3 days post -op

Incisions are Completely dried, no more drainage from the 2nd night. Have a very bad constipation but I have been eating lean with a lot of vegetable and fruit, this kinda helps. My weight is ~168lbs now ( ~175lb 2 weeks before the surgery). I feel nausea and dizzy a lot. Very sore to stand up and down, and I walked very slow on the 3rd morning, but feel much much better on that afternoon. No more tension pulling my belly when standing up! Less pain and more comfortable. The pills make me feel sick, tired, drowsy and sleepy but they are all expected. My husband replaced all the pads with band aids since there wasn't any more drainage. He applied the cream for the scars on every incision and I could take a shower very easy now. I still need help to put the garment on and off Every time. I'm very very itchy all over, the sensation isn't That bad once I take off the garment, I could feel my skin on most area... Overall, My belly doesn't show much bruises ( almost nothing), still saggy and swelling a lot. Incisions are healed nicely and my hips are my most favorite part :)).

1 day post op

It was 4 hrs surgery, my surgeon and staffs were fantastic. I took 5 deep breaths and bamn woke up with a new body. Nurses helped me put the garments on before I was totally awake. A lot of drainage after the surgery and husband helped to changed pads constantly especially on my thighs. It wet my garment, and sweat pants ( gross). I Took pain medication every 6 hrs to prevent the pain :) I don't like to deal with the pain so I take them very on time lol, they made me sleepy and drowsy! I need another medication to not making me sleepy so I texted my surgeron and he replied me very fast :) love it. Beside the sore, I can't bend down and all the activities are very slowly. Hurting Everytime I move but once I'm settle down, I'm ok, not discomfort but not too comfortable lol. The end of today I have no more drainage, incision starting to close. My husband helped to take off all the old pads, and the garment. He do the fast wash for my garment while I did the fast shower... he cleaned my incision, put new band aids, pads and put the garment back on for me. Feel comfy now but still very sore. I don't see much bruises. Love my "smaller" but saggy hips for now. My belly is still big and swelling. Hope everything will get smaller soon and the sore go away.

I'm a full time student, have a 1 year old boy. My skin isn't elastic as other so my belly is saggy and part of my inner thigh looks all wrinkle like 70 yo. Thought about lipo and ask my Husband to do this and he's up for it :) went to only 1 consultant and decided to do it with in a month.
My loose and big fat belly, and the hanging outside hip bother me a lot. I'm a type or people who can't loose weight easily. I'm doing yoga right now 3 days a weeks and have been eating < 1200 cal a day for the last 2 weeks. Only see 1-2 lbs drops but it make my system feel greate and "lighter"!
Anyways, I'm posting this review prior to my surgery in 1 day. Never done any surgery in my life, especially being knocked out on the table is never happened to me, this will be first time !!!!! I'm very nervous and scared. Post some picture of my gross body and hope this will change my life.
Could anyone tell me the feeling after waking up form the Surgery especially after being drugs lol....
Well let me know and wish me luck guys :))
I'll keep you all posted...
