What drove me to this was many years of midsection weight from my waist to neck. I had water liposuction performed on my stomach/handles, abdomen, flanks, and chest. I am 6'4" 285lbs. Moderate to light exerciser.

I am currently 6 days out of surgery and doing pretty well. First 3 sucked. They put 10 liters of fluid in me and took out 5.35 liters of fat. Went back to work at 4 days, but seemed a bit early. Car ride was tough because on that day i swelled up with hardness like a beer barrel. Made it hard to move.

It seems to have hit its peak on day 5 and looking forward to my day 7 checkup tomorrow
