5 week update
Well its been 5 weeks and I feel ok. I workout everyday. I do more ab workouts than anything. I am happy with my flanks but still have that belly buldge. Hopefully by month 3 it will go down. I am hoping it's just swelling and not left over fat. I keep telling myself things will look better by month 3. Can you still be swell and not feel like it?
2 week post op
So today makes two weeks. I am feeling much better and can't wait till June when I'll finally start seeing some results. I have some lumps here and there nothing to crazy. I can't wait till I can do a full crunch or sit up w/o any pain. My Dr. Told me he took 8lb of fat out or 5. I can't remember. Sometimes I think my stomach shrunk b/c I really don't have an appetite like that anymore. I get full really fast when eatting. Happy Healing ppl.
7 days later
I am still swelled (over course). My stomach is very tender. I still have to watch how I bend because it hurts sometimes. My bowels are slowly coming back to normal. I wear my waist trainer about 8 hrs a day or as tolerated to help with the compression and to give me some type of form. I just ordered a new waist trainer the. The old one is not that tight anymore. I have very little lumps and bumps. I wonder if its because I massage my belly every morning with the arnica cream. I won't say if the procedure was worth it or not until my 2 to 3 month update. I also walk on the treadmill for about 30 min a day at a slow pace just to stay active.
Provider Review
Dr. Brenman was very nice and took the time to answer all my questions. The office manager Claire was awesome. She told me the good, the bad and the ugly of smartlipo. Everything was mainly good.
