Sorry it's been a while since I last updated! Hope everyone had a great New Years! I'm back at work, I have a desk job and sitting for 8hrs was no fun so I been working half days this week. I am on the treadmill walking 3-4miles as instructed by my PS. I am also out of my CG and in Spanx. I'm in the one that goes from your thigh to below your bra. It was $90 from Dillard's it's a size small and works amazing! As far as my pain level it's about a 5 I'm not taking anything for the pain and sometimes I find myself tossing and turning at night because its very uncomfortable laying down. I sometimes get burning sensations on my sides but my PS said that was normal and is part of healing. I still have a couple stitches in around my belly bottom because it wasn't closed all the way. They come out on Jan.10th. I'm eating healthy and I'm drinking pristine shakes in the morning and after work out. The bruseing had gotten a lot better and is slowly going away. I'm using Arnica Gel and it works really good. The swelling is there but not too too bad. However, I did notice after walking/ jogging 4 miles tonight I am a little more swollen than usual.

You look great doll!!! Quick question since you had your procedure would you say your butt is more noticable or rounder since you took fat away from your waist?

Wow!! you look so thin and awesome!! i did some sculpting/lipo on tummy and i see the difference already (today it is 7 days). Are you still wearing the foam. Seems everyone has a different opinion as to the foam. my PS said to wear it as much as possible and other say it makes no difference. any insight? wishing you a very speedy recovery..

I wore he foam for the 1st week then it started leaving a big roll at the bottom of my stomach so my ps told me to buy Spanx and start wearing that. The one I got is 24% spandex and he said to make sure it was tight enough so I got a small and it fits perfect. The roll that was there went away that same day!

ouch ouch your inner thighs look sore. But the bruising should leave in 2 weeks. Are you taking arnica tablets at all?? It does help with swelling. I think I will get my inner thighs done exactly in the same area you did as I can see the lines he wrote on.

Ouch is right my inner thighs Hurt now more than they did before. The honestly feel like I have a big brick in each one! Hopefully that hardness will go away soon. As for Arnica tablets I'm not sure what that is. I use Arnica Gel. Good luck with your surgery!
