Dr. Ortega was really nice, he explained everything clearly to me. He took off ALOT of skin for me, which is awesome and wasnt too aggressive with lipo.

Mine wasn't at first either. It was like every other post I don't know what's going on.
Hmmm, I had the same issue with my DM's, glad you are still here; you know we be waiting for your posts, lol.
Are you still considering having ur boobs done now?...... I think having both done at same time is also a part of why I'm so nervous I just pray I can handle all the pain
Yeah, I'm still considering it.
You look amazing and I love how low the scar is.

40 days post op!!

Almost 6 weeks post op!!! I am in looooovvvveeee with my new body!!! I have gotten so many compliments on my new shape! Let's just say my husband isn't complaining either. Lol. I look in the mirror and feel so beautiful. Ok, so lets chat about pain. Currently the only consistent pain and bothers I have are in three areas, my back/sides where the lipo was done and to the right and behind my belly button. The pain on the sides is the worst, I think everything is really starting to attach because I see less and less swelling everyday. I also believe my torso is stretching out more, which is causing the pain behind my belly button. The muscle repair pain crept back up on me! lol. I have been taking Motrin and putting biofreeze on my back for the aches. I haven't really lost any weight since surgery, but nor do I really care to. I love my shape. Besides lbs mean nothing to me, if I feel good in my clothes. I currently wear a size 7/8 in juniors, 4/6 in womens and small in shirts. Measurements 36-29-44. I am still fairly numb from my belly button to my incision. I still have stitches popping through the incision every once in awhile, I just snip them off. The little pouch I get over my incision, when I sit is slowly going away. I am still taking my supplements everyday and arnica tea before bed and when I wake up. I'm not wearing my garment at all anymore or shape wear. Its hot in Florida, so the less layers the better. But if I do want a little extra coke bottle shape, I have some highwaisted underwear that I wear.
