Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

I am 10 weeks post-op today! I have had a few people message me about my PS, Dr. Hall. Feel free to ask me any questions--I highly recommend him!
I worked out today for only the third time since surgery. I attempted to exercise at about 6 weeks out and again at 8. I LOVE Jazzercise, but even with doing the low-impact moves (no jumping), I was still uncomfortable working out. Nothing really hurt, it was more a fear of injury followed by discomfort and swelling the next day. Today, I was able to do the high impact workout with no issues (we'll see if I'm swollen/sore tomorrow).
I am able to stand up straight and finally suck in my tummy. There are times I feel tightness, but I really have no pain. I am still careful in some ways, like I don't want to do a ton of lifting and I really hate when my kids elbow me in my hips (lipo area).
Getting dressed is no longer a nightmare. I enjoy shopping again and don't have the daunting task of finding clothes that hide my tummy. It's amazing how much longer tops are now w/o all the excess skin. I can even wear white tops without a cami underneath! Yay!!!

4 1/2 weeks PO- Everything is going great! At my last appointment I asked the PS how much was removed...My large piece was 5.6lbs, and he suctioned 2.5 off the sides (some of which was fluid). Although I didn't do this as a way to lose weight, I'm happily down about 10lbs. I get swollen by the end of the day, so I like to wear the binder at night. I can sleep in my normal position, which is on my side with one leg hiked up, sort of twisted around. I go back to the PS in a few days, and hopefully he'll clear me for swimming and bathing!

2 WEEKS PO: I'm on my third day back to work. I'm doing pretty good. I definately feel some pain and am hunched over severly by the end of the day. I stand up nice and straight and feel good in the mornings. I have been sleeping in my bed, on my back, with one pillow under my knees. I never knew I could fall asleep on my back! I will go see my PS Monday for a check up. I have a few stitches in my belly that still need to be removed. I think they may be infected, but I can't tell for sure. Everything else is great. I can't seem to get all the marker washed off my body from where he marked places for lipo. I'm sure it will wear off w/time.
