5 months out - healing and happy
It has been 5 months since my surgery and I feel almost back to "normal". Seriously, with the exception of occasional swelling and numbness around my incisions and around some areas where liposuction was performed, I feel fantastic. I have been exercising consistently and for once in my life I am able to see the results. Dr. Fisher’s explanations of what to expect following my surgery have been spot on. He said that gravity would eventually take hold and it has; especially in my thighs and buttocks. They still look amazing to me and I couldn’t have asked for better results. I am including comparison photos for you to decide for yourself. They are a few months old, so I will update with more photos at 6 months post op next month. Thank you all for your encouraging and kind words! I have been following many of you and want to congratulate all of you on your wonderful accomplishments.

5 Weeks Post Op and feeling GREAT
Yesterday was my final post op appointment with Dr. Fisher. He said I am healing great and I believe he is almost as excited with my results as I am. I am really going to miss him. Don’t get me wrong, I am thrilled that I have been released to back to work next week and I have the A-OK to increase my activity to do pretty much whatever I want to, but he is a terrific person and I really enjoy talking with him. I am certain he would welcome a visit from me or any of his patients any time.
I have not had any complications and am very fortunate that I am recovering and healing so well. I am still having pain on occasion (usually in the afternoon/evening time) and my lower back and lower abdomen swells off and on, but overall, I am feeling fantastic. Isn’t it funny how our minds work when it comes to pain? I can’t remember how I felt yesterday much less 5 weeks ago. I know it’s a good thing, but it is strange. I have had a lot of small but significant accomplishments over the past several weeks. I have graduated from my recliner to my bed at night, made a trip to the grocery store (with my husband), survived swelling from hell, shaved my legs, got a much needed pedicure and My big accomplishment for today was throwing out my toilet “booster” seat.
Thank you again for your posts and photos. They are so educational and inspiring.

you look amazing... Good luck getting back into the work routine.. First couple of days really suck I wore my compression first two weeks back for my 12 hour shifts. Being on your feet for that long is a big change when you are not used to it.. I just turned 9 weeks yesterday. Was 4 week 4 days when I returned.. Rest when you can and take some Aleve or Ibuprophen along for swelling pain just in case. Congrats on your results

Thanks for your suggestions and nice comments. I figured it would be a tough transition, but I am ready (sort of). How have you been doing with your exercising? Are you able to do everything you did pre surgery at this point? Were you afraid at first? Any suggestions?

Been doing t25 minus the ab intervals and burpees. Afraid to try those full version have been doing the modified.. Cardio I have no problem with, I plan on updateing my page today with some new pics. I have been helping make firewood and that is a workout alone. I swell a lot still.. Esp after activity and that is with wearing compression during? My mons gets super swollen looks like a bag of water in there ? not pretty.. Some area I am not happy with and will discuss my PS in June. I am sure there is some lipo in my future. I am starting Les Mills pump this week build the muscle back up and then maybe combat? Or Insanity Max 30 for the second round :) Love that program makes me feel invincible!! Yes I was very afraid of busting a suture cause you still get so many pains. But you gotta start somewhere right>?? I figured if he told me at 6 weeks I was ok then I should be ok. Just listen to your body and you will do fine.. Modify when you need. I tried to start with Piyo and it was too much stretching on the core.
