I'm going back and worth with about 5 lbs of swelling. Some days I'm more swollen than others...
FYI - Swelling and fluid retention from a procedure with lipo is much worse than when there is no lipo done. They not only fill you with lots of fluid but the tissue reacts to all the stress the lipo causes and it blows up (swells).
Hang in there all of a sudden one day you'll weigh yourself and find you dropped like 7 pounds and then the rest will come. Keep in mind recovery from lipo is harder and takes longer than recovery from an operation without lipo.
Best wishes!!!
