asked me if I was sick cuz I wasnt moving very fast and a little hunched and "pale" looking) I love people :) I totally spaced taking pictures last night and when I remembered I had already put on the stage 2 garment which took me forever to squeeze myself into, so I willl try to remember to take pics without the garment on soon. I will post some today with the garment but they arent very clear so I will hopefully get to that soon. And I am not as stressed as I was about the BB, yes it is still not in the center of my stomach but Im trying not to worry about things I cant change or fix right this second, and I am not even sure they can fix it. But anyways I will post some pics I took today at work and then try to update later. Maybe work on my tan, since I look pale and sickly.. lol

Okay took a shower and took some pics started to put bandages on and all of a sudden got real light headed and dizzy had to sit on the toilet I felt so sick, had to scream for my husband cuz I was passing out.. Needless to say I had to lay down with cold rags. I just didnt know if anyone else experienced this? Also posted pics for u gals.. I am happy with my upper stomach and hoping the lower is just swelling but my husband and I def noticed my butt cheeks.. If u look at the pics it looks like the doctor did lipo and took half of my butt cheek, def not happy about that and I don't think that will be changing as time goes on, I'm actually really mad about it.. Well that's another thing to talk to this doctor about

I hope it al goes good for you. Maybe you are very swollen. Maybe you dont see much difference from the back because in my opinion your back is thin and your waist goes in nicely, I dont think there was much to be done to be honest. Wish I had your before back! Dont wait for your concern about your belly button, call your doctor and ask to be seen if it bothers you. Hope it all goes well :)

could just be swelling making the BB look off - post pics when you feel like it.
Thanks for sharing!

It would be helpful for you to post after pics so people can see what you're upset about.

I'm sorry to hear that you are unhappy. And I would be stressed and angry too. How much experience with TT s did your ps have? I hope he fixes it for you. Please post some pix.

To be honest I am not really sure she had maybe 10 pictures, but none of them were really similar to me, they were alot more obvious tummy tucks if that makes since, and in my stupidity I didnt ask..

I hope it all goes well with ur BB. but it could be just swelling my pubis was deform at first but now its starting to get a better shape. You should post pics! when was surgery?

I had surgery on March 29.. I really dont think I am that swollen I have been taking bromelain and arnica plus I am a cold ice pack freak.. Im just really thinking this is as small as I am gonna get.. its not that bad really I think I just hoped for more, but I am okay with it, at least I dont have to tuck my stomach into my pants anymore.
