So it's been 1 month since. Most of the bruising has gone. Measurements haven't changed much again. Definately less swollen, the pictures show. I still have twinges of pain here and there. Mostly not in any achy pain anymore. Mostly happy so far. Obviously everything is still settling so not making final judgements for a while.

You have had amazing results!! I am thinking about getting my upper arms done, I struggle with that area and no matter what I do they will not go down and still seem giggly, do you notice a difference in them since you had it done there so far?

Yes definitely. I think my arms have had the best results out of all the areas I got done. I've lost 4cms off of each arm. I don't feel self conscious about flabby arms at all anymore :)

I am so glad to hear that. It seems no matter what I do our how much I work out mine are flabby. I cannot wait to get it done. How long did you feel pain? I had a TT and lipo so it is hard to say how long the recovery from the actual lipo was.

You are looking good. How many and what areas did you have done? You were not allowed to take your garment off for a week? Even in the shower? Could have you bought a second garment and Changed immediately following shower? Just asking to see if this might be a good option for me. By this time in three days I should be in recovery after my procedure.

1 Week Post Procedure

Feeling stiff still and can't fully extend my limbs. Had my check up today, such a long long drive to Tweed :S. I'm healing well and the nurse said I've got some fluid/swelling still which is normal. Finally I'm out of that god damn suit, I'm washing it right now. Very bruised still but that's not bothering me. She said I'll notice more final changes at about 3 months when we definately know all the swelling etc has eased.

I go in for my consul tomorrow… I'm so confused ! I know surgery recovery differs no one is the same, the lipo I wanted said "no down time" up the next day and out n about… I watched video read and read for months and looked at each type, smart,jet,Vaser…Now, I'm like wth did I watch this couldn't be the out n about lunchtime lipo and I'm reading reviews and everyone is wrapped up ! May I ask, what lipo you decided on and is there anything you wished you would have asked your doctor. I personally have a plane to catch 3 days after , so tomorrow I was going to ask about my options . My plan is lower tummy , under chin and little on my bra line in back… the "ran over by a truck" I cant do. I need hit by a a few tennis balls by accident type lipo :)

Hi :) well I had 6 areas done which was hard and the doctor initially wasn't sure if there would be enough local anesthetic to go around (since they base how much they can use on weight). I had my upper arms, lower abs, hips, outer thighs, inner thighs and extension of inner thighs. Since it was so many areas the hit by a truck is correct. But since you are only having lower abs, chin and bra line you shouldn't be feeling too bad. I think I had the type that used something called tumescent? Personally I didn't look too much into which type they used, I just wanted local not general anesthetic and a good doctor with good results. Hope this helps :)

Thighs at the widest point 95cms
Thighs L 57cms R 58cms
Above knee L 42cms R 41cms

Wholly crap. I probably don't sound as enthused as I would be, but that just because I still feel like crap. Trying to stay motivated to keep moving around is more difficult today.
