That's a great timeline! If that follows suit for me, I would be having surgery before my 32nd birthday and that would be an awesome gift to myself!

Islandgirl, did you try low dose of magnesium? muscles are in soft tissue. low level cramps will cause. as you have lost weight, it takes a long time for muscles to rebuild . magnesium and K2, one , taken daily. used in combination have been my best fix for hip pain. If you want to see if it works try 1-2 tablespoons of milk of mag... what ever you think yypur stomach will tolerate. ( laxative dose is 4-6)
Sunny,
lower back vertebrae out of alignment will cause this... to check that alignment lay on your back, no pillow,under shoulders or head.. on bed with knees flexed, knees bent to 90 degree. heels even, but not necessarily touching...if one knee is higher, back is out on that side. chiro showed me how to put in alignment.
take oppposite arm hook inner elbow behind the knee which is lower, rock back on bed clearing that hip . return to position... to set the alignment...give both legs a hug with both elbows hooked inside the bend of both legs and roll back to upper back.. again no pillow....
Atre you having muscle cramps? if so magnesium in citrate form would prob help. ( if you want to find out before buying mag citrate capsules...use a single dose of Milk of magnesia.. a dose of 2 tablespoon gives me relief from cramping within 15 min. It is hard for me to keeep mine up. and is one of my long standing problems.. I had tail bone injury from age 18, so often awaken to turn over. heating pad might help as well. If it is mineral problem try adding K2, which helps move minerals to proper place in body.
when i sit my backbone rubs everthing... have to have a very padded chair.. welcome to the club of discovering many body changes. Hope these things help...
Thank you, Leslie. Does lipo make the shape of your body weird? Have you had any regain since lipo? If so, where did the fat go once you had all these fat cells removed?

Thank you for posting this! Makes me feel a bit more at ease about my up coming surgery (starting 2 weeks of slim time tomorrow).
I've had lipo to thighs, tummy, arms, back. I'm a bruiser so I had lots of pretty colours. Lipo will work but it does leave the skin. Last lipo I had BBL with the fat spun down and injected into my butt. I also had completion of a posterior lift which also helped with excess skin. Had it done a Usculpt. Cost varies depending on areas, local or anaesthetic. Best is to go for a consult. Who ever you choose make sure they work with weight loss patients
