A Year After and No Regrets!!

WORTH IT$7,500
Hello ladies!! I am sorry I havent post anything in a long time, but havent had much time to do so. Anyways, I am feeling great, have being working out doing weights, crunches and everything else. My abs feel and look great. Still no regrets!! This is the best thing that I have done. I am thinking about gettting a breast lift so I went to my daughter and he said I am a perfect candidate. I will start a review when I decide if Im doing it or not. Okay ladies, if you are thinking about this surgery I suggest you do extensive research on your surgeon and stay healthy so everything will come out good!!

Four Months and Feeling Great!

Hello RSelfers! Just a quick update. I hit my four months mark and feel great. Still a little swollen near my incision, but healing great, I am using cocoa butter oil and feel that my incision its lighter. Im back to doing Yoga everyday, Cize as cardio. I feel my stomach a little hard sometimes and numb, but I understand that this surgery takes up to a year to fully heal so no rush. Ok thats all for now!! Have a great day everyone.

WOW! You look great! How is your flank swelling. When did you notice your waist to really start to come in? I am feeling discouraged because after having lipo on my hips and the tummy tuck I am actually bigger through my hip/flank area than I was before. I hope it is still just swelling. I just ordered CIZE....how do you like it? Are the dance moves easy to learn like the infomercial claims?
I forgot to mention I am 7 weeks PO. I am about to start lymphatic massage next week to try to speed the healing a little. Thanks!
Hiiii!! My flanks are still sensitive to the touch, numb and a little swollen. This part to me has been the worst. I still have a lot of healing to do and eventhough I am working out, I still have a long way to see my final results. This surgery is very invasive and the body is taking its sweet time to heal which is fine with me. Regarding the Cize workout, I love it!!! You will learn the moves even if you cant dance lol. Its so much fun. I love Shaun T!! Please let me know how it goes with the lymphatic massages. I want to know if it works. Okay, take care and be patient with your healing. It gets better everyday.
YOU look awesome!! I feel like we have a very similar tummy shape and I know what you mean about the flanks. I think they are def swollen. You are still early and I see a difference in your 3 mo to 4 month photo. You look even tinier! Woohoo!
PS How tall are you? And are you long or short waisted? I read on here that the swelling can be different with that.... who knows! haha

3 Months Post

Hello RS beauties!! I went to the doctor for my three months post and everything went well. He told me that Im clear to do any exercise I desire, but told me to stop if I feel any discomfort. I have a small hole in my bb but that he can fix it on my next appt. This is nothing bad, he just needs to take a stich. Well I hope everyone is doing well. I attached some pics. I still feel great, and once again NO REGRETS here.

You have beautiful results! How's your swelling at 3 months compared to how it was around 1-2 months?
Hello, thank you, you are so sweet. I am still a little swollen right on top of my scar. I know its just a matter of time, no rush. The way I see it is that if I waited so long to do it, I can still wait a bit longer to see complete results. Have a blessed day.
Looks great! I still have some small issues almost 10 months post op. You're fortunate to be healing so well. Continued good recovery!
Hey, thank you! Whats going on? I hope nothing major. Thank you for your wishes. Let me know if I can help. If you need to talk you can private message me. Take care of yourself.
