I don't mean to be so negative and ungrateful...

Just took some more pics really trying to capture the lumps and bumps. I know I'm obsessed about them but its the only thing that takes away from the amazing work Dr. Campos has done. To clarify though, I am in love with the shape that is forming. This man has given me a body I could be proud of and I'm currently 165lbs which is a good 20lbs greater than I want to be. 165lbs on me pre-lipo was disgusting. SO yes, reality check time... I don't hate my body. I HATE this process, I hate that I wasn't prepared as I wanted to be, and I hate that ugly scar tissue had to form on me before the quality scar tissue can emerge ( per my recent convo with Dr. C).

Thank you! still a work in progress... There is a noticeable change in my breast because they look fuller but I don't think thats the route to go if I could do it again.

How do you like your breasts after the fat transfer. I am so enjoying your posts. Kick-a## sense of humor. Your waist is Amazing and wish mine was even close.

Thanks, I do agree he found my waist! I think the fat transfer to the breast is for someone who wants very subtle fullness added. I wouldn't do it again.

15-20 lymphatic messages, ultra cavitation, and vacuum therapy help get rid of the lumps and bumps after lipo. If you havent started I would do some research and start immediately

Thanks, I resumed massages but the lymphatic out here is different than they did in TJ. I've also had ultrasound therapy a few times. Hard to know what will work and how long to give it. The costs definitely add up. Dr. C says things will go back to normal eventually, If I could believe it 100% everyday that would help too.

Still coming along, feel like I've been in recovery for YEARS not going on 3 weeks. Some days are tougher than others in terms of moodiness, energy level, and patience with the process. Reading RS reviews prepares you but there's nothing like actually going through this process to enlighten you and make you realize the huge commitment you've made to see it through.

God bless those of you who have children, had to go back to work quickly, have done round 2 and 3 ( or plan on it), ,TT's... recovery sucks. I know that when you have no choice sometimes you tend to get through tough situations easier but I'm barely a help to myself and can't see myself having other obligations concurrently.

I did some editing and added booty pics cuz I realize what people truly wanna see. My concern however is these lumps, bumps, and irregularities on my stomach and arms. I spoke with Dr. Campos and he says this is a normal part of the body's response and things will get back to normal. I try to capture what I see by camera but it's hard. In the meantime I'll continue with massages and just wait because I have no other choice...

Campos 9/30 - Need Garment and waist shrinking guidance

Forgot to update that scale went down to 170lbs, went in at 160lbs. I ordered the small in my current garment because theres room in the waist area. Hard to look at other garments theres so many plus if I go by my current weight, ill be thrown off. According to the to the charts I shouldn't be in the medium I'm in now. Maybe give it a few more weeks?
