I'm in soooooooo much pain. I actually cried to my bf and told him I regret it so much. But now I'm under heavy meds so it feels like a very painful period. And gosh I'm super swollen cuz I feel it and I had my bf. take a pic and I look bigger than how I started. In draining fluids and blood which is so gross. But part of it.

Jan92014 I'm like a little pain tolerance I can take pain...did the pain last longer? if so how many days? when did you start seeing changes?
January 29, 2014
Honestly the first right after the surgery take the pain meds they give you and try to sleep right away cuz once the anestisia comes off it's hell. I only had that much pain for the first 3 hours after surgery. Then I was just sore and today It only hurts when I take a shower and have to put the garment on. And changes I've been taking pics everyday and my body is completely different.

I been walking around and sleeping on my stomach. As directed by the doc. But I feel as it I'm getting more swollen. Tomorrow I see my doc so I'll ask. Also I'm constipated, I know it's an effect of all the meds but ugh it sucks. And the sleep on my stomach is killing me :(. I ordered a pillow cuz ill kill my neck. I'm planing on not sitting for 6 weeks. I hope I can do it. I mean I had to get into a cab today and lay side
Ways cause I don't want to mess this up!! I really like the way I look. When I don't
Have the garment off but I know I still have a long way to
Go.

Give your body sometime to heal, you look great. Comparing your before and after pics I can see an improvement. It will take sometime before you see your end results, you'll be fine. You look great!

He took my stitches off and told me I was healing very nicely. Now it's time for massages. I'm going to start scheduling them for next week. I hear that those are super painful. Also I was surprised he said he took a lot of fat out. I mean I weight normally 130 pounds and I didn't think I had so much, I was fit and healthy. He explained to me that i will be swelling more and less and more again during this healing process. I see him in two weeks. I'm done taking pain meds as Vicodin doesn't do much and I can tolerate the pain. My biggest concern is sleeping on my stomach, my arms get the worst of it, they are always sore. If your going to do this procedure I recommend a lot of pillows and someone there to help you. My bf stayed home for this week and honestly I wouldn't have made it if it wasn't for his help cuz I'm a big baby !!

Your butt looks lovely. So after the buttock fat transfer you got go for massage? Why is that? And if you don't what will happened?
January 29, 2014
It's to distribute and keep the blood flow on my buttocks. It helps the fat from dying and my body returns to normal. Right now my butt it's pretty hard.

For how long you have to do the message? Is that extra payment beside the surgery?
February 1, 2014
I called the center I do have to pay for the massages. I'm gonna do them on a weekly basis
February 2, 2014
I realized I answered the question you asked me thinking I was answering some one else. Sorry the massages are for liposuction areas like my tummy and my back only because you might get hardened areas or lumps. The stuff I wrote up there was trying to tell someone else that a multivitamin and walking would help with the healing sorry. !!
