Dealing with haters!

I have a question for all you dolls. I have a very good friend whom I consider more like family that since surgery has been acting more like a hater than a friend. Recently I went to her daughters party and after zeeing some girls I havent spoken to in a while the first words out her mouth were "so how was recovery?" I felt very offended because I never mentioned to her I had surgery. I just told the truth because I felt put on thr spot. Also my "friend" has made comments like "you can tell you had surgery because you look fake" and "of course she has had surgery, do u think she got her body from the gym?"
All of these comments make me believe she is jealous. Am I overreacting or am I correct in feeling a certain way? And how do I deal with it? Thanks ladies.

Wishing this swelling would stay down!

So I really havent been posting that often because honestly besides swellinh I feel feline. I really have no complaints. I am still going for my massages regularly but even with that, I still suffer from swelling which my dr said is normal for up to 6 months! Ugh. Cant wait for that to happen. I just got back from Puerto Rico and I didnt know how to act with a bikini lol. I'm happy with my results for sure.

Almost one month post op

Almost one month post op and I am feeling more fabulous everyday. I still suffer from swelling here and there but that is normal.
