New tips and tricks for progress
$4,800
As I try to get used to this new belly and get rid of the small but annoying pouch that i have left I thought I'd share a few tips that i think have helped me recently.
1. Keep your compression garmet on at all times, if not you can get a crease
2. Massage yourself- I had so many hard spots in my belly and especially my back until I asked my hubby about 2 weeks ago to message it. Like magic things started falling in place, stomach would go down faster and I wasn't as stiff. I would also message myself as much as possible
3.Water- keeps you peeing and fluids out
4. Exercise! - the weight is falling off so fast before the surgery I was a 16 now I'm a 12..changing my diet and doing yoga or walking 2 to 3 times a week has helped.
5. Fiber pills- has helped me stay regular and get rid of waster
6. WAIST TRAINER- I've waist trained or about 7 years now, way bofore this huge craze but I was always scared to use it after Lipp but I think it's helped shape me even more. I sweat like hell which has helped get rid of the pouch and by morning my stomach looks wondeful. I train may 2 to 3 days a week

1 month post op!
So I've posted on goid days and bad days. At this point I can bend, sleep well, walk fast, etc. Finally starting to feel like myself again. After my last drain 2 weeks ago, I vowed to change my diet and I have. Of course I've had a few dabs in bad stuff but mostly salads. I went to the doc today and didn't have much fluid left at all, but he drained me anyway. Just like I like. So all is coming together nicely, even tho I'm healing slowly. I'm just excited. Belive it or not tho, I still don't feel as good as I thought I would. I still have significant fat to lose in my arms and legs. Just goes to show that happiness is a state of mind and confidence is too. So I'm gonna keep working on me!
I will say, I wore a pair of drawstring pants without my girdle and now I have a crease in my stomach. Doc said it would go away but we will see...

I'm confused. How did you get the burn ? Wrinkles ? Your point of the surgery is for a perfect, flatter tummy. Idk. I'm not win over by these people. Best of Luck to recovery..

You look awesome. I had lipo 4/14 and still swollen. I don't look as good as you're looking. My stomach is still big, lumpy and hard. I also developed diastasis recti.

Hi Thanks so much!. The burn I assume came from the remaining solution that was left in the pouch.

Thank you! You are lucky if yiu feel no pain. Yes I had horrible sagging and Just this week I've seen a difference. Make sure you eat well as my doc said much of my retention was due to bad diet. at this point I belive the pouch will go away but with time.

Are you still in a lot of pain, I believe I went in three days after you but I'm still in pain all the time either taking Tylenol or Motrin. I have to take Tylenol at least 3 or 4 times a day and the Motrin twice a day versus when I first got the surgery I was taking the Motrin 4 times a day. I had to get a second prescription and I'm going in for my follow up tomorrow and may need a third.

I went to my follow up appointment today and he said that I have pockets of fluid still in me. He gave me 3 water pills and told me that if the fluid does not go away he will have to stick a needle in me and drain me (YIKES!!!) I take the water pill 30 minutes later and surprisingly I'm not in as much pain as before. So now I'm wondering if the reason why I was in so much pain was because of the fluid I was retaining. Now I'm just sore and I get sharp pains from time to time.

Yes, the pain was Def due to the fluid. I've been drained 3 times aND love it. You feel no pain and the drainage is not what you think. My swelling and fluid were so intense as he took out 12 lbs so I don't think the water pills would have worked for me!!
