I've been thinking about undergoing liposuction...

I've been thinking about undergoing liposuction for most of this year. This is on a background of trying multiple procedures from wraps/ultrasound/etc. I've always carried my fat around my thighs and stomach and have struggled with weight issues in my teenage years. Now I've found a good balance and understand my body more. I'm good at maintaining my weight and know more about diet and exercise. But I still have my chunky bits, which I feel would help me with my lack of self confidence. I just want to feel comfortable in a bikini!
What made me want to share my thoughts is my wavering mind. I want to make sure I'm making the right decision considering how much money it costs and potential complications that could happen. And since I've never had any sedation ever, it's a big decision to make considering this is an elective procedure.
Wondering what people think of my photos too? Am I a good candidate, anyone else have a similar body shape etc

I think you are making a great decision. Your before photos look great so I can imagine what the after picures would look like. When I had my tt and lipo two years ago it was my first time having any surgery that required taking a long nap. :) Just remember, you still have to treat yout body right (diet and exercise) after lipo. Do what makes you feel good inside and out.

If I were you I would go for it. I had a TT, mr and lipo in sept 13 and I'm noticing great results from the lipo. The results from the TT are showing a bit but not as much as I would have liked. My surgeon said he couldn't tighten my mussels as completely because of internal fat. I really should have lost some weight before my surgery. Good luck with whatever you decide. xx

Hi there! Had tickle lipo 2.5 was ago. I think you should just do abs and flanks for much less $$ you look fine now! For me I have legs like yours, but I'm happy with abs looking better so. I can deal with excersing legs and butt. Go for it! But expect pain and soreness. I'm still very very sore! Good luck!

Waiting..

So I've been waiting for a few working days now to hear back from liposuction Australia about confirming my surgery date. Not happy. Email is my best communication method as I work shifts including nights and still haven't got a reply. I am apparently booked in for the 3rd December but I haven't got any paperwork posted and still have to get a blood test prior to. I'm worried that because of someone's lack of reply my date will be moved and I'll have to wait longer. Hate stuff being up in the air, fingers crossed that I'll hear something tomorrow.

Hi there, I've had previous lipo done in Brissy too. My recommendation though is that if you can't get onto them before surgery, you may have no hope after. Good luck, and I wish you all the best x

Damn don't you hate that. I just deleted what I just wrote! ARGH!
So, as I was saying, everything is booked in, I meet with the doctor next Tuesday morning then start the procedure around 1:30pm. I just have to get a blood test tomorrow and pick up a prescription for antibiotics.
They've been good with communication today, organising everything etc.

So I've done my pre-lipo weight and measurements too as below:

Weight 60.0kgs

Upper Arms L 30cms R 30cms
Waist 75cms
Hips 87cms
Thighs at the widest point 102cms
Thighs L 60cms R 61cms
Above knee L 45cms R 46cms

So the countdown begins...
