11 Month Update - Stay Focused...Its a Challenge
WORTH IT$4,500
Can't believe it has almost been a year. Time has flown by and I still have no regrets. It can be challenging to maintain a healthy eating lifestyle but I give myself a small curve to splurge then I am right back on my game. Still only having alcohol a few times a month rather than a few times a week and doing mild cardio. I gauge my maintenance on INCHES rather than POUNDS now because the surgery was to achieve spot reduction rather than overall weight loss.
I did notice that I hit a weight loss plateau around month 6 but I give myself a +/- 5 lbs. cushion but NEVER any more than that.

Who Knew??!! SNATCHED
Randomly sitting in my home office and rarely take selfies. But this is what I look like sitting down now, 6 months post op. I just had to pinch myself to make sure I wasn't dreaming. My abdomen is smaller and now my boobs look bigger but they shrank too. What's a girl to do?

Looking good. Patience is the key.

I agree, patience (which I never wanted) and devotion to a lifestyle change. I went from going to Happy Hour 3-4 days a week to 1 Happy Hour a month. Alcohol will pack that weight on you. I had to accept that I can still be social without a martini in my hand. Now I meet for power walks, concerts, shopping and dinner every now and then. I bought the book Dr. Carolina told me about and it really makes you understand how your body stores food and resets your metabolism. The lessons I took from this experience will last me a lifetime. NO REGRETS!

I went November 27th and it was so hot. I kept swelling when I left the recovery suite.

Oh god not looking foward to the swelling I've had 3 c sections and with all 3 I swelled up like crazy. So I know that will be an issue for me.

If its really hot, it might be a problem. It was my first surgery so I assume it happens to everyone.

You look great...and your timeline gives me a better idea, that this is not an overnight process. My lipo sx is scheduled for Oct 14th (upper/lower abdomen & flanks) and your pics made me realize I too will be fine...in due time

Time is your friend but patience is not. I second guessed myself every day for the first 4 weeks. After that, I was sure I had made the best decision for myself.
