I no longer stalk and obsess this site and have just been shopping online like crazy and just enjoying my better shape. I will post some updated pics soon. I am happy with my body and was pretty religious with my garment for about 5-6 weeks then i completely gave up on it and have been eating a lottt altho i remain same weight day of surgery, i gained around 6 pounds because gurrllllll i am NOT willing to take ANY chances losing this booty! I'm much happier with my body n the changes its made over this time. I do plan on working out and doing all that good stuff but i figure, i had a lot more fat before and i managed whats a lil extra now altho the lil extra is really a little. :)

Wow shopping is just so much more fun n muchh easier, things just look better with a nice big booty yippeeee!

Looks great so far. I just ordered another garment in a med. The large is to large now.. I feel like it's to loose.. did u say you got a waist clincher? Where did u order it from. ?
February 27, 2015
I still have my same XL garment from Alkon and got it taken in and just started using a waist cincher. The sizing seems to be a bit tricky, most reviews say order size up from size chart yet i ordered a large (chart size) and was too big and ordered a medium and can have on last hook so i ordered a small as well to wear in a couple weeks (hopefully). I am using TruFigure sport one with 3 hooks that i ordered from classicshapewear for about $68 and ordered the ann chery 2023 sport with 3 hooks too in a small for $48 on ebay. I have a long torso and don't really like the way the Trufigure one fits too much because gives me a roll on my upper back and i've read the ann chery 2023 is more for longer torso's so i'll see.

Garment taken in..finally!

Bumbum32
Must've went to over ten places in the past week or so to find someone to take my garment an inch on each side, it became such a mission but it's finally done! My waist cincher is coming this week as well. The garment wasn't giving me enough compression and felt my waist wasn't going down at all. My masseuse said she thinks i have muscles on the side of my stomach (obliques?) but hoping it's just swelling and my waist will go down some more. I bought the Ann Cherry sport waist cincher on ebay for about $53 with shipping! Just hoping the size is right, bought a large. Been measuring my waist with a string then measuring with a ruler lol measuring tape disappeared. I believe my waist was a 31 and a 29.5ish recently? Glad waist cincher has 3 hooks thats what really made me pick it.

I personally don't see a huge difference but i def notice other people noticing and wondering lol. I tried on a pair of legging jeans i bought from GAP before sx and they fit too tight where booty was kinda being squashed down or so i hope thats what it was lol. I took them off in two seconds hahaa. Going to wait a lil longer and try on a few more of my jeans and if not...JEAN shopping! Hoping it's a lot easier to find flattering jeans after this sx.

My butt looks pretty nice and shapely in my denim leggings from target. Trying to find another pair but don't find too many pull on jeggings and would like to try them on. I have a good amount more booty on top and middle, hoping lil more goes to the bottom.

Posting some pics soon. Hard to take a good pic, feel every pic looks either bigger or smaller than it does in person and wanna show as accurate as possible.

I need to get a new body suit.. the one I have, is getting to big and isn't as right as it should be. I went to the mall today and tried on jeans for fun.. but nothing fit.. I'm so swollen still. I'm order anther body suit soon. How's jersey city treating you? I barely go over that way. I'm in palisades park
February 17, 2015
I'm still swollen too. dr. Alkon said i would be for months! I would recommend some jeggings. Seems like a lot of the girls on RS here won't wear jeans for at least a month or so. I just took mine in bc didnt want more compression on my hips or the thong thingy any tighter. Jersey city is alright, nothing to boast about lol. How are you feeling? Are you content so far, do you notice a difference with your love handles?
February 26, 2015
I can see the love handles going down but still swollen. He said the same thing about being swollen .. it's the weirdest feeling from the lipo.. it feels like something is hanging off my body. But nothing is there. Lol I really can't wait to see the finally results .. I want my waist to stay tiny .. like in looks In the garment! Summer is coming soon and tiki bar awaits... I wanna buy jeans so bad lol.. and bathing suits
February 20, 2015
Yes that was my problem I wanted my pics to look accurate as we'll and yes wants it drop it will get way bigger trust me I did not believe at first
