Hello ladies! Just a quick update to let you know how I'm feeling. So far I continue to heal very well. The mederma and silicone tape are working wonders and my scar is healing nicely. What I've been doing is applying the mederma to the scar.....let it air dry......put on the silicone tape......then cover it with paper tape to ensure it gets more compression and that it doesn't move. So far that has worked great and the paper tape makes it easier to reuse the silicone tape. The swelling is still there but definitely getting better. My belly button is healing nicely and I have no regrets here. The pics I've included are with my dressings in place but I promise to take pics showing the scars in my next post!

Thanks for all of the photos and updates I am super afraid of the pain, draining and having to change the drains myself yikes however if its worth how lovely I will look later I may have to go for it.

Summer here I come'

Hi ladies! Just a quick update on how I'm feeling. So far I'm doing really well. Going back to normal slowly but surely. My curves are coming in like crazy! I can't believe the transformation and I'm so pleased with my results so far. I'm still eating healthy and I've completed my post op pill regimen. I plan on taking a daily multivitamin just to keep my body healing well. The swelling is still there but getting better everyday. I have to wear my compression garment till July 12th when I see my doctor again but I'll still have half the summer to enjoy my new body! I plan on hitting the gym as soon as I can to keep everything good and tight!

You look great! I like the blue dress.

How is your posture ? I still can not stand tall. It's so annoying. I have so much tensions in stomach area.

Hi! My posture returned to normal after about three weeks. Sometimes if I sit too long I feel stiff when I get up! I'm thankful I haven't had an issue with the posture though. Happy healing!

Feeling great!

Hi ladies! Today officially makes a month since my surgery.....I can't believe that 4 weeks ago I was in bed hunched over and in pain! Today I'm still amazed at the transformation that is happening. I used to buy a size 10 pants to cover my roles and today I bought a size 6!!! Omg it's amazing and I'm so happy I made the decision to do this. If I'm this pleased now I'm anxious to see how I'll feel in two more months. I still have numbness below my belly button but i do feel some sensation coming back. I also still have some soreness in my back and sides from the lipo but that's normal and will get better with time. Also I do have some tenderness on at my incision site when I massage the scar cream but that's all part of the healing process. If you're thinking of doing it find a great surgeon and do it! You'll be glad you did!
