I diet,exercise ,walk and hike and haven't received the results I've wanted and I'm simply tired. No matter what I do the pooch /muffin top is still there. I went in a week ago for a Laser Liposuction. The procedure started at 9:45am and ended at 1:30pm. The only uncomfortable part was the needles used for the numbing. I was awake yet a little drowsy from the medication given to relieve anxiety. The doctor removed 3550cc of fat plus fluids (6LBS). I was bandage /wrapped and placed in a garment and told to change the bandages later that evening. Overall I think everything went well. It has been a week (7days post-op ) and I'm so frustrated. There are moments where I feel like I'm losing weight and later that day I feel so bloated. It is a roller coaster. I can't eat more than a handful of food or my stomach will hurt. I have been wearing both garments 24/7 except when I have to shower. I have stuck to a 1200 calorie diet or less. I also drink plenty of lemon water (to reduce the swelling) and take Arnica for the stiffness and soreness. On my 4th post op day I did a hike and felt fine until the evening set in and I felt so swollen. My stomach remains to be hard as a rock and swollen. I saw my doctor yesterday 7/22/2014 and he say's everything is going ok " I Have To Give It Time." I will post in a few, hopefully with a change.

Today is post op #9. Yesterday was not a good day. I woke up feeling fine and it seems like my stomach was going down. By the late afternoon I was swollen again. My stomach is really hard and itching like crazy. I dranked some pineapple juice and rubbed my belly which tends to help. I will update soon.
