Hey everyone! It's been a while. Just wanted to post an update. Still so incredibly happy for this transformation! Dr. Ortega is a miracle worker and I'd recommend him to anyone.

3 months post op! Woot woot!
Brunette03October 5, 2016
Hi everyone! A quick update! I'm here, 3 months post op. I still have some intermittent swelling but the results are fantastic! I just started working out again but I find I get sore pretty quickly.
I can honestly say though that this was the best decision I've ever made. I'm down to about a size 4 now. I bought some size 6 jeans and they are loose. Great problem, but expensive problem to have!

Ha! I remember those nerves! It's going to be great!!! It's definitely a long process. Even now, I still swell and have my moments. But, each day is getting better. Good luck to you!

I'm 2 months but still have lower Stomach puffiness! Did you encounter this ! Tx you look awesome

Oh yes! Some days I was like "wtf???" I still have some swelling now. Mornings are the best. But, since I started moving more and getting back to the gym, I swell more often. I suppose it takes time. Doc said the on and off swelling could last 6 months to a year. I just keep telling myself it's way better than before! Haha good luck sweetie!

Almost 8 weeks. Checking in.

I'll be 8 weeks post op in Friday. That went quickly! I'm in a solid size 5/6 and bought two pairs of jeans in a size 5 Thai past weekend. The swelling has reduced significantly, but it still comes and goes. My scar is starting to fade a bit and I've been using scar cream and silicone strips. Overall, best decision ever!
I also started yoga and swimming along with light cardio. Nothing crazy yet though.
Here's a couple of pictures I took yesterday. I love that my stomach still looks flat in these pictures. I'm bloated from PMSing and just ate a huge meal. Lol
Yay flat tummy and size 5's! Only down side is finding shirts big enough for my boobs and small enough for my waist.

You looking great. My problem now is looking for shirts big enough to cover my waist I will be glad when that is over.

Looking fantastic! Hope you are feeling better from your upper respiratory infection; definitely no fun dealing with that.
August 24, 2016
You look awesome!! I already have the issue with the tops. Thankfully I know my way around a sewing machine and I can either take in the shirts or make me own. Lol

U look great how long after surgery did u start wearing your faja ? An what did you do to take care of your incisions?
August 27, 2016
I wore the surgical garment that the doctor gave me from day one. The doc said that I could switch to another faja after the drains were removed. The biggest thing for caring for incisions is cleanliness. Antibacterial soap, keeping open wounds covered with gauze strips and surgical tape. I used a bit of Neospirin on my drain sites once they were removed. That's about it. Alcohol pads help too if you're cleaning and area, and always wash hands before touching. The cleaner and better covered, the less chance of infection and better healing time!
