I eat extremely clean and organic, my only vice is wine. I have tried every diet and exercise under the sun, and even at my thinnest, my thighs are always heavy. I am about to turn 40 and I am sick of it, so I booked slimlipo with Dr. Lewis Obi in Jacksonville, Fl. I booked in for my thighs, flanks, and total abdomen.

I read all of your posts and they are so real! I thank you for that. I had my consult with Dr. Obi yesterday and think he is the perfect doctor to do my noninvasive lipo. I'd already had a consult for vaser and smartlipo, and knowing Dr. Obi's longevity and expertise in the business, I thought he would be out of my price range. However, once I take into account the price includes all the preop, aftercare, follow-ups and his expertise ... I'm sold. Your posts helped me make my final decision.

Feeling a little bit better today. Was extremely sore yesterday, had a tough time getting in and out bed. My bruising is minimal, but I obviously very swollen. I measured myself and have already lost a couple inches on each thigh so that makes me happy. I am excited to see how many I will lose once the swelling is gone. My stomach is flat already but my back still looks swollen. I have started the pizza roller lightly along my thighs and abs, but I am still really sore.
I am taking my arnica and have switched over to Tylenol for the pain. I was using real self for months before for research and advice on what to do post procedure, so I am paying it forward. I would highly recommend the arnica pills, started two days before surgery, as like I said, there is almost no bruising. I haven't really take off the CG except to wash it this morning( oozing was gross) but will take some after pics next week!

I am like everyone else on this sight very anxious for the swelling to go down! I can see definite results in the abs, but the legs and back are too swollen to see much difference. Aargh. Patience is the hardest part. I am also tiring quite easily still. Day 4 post op.
