Pleased, So Far, but Still a Ways to Go - Dallas, TX

I have finally added photos from my second surgery. I didn't take any before the first surgery in May 2011, but I didn't forget this time. I go for my 3-month checkup tomorrow and I must say, I'm very pleased with the results so far. As usual, I look good in the morning, but during the mid-day, that swelling rears its ugly head. LOL! There still quite a bit of itching (especially around the knees), and with pressure, there is still soreness in around the knees and outer thigh area. But again, I'm very pleased so far, and am happy that my thighs are beginning to fit more comfortably in my jeans.

Well, tomorrow, I get my outer thighs/hips and my knees done. This time, I remembered to take the "before" pictures, which I will post later. I think I mentioned in a previous post that my hips appeared larger after my waist was done last year (though most people said they don't see it, but hey, we're always our own worst critics. LOL). At any rate, we'll see if there will be a major difference after the surgery. I'll be back in a couple of days with an update (I'll likely be too tired after surgery tomorrow).

Well, this is month 5 and I haven't seen any further results since months 2-3. At about 3.5 months, I went for my 3-month check-up and my Dr. said since I had the hysterectomy, it will delay my final results by a month or 2. While I have seen results in my abdomen (except for the skin-tightening--the jury is still out on that), my thighs haven't changed much. Although I'm mildly satisfied with the results, I'm not certain it was worth what I paid. (I haven't posted any pics because the Dr.'s office couldn't email the before pics and I didn't take any on my own. Therefore, you all won't see anything to compare it to).
