Thinking about you and hoping to hear from you soon when you are on the flat side!

Thank you. I did get it done on yesterday. I am not in as much pain as I thought I would be in. My back hurts more than anything. But I am looking forward to taking the garment off for an hour today. I know my stomach looks smaller however, I really need to see it with the garment off. I will post soon.

Oooh so fast...you go girl!!! are you getting the Pain pump? are you doing the Arnica Montana and Bromelain. Do you have your list? My date is Dec 20.

Hello. I don't have any of these. However, I read about them both and will inquire today on why I did not get a perscription with theses meds on there. I do have a list and got all my meds. No, I will not use a pain pump. I'm excited about your date as well. The time will be here in no time. I will post pictures soon.

Thank you. Today, I am in pain. The garment is what's hurting so bad. I called my PS to perscribe me a stronger pain med. He said yes and that I can take the garment off for a few hours. I'm telling you, the garment is so tight that I have bruises on my flank areas. This area was already swollen. I decided not to take it all the way off, but I did release a few snaps, WOW what a difference.

Well... TODAY is the day. I am beyond excited and nervous. It's about 4:30 am and I can't sleep. I guess I should take the Zantac pill now. Yesterday, I went out and purchased everything on my list. I think I spent way to much money. However, I needed everything. It's hard to put into words how I feel. It's been a dream to have this done. I did have pure lipo done about three years ago. But that was a waste of time and money. My stomach is bigger now than it was before I had that done. I do remember the pain well. With this proceedure, from reading, the pain seems to be much greater, The difference is I no longer smoke. Yayyyy!! So I'm praying the healing process will be better. Well, I will post pictures of before and after sometime this week. I have a great support system so I believe and know thatv I will come out victorious! I have to be there at 11:30. I will update soon!!

Hi Marykay. I am doing well under the circumstances. The meds really help. I take them on time so the pain never really hits me because the drugs have kicked in. What I do feel is pain from the garment. OMG it hurts like hell. But....we got to wear it, I will keep you posted.:)

Hello community.
Well I had my proceedure done by Doctor Jimerson on yesterday. I do see a change but I will have to remove the garment to really see the big difference. So my right side seems to be draining more, not sure why but I do everything by the instructions. I am surprised that I am not in that much pain. I take my meds like clock work So maybe that is why.I am walkimg up straight. without bending/ hunched over like some of the ladies talked about in their post. I'm drinking lots of water and still have this nasty taste in my mouth, I know I'm going to buy the redliner chair today. It was very hard for me to slep last night. Just trying to find a comfortable position was a chore. So...today, I must rent or buy one. Other than that, just taking it easy. I am walking around and moving so that is a good thing .I will post a few pictures sometime today.

So glad your off the table and home recovering :) I was thinking about you yesterday, wondering what it is like, I will see first hand in two weeks. Keep us posted please.
October 24, 2012
Hello. Yes, I am off the table. The pain for me is not that bad. The garment is what hurts. I take my meds just like I have been told. So I don't feel the pain really. Draining is a chore but we got to do it. I do see my results but I am still swollen, especially on my flanks. I wiill keep you posted an put pis up with a day or two.

Thanks!How are you feeling?
October 26, 2012
Very soar where he did the lipo. The garment he gave me was very very tight. The wires of the garment were bending into my skin. He advised me to take it off for a while. So did. I still feel the pain, discomfort, swelling and right now..I'm going to take some medicine.
October 25, 2012
