EYES AND LIPO AFTER 2 WEEKS

I'm still not ready to post pictures - need a little more healing first.

My eyes are looking good.  The incision on my right eye is a little wider than I had expected, but I'm not going to fret over it.  It will show a little to the outside of the eye, but it can be covered with make-up.  The important thing is that I have eyelids again!  Still a bit of swelling above the eye, but that will go away.

My tummy is looking good.  There is still quite a bit of swelling in certain parts from the fluid buildup, but the doctor said that is to be expected.  He said I won't see the final results for a number of weeks yet.  But I definitely have a waistline.  My love-handles are gone except for a little swelling.  I had a lymphatic massage this morning which really helped to break up some of the fluid pockets and get the fluid moving.  I can feel the difference.  The massage was a little rough.  It felt like kneading bread - push, pull, stretch.  I can do some massage here at home too.  She suggested a lot of water and walking at least 20 minutes, twice a day.  I just finished a 1 mile Walk Away the Pounds and will do more walking tomorrow.

So I'm on the way.  I go back to the doctor in 3 months to have the "after" pictures taken.  I'm anxious to see the difference.  He told me today that he took "a lot, a LOT" of fat out so the change should be very noticeable.  I can see it now - I can't wait to see it then!
