I am loving my new body. I've told people I feel like these procedures have fast forwarded my body 2 years of exercise and trying to watch what I eat. I got my surgery at my resting BMI, so it sculpted my existing shape and took off the pockets- tummy pooch, love handles and Saddlebags. It gave me confidence to wear things I haven't for a long time, and just not feel self conscious all the time. I will post pictures in the morning when I feel skinniest :-) I also have a weird sunburn right now because I laid out in a bikini and my stomach hasn't seen the light of day in at least a decade!

Glad to see this post. I had smart lips of inner and outer thighs on 4/21/17 I had tremendous bruising and am still sore. My job at the medical spa where my boss did the procedure requires a lot of sitting. It hasn't been easy. I feel a little better each day but feel like I have a ways to go. Still have swelling but it is getting some better. When did you feel like yourself again?

You look great!!! Congratulations on the results, I'm on day 3 post op with no complications in anyway. Hoping my results are just as amazing as yours.

You look great! Has anything surprised you about the recovery so far?

The pain from phase 1 which was my bra rolls, flanks and hips was a much more painful recovery than I anticipated.

Nice! I love your results!! Did you have to take any time off work after the procedure? Did you notice any weight loss on the scale from the lipo?

Thank you :-) I did take a few days off after each phase when I was on painkillers. I have not had much change on the scale. I gained after each procedure and I am now back at my pre-op weight. My clothes fit so much better and I actually have a waist again.
