So it's been 10 months and I'm happy with my results. I never wore a dress in my life because I was so selfconcious about my body. But now half of my clothes are dresses! I don't regret my decision and I'm fortunate that I love my results. I maintain myself active and eat healthier. I am now even a vegetarian. Here are some pics. For all the women out there the price on the surgery will be a couple of thousands of dollars but the results are priceless.

So it's been 4 months since my surgery and I'm very happy with my results. I love getting ready every morning since I'm single but even on days that I don't dress up what ever I throw on I still feel sexy because I'm confortable in my skin. I am dedicated to exercising but sometimes eating unhealthy gets to me. I enjoy shopping and before nobody had seen me in a dress for 10 years!!! But now I wear a dress any opportunity I get. This was really a confidence booster since now Ive been more successful in my life and feel very accomplished. Looks are not everything and the love of my two boys fills my heart with joy but as a women we deserve to feel beautiful. Hopefully anybody that is looking into surgery get the results they are looking for. I would like to have bigger boobs but I can't have it all. I do wear my garment at night for the most part because I feel like it molds me. Lol So good luck to anyone looking into Lipo. There are pro and cons to everything and I think I have more pros then cons but I do feel like one leg is bigger then the other. I also have flabby skin in my midsection. Also from time to time I still feel some sharp sudden pain in my incisions. They are not 100% healed. You can still lightly see them. The worst part for me is that I feel my arms really fat compare to my whole body. Overall there's little details that I would like to improve. Like I had said earlier I wish my boobs were bigger. But oh well I'll be ok. Lol Life has been good throught this journey and we all deserve to be happy. :)

Hey! Good to hear back from you. Glad everything is going good. I think you look great. Why do you say you think your arms look fat? They look fine to me. did you already feel that way about them before surgery or do you think you've gained weight other places cause of your surgery? Like I said I think you look fantastic!

I always thought my arms were big but after the surgery I feel like they stand out more. I don't think I've gained weight in them. Everytime I do gain weight it goes to my hips first. Thanks for the wonderful comment.

I totally see what you're saying. I've prepared myself by looking at my body shape and saying ok one hip is bigger than the other. One has an indentation and the other doesn't. Lol. That way I don't blame the surgery. And you're welcome. I hope you keep posting updates. : )

Your breasts look great. They are nice and full...The rest of your body is in excellent shape. The sharp pains will come and go for a year I am told. All the swelling is not gone as of today but your physician did a good job. Thanks for sharing and God Bless

You look amazing!! We're the exact height and pretty similar in our body shape. I hope I look as good as you when I decide to have my sx. The next time you do a photo update, would you mind taking a pic from the side so I can see how much projection you have? It looks natural and conservative which is what I'm going for. You're definitely one of my wish pics for my surgeon!

So I've been dying in my garment but they said if I wear it longer then the 6 weeks I will get better results and since im willing to go thru it I will keep wearing it. I do take it off when I'm going somewhere special and it doesn't go with the clothes I'm wearing. But I do wear it every night. I'm proud of my results because I've been exercising and eating healthier to not gain the weight I lost. This has pushed me to be healthier and have more confident. I do still tingly sensations at times from the wounds healing and I have a lot of them. Mostly the sharp pain is from my sides and back. My inner thighs look better but there still bruised. :( my feet do get very swollen still if I'm on my feet a lot and I'm a single busy mom so I don't have time to rest. I can't complain because I feel good about myself and look forward to getting dressed everyday. I wish in the future I can get a tummy tuck but for now I'm ok with my not so flat tummy.

Wow!! You look amazing! Good for you wearing your garment still. I'm 5 weeks post and still wearing my garment even though my dr. told me I only needed compression for 2-3 weeks max! I feel better wearing it and feel like it's still shaping me. I've been obsessed with finding a good garment. We had a lot of the same areas treated and similar in size. Whats your favorite garment if you don't mind my asking? Also, your waist looks TINY! Did he do your upper flanks in addition to lower flanks/love handle areas? Mine is no where near as small as yours. Jealous! Lol. :)

I got upper & lower flanks and love handles. He took a lot of fat! lol I knew I had a small waist under all that fat. I am also in the search of a good garment. My upper and lower back is still swollen because i need more compression. I was wearing the marena full body garment stage one size medium but today I started wearing the body wrap shapewear size small. It feels like a second skin but it's almost mission impossible to put it on. It feels very comfortable but I still would want more compression for my belly. It bulges out at the end of the day. I guess because i had kids my belly is streched out and thats just the extra skin I have. I just really want a flat belly. Good luck to you on your healing process.

Hi! I went to the same center but different doctors. Coming on my 5 weeks and my results look similar to yours. How is it after you stop using the compression garment. Do you still feel numb?
