So I am now 2months & 8days post op & I am still very happy with my results. I still get zings in my back but my stomach is okay. I am down to 198lbs & still on my diet. The diet has been getting harder since I have been more stressed out but I can hang. I still have a couple of knots but I ordered a ultra sonic massager to help out with that. The only thing I am not happy with is that I have more celluite now then before. Skin isn't as tight as before and my legs look more ripply. I am going to take a krava maga class & see if that helps. Other then that I think I look much better then before but still can improve as long as I stay on this path I will get there. Oh, I still feel like I want a bigger butt so I will wait a year and then go over it all.

I say wait until winter break from school & just try to get off work. As long as you don't have a very demanding job you will make it. Everyone in her office is very nice. I knew I wasnt' going to end up with a totally flat stomach but it is a lot better then before! I am on diet pills now & taking a kickboxing class in school so hopefully I will be shrinking more. I will say this also that if I still had that extra weight I wouldn't be able to keep up at all in class.

I will, the front & back is where I can see the most change. I have lost more weight, & hope to get down to 180 soon. One thing you should ask is if the Dr can use some of your old scars to go thru & not make new ones.

Okay, I am ready to stop wearing this compression garment! The only thing is when I dont' have it on all I want to do is get back in it! LOL! I am too small for my corset now, and have to find new ways to keep the compression on. I got a waist cincher and yeah it fits my wasit but it's hard to get it over my hips. Most of my clothes no longer fit. I was a size 18/20 before & now I am down to a 14/16! It would be a 12/14 if it wasn't for these big ol hips. I am happy but got drama too. My boyfriend does not like my new confidence & all he can tell me now is that I cheated my way to were I am & that I still need to do a lot more work. Is my body were I want it to be no, but I am trying to enjoy the steps I have made regardless of how I got here. SMH!

So I like how I look from the front and the back but I am still not like the side view. I know it's a world of improvement and and I am still swollen but I still feel like there is room for improvement. I started seeing a weightloss Dr & got some diet pills. I am now down to 206lbs and still got room to lose even more weight. I see a few girls don't have real expectation for surgery & think someone need to really sit them down and tell them the truth about all this. Unless it's a bypass or something of that nature surgery is NOT for weightloss! It will not make Precious look like Byonce. You got to be real about all this. IJS I know how I looked and wasn't excepting to look like a model after all of this so I am happy to have come this far. So stay strong and be real.

i think you look really good now. She did a nice job, and frankly, it is a great price. BBL will have the best result when you are in your ideal weight range. Give it sometime and you will be there girl!
