Ok. Until I saw myself naked
I didn't upload any photos yesterday because doctor said that I wasn't ready yet. So today was the day and it wasn't very nice: I'm a shapeless mess made of bruised and lumpy skin. It almost looks like after giving birth. My thighs are extremely bruised. Skin feels weird, numb yet tender and I have a hard lump on one side and it hurts, the doctor said that it should go away with massages.
Not very pleased right now.... My nose looks ok but there's only so much make up I can put on to cover the bruises, hope they go away soon. And to add some more excitement to my life I will be hosting a work reception on Thursday and traveling for a training course in 10 days - and the flight is 24hrs-long.
My husband has been supportive even though he never agreed with me having these procedures, but when he saw me today he got very upset, he can't believe I actually paid to go through this :S
Hope it all gets better now, at least I was able to take a shower, and had to put on the garment again right after. I'm feeling almost no pain (except for that lump).
I don't think I mentioned it but I had a breast augmentation 3 years ago and that HURTS, and it hurts bad for 4 days but then it's nice, although it's swollen and tender you can see your round new breasts and you get over it, but lipo is the opposite, it doesn't hurt that much but after 4 days it looks awful, makes you feel so disappointed...
Mixed feelings today :(

Feeling fine
Hey, it's Sunday, it's been about fifty something hours after mi surgery and I'm feeling pretty good!!! Nose doesn't hurt at all and the bruising is improving. I can only feel some pain in my lower back, especially when I get in and out of the car and bed. Doctor said she extracted almost 2.5 lts of fat in total, from which 1.4lts were from my back and love handles so it makes sense that that's where it hurts the most, but I'm very impressed pain-wise, from 1 to 10, it's a 3. I didn't even need to take my painkiller today. I feel I'm ready to reassume my normal life, specially showering! i feel so nasty! lol, doctor said that I will be able to take a shower after tomorrow, I can't wait, I had a sponge bath and washed my hair today with a little help of my hubby, but It's not the same. I'll post some photos tomorrow after my medical appointment.
1 Day post op, feeling ok
Hi, it's been 24 hrs after my surgery. I feel ok, I'm just soared, especially my back and abs and I'm terribly bruised. The doctor explained to me that my heart was beating rather fast during the surgery and that she decided not to use adrenaline on me to avoid complications, therefore I should expect more bruising and swelling, but the pain is not that bad. I'm confident that I will be able to go to work on Monday but I look like a monster! And my job requires me to deal will te public, oh boy! I'll scare some customers away I'm afraid...
I'll upload my before and after shots later, right now I can only post a couple of photos just taken.
Will keep you posted.
