Over 8 months

WORTH IT$7,001
So I am a few days over 8 months. Its definitely been awhile since I posted but everything is great. I been busy working and exercising. I cut out beef and pork from my diet and I'm feeling good. I haven't really lost a lot of weight but mostly inches. Swelling is very minimal unless I intake a lot of sodium or alcoholic beverages. Overall I am very satisfied. I haven't had a follow up appointment at all. My last appointment was in February and I waited over a hour to be seen and just left. My time is valuable and I refused to wait any longer.
Anywhooo I hope everyone is doing well!! ????

Almost 5 months postop and still swelling
BrandnewforyouMarch 21, 2018
Hey beautiful friends....it's been awhile since I've posted anything. I was hoping my next post was going to talk about how flat and non-swollen I am but unfortunately it is just the opposite. I wake up pretty flat but by mid day I don't even look like I've had surgery. I just knew by 3 months it would be mostly gone but nope here I am 5 months and still the same issues.
I even workout almost 5 days a week and I feel like I haven't lost a pound. I never lost any weight from surgery which I just don't understand. How can you remove 4.5 L of fat and not lose one pound. I'm pretty sad and over it.
I don't know if I'm over exerting myself or what. But I'm gonna start back wearing my compression I'm tired of feeling swollen and sad!
He are some updates pics from pre surgery, one, month, and 4.5 months. I see some differences but not fully what I was expecting. I guess these celebrities are removing ribs or something to have a 21 inch waist...Lol.
And I'm not saying I look bad I just want the swelling to stop.

Omg removing ribs, I literally busted out laughing at that!
I see a big difference from pre to post! Your waist is smaller, beautiful curves and toned. Swelling is the real deal, I'm 8 months post and on a diet, ate pretty clean yesterday and by bedtime I looked 5 months pregnant! It's a constant issue, try not to be so hard on yourself, your beautiful!

Lol.... I'm serious. That's the new thing remove lower ribs to create a smaller waist.
But I do see a difference as well. I just can't blv this swelling. So if you're still swelling at 8 months, I might as well stop complaining. Wait for a year to see how it is. Thank you so much!

Yes girl, do your best to cut salt, my friend still swells a yr out! I kinda mentally told myself to deal with it, at least that awful pouch I had is gone! Oh and if I drink, forget it, I swell like a ball on, went on a cruise last month, had way too much fun, a combo of being active everyday, eating not so well, dancing and drinking and boom, I looked pregnant every night lol
It'll be ok, hang in there! Does it hurt to remove a rib or two? Lol

Oh wow....Yea we are going on vacation next month. I'm gonna look like a balloon! Cause I'm definitely going to eat and drink nonstop! Sigghhh....That's sad to know. Well I'm gonna reduce my salt but lord I hate bland food...☹
March 21, 2018
I'm sure it does. But it's not that serious. I'll take the waist that I have...lol
March 22, 2018
Lol, it's a vacation, enjoy it and start back up when you get back. Try Mrs. Dash for flavor, I don't like bland food either, I've gotten used to it tho, I couldn't eat eggs without salt yuck, I stopped using salt and now I'm used to it. You've got this!

Hey hun I’ve read your story and I am very impressed with your results. You look damn good I got a tummy tuck May 11, 2017 and I am celery disappointed with my results and I paid $7375 I think I’m going to go and talk with Dr. Msncoll to see if he can give me the results that I want. Before my TT my waist was a 44 but now I’m a 36 I also weigh 198 now but before the TT I wore 215 and I’m 5’3 I see a difference sometimes but a lot of times I don’t he didn’t do much lipo to my abdomen at all but I can tell my muscles are really tight. I went to see Dr. Rosenblum but he told me that I just needed to work out and loose 40 lbs to see my results but I don’t think so I want this fat sucked out of my stomach now lol. So thank you for sharing your journey I have a few pics up what do u think of my results.
March 21, 2018
Hey hun thank you! I'm sorry you aren't happy with your results. I checked out your review and you do look much smaller but I understand you aren't as flat as you would like to be. I actually went to Dr. Rosenblum as well for a consultation. I really loved him personality but he didn't want to do lipo on me. He said I just needed to lose weight and referred me to their diet plan. I told him absolutely not. I've dieted, exercised, and got a personal trainer and it hasn't helped this pouch. I want it sucked out! So that's why I didn't go to him. Dr. Mancoll was honest and said he could get the job done and he did. I'm very happy. So I would definitely have a consultation with Dr. Mancoll. But I don't know if they would see you yet until it's been after a year since your last surgery. Good luck beautiful!
March 21, 2018
Thanks for responding I’m gonna go to see what he tells me I wish I would of did more research b4 I got it.

Hi Ebski1982! I also went to see Dr. Rosenblum, can I private message you? I have a few questions. Thank you.

3 month mark
BrandnewforyouJanuary 28, 2018
Well here I am 3 months and 3 days post. I thought by now swelling would be gone, but that is not that case. I still swell to the point I don't even look like I've had surgery. It's a little discouraging but I know the day will come when the swelling stops. I don't wear my compression garment anymore but sometimes it takes great will power not to do so because I get tired of being so swollen. I have been working out almost every day and that certainly doesn't help the swelling. Maybe I need to cut back on salt again and start back drinking pineapple juice. Swelling is the only issue I have. Once in a while I wake up very stiff, mostly in my back. But everything is well. It was refreshing to see my underwear baggy and falling off my waist! I'll post monthly at this point. Hope all is Well! ????

how does the pineapple juice help?

You look awesome and there is a difference I see from the pic to now. I’m thinking of getting lipo or TT. Thanks for sharing. Your results are great
February 1, 2018
Thank you! I definitely see a difference but some days I don't with this swelling. I couldn't handle that large scar with a TT. But a TT has great results as well. Good luck!
February 1, 2018
Damn honey, looking too good. I'm loving your results. I have swelling too so I still wear my garment while at work, otherwise I'd be absolutely miserable. I'm hoping the weird sensation I get when wearing clothes without the garment goes away soon because it's distracting. Keep healing girlie.
February 2, 2018
Thanks so much! Yes it will go away. It took a couple of months for me. But I know exactly how you feel. Hang in there, the best yet to come!
February 2, 2018
You look gorgeous girl, I get the swelling part tho, it can be very frustrating, but you look amazing even if your swollen. I take bromelain, it does help along with cg and do my best to avoid salt, not always easy, but every little bit helps :)
February 2, 2018
Thank you so much! I think it's my salt intake... I'm gonna have to reduce it and maybe where my CG a few hours throughout the day. It's definitely not easy!
