44 Woman, Lipo to Abdomen, Flanks, Inner/outer Thigh and Inner Knees - Fort Collins, CO

Feel like they can go without wearing the CGs and be comfortable? I am still feeling "weird" and sort in "pain" without it on and I am just 3 weeks out from Lipo. Thought I would see if others still have this feeling. I was told I could not wear it at night after 3 weeks, but I find the blankets kind of hurt my skin, so I am still wearing it there too. Anyone else??

Well, I guess I can see some changes. I am mostly done with the bruising, still some swelling, and especially in my belly, there is a hard lump, like an orange or so, still working on that. I think my waist is down about 3", belly right now only about 2 or 3" (hard lump there) and the thighs are about 2" I think, around the knees down about 2" (these are rough estimates, as I didn't measurements the very day of lipo, but a few weeks before). I will post 14 day photos and the before and afters together!

This morning, day PO 10 I think, I am finally at least 5.3 lbs under my pre-op weight. The swelling is not as bad as it was, but there are still some hard lumps in my thighs and in my belly. I have been trying to do more massage and I have definitely picked up the walking to get the lymph edema down. I also had started taking Omega 3 and Bromelain as others suggested this would help with the swelling. I will post new photos on the 2 week mark and hopefully I will be able to see a good difference from the pre photos. A few more days and I think I can resume some more exercise and maybe spin or even start back up with weight lifting!
