3 weeks out
It's been three weeks since my procedure and my reaction is, meh. I'm eating better meals and walking, because I was told my fat was visceral and lipo can't get to that fat, I have to work it off. After spending so much money, I was hoping for a more drastic decrease in my size, but unfortunately it hasn't. I've been wearing my garments religiously. I actually had a situation with my arm garments, they were cutting into my skin, causing a laceration. The nurse at NuBody hooked me up with a complimentary new and different style of a garment to wear, which is much better on my arms, but now digs into my sternum. Catch 22. My hope is that as I continue to heal and exercise I won't look 6 months pregnant.
Two weeks out!
I'm now two weeks post procedure and I'm trying to allow grace for my lack of progress. I gained three pounds (which is expected, but discouraging). I did transition from a medium garment to a small which is definitely a victory!! I'm trying my best to keep a positive attitude and move forward towards healing.....both emotionally and physically. Prayers appreciated!
2nd day...I'm in Hell!
My husband works 48 on and 4 days off, so I've had to manage ( very unsuccessfully I might add). My recovery alone. Dr Calon did a great job of trying to suck out as much subcutaneous fat cells that she could. Unfortunately, I'm in immense pain. I cry out each time I move, but save the theatrics for when I have to get up out of bed. On a scale of 1-10, I'm at a 20. Dr. Colon graciously prescribed meds to keep me comfortable, but when you get this kind of procedure done, thats an oxymoron.
I took my first shower today and unfortunately I'm so swollen that I couldn't zip up my compression garmet. So, all that's keeping it together are tree small hooks. I pray they are stronger than they look!

Provider Review
I meet Dr. Colon this week. I've already had a consultation with Dr. Greco III This will be my second lipo procedure. The first one I had was just my stomach.
