Question:
Here are my before pics. I am scheduled for circumferential thigh on 4/12. My PS said he would take about 4-5liters out of each thigh. Think it will help? I have always had huge thighs...I blame it on my german genes.
Again, may I say yours look amazing and I would be thrilled if mine turned out as well.
Is 4-5 liters a lot to take off of each thigh?
I think I'll bounce back pretty quick...I was back 90% 3 days after incision revision and flank lipo. PS said it would just be sore, like I worked out at the gym too hard. I have to get back pretty quick because I'm signed up to run a half marathon through Disneyland in September and I need to start training. I think the lipo will help too because I hate running when my thighs rub together and my shorts ride up. I was debating on doing it now or after the marathon and decided it would be better now...I also hate the yucky rashes that I get from running with thunder thighs!
Answer:
Andi, are you sure your PS said 4-5 litres out of EACH thigh? If so, do you plan on staying overnight in a hospital? I hope so. I looked at your pics and I honestly don't think you need 4-5 litres out of each thigh - -that is A LOT! I had 5 litres out of both of mine. Take a look. Pw is journey. (link in siggy)
Answer:
He said 4-5 liters out of each one. I thought that was a little extreme as well, but I love his work so far. He took 2 1/2 lbs out of each of my flanks. I have to have a blood test prior to surgery, maybe that's to make sure that I can handle that much. Let me tell you, my thighs are bigger than the pics. 30 inches when we measured last night. I'll definitely post after pics once it's done.
Answer:
You're pics look great...your tummy is so flat. Did you drop a few clothes sizes?
Answer:
I was 16 and now am a loose 12 - probably close to a 10 but I haven't gone pants shopping in a while. I'm still shrinking!
That is a lot to be taken out in one shot. Make sure you rehydrate a lot after surgery! Good luck!
Answer:
Thanks, will do about the hydration. One of the reasons I am doing this is because I had an ETT in September and prior to that I was wearing a tight 16, 18's fit well. Now after the ETT, I am wearing a 14 because of the thighs but everything sags in the tummy area. So I could go smaller if only my thigh weren't so big. Everytime I diet, the thighs are the last place to go and even then, they always look out of proportion to the rest of me, ya know?
Answer:
Wow, I have not heard of that much being taken out at one time.. 8-10 liters. I hope all goes well for you. I would really like to see your after shots.
