#ᴀᴅ When I started this #lipedemareductionsurg

#ᴀᴅ When I started this #lipedemareductionsurgeryjourney I was stressing out about #postopcompression to fit me. All the stuff I had seen online just made me even more frustrated.
Then I came across @lipoelastic and they have just been amazing. I have tried #customfitted garments in both a biker short and capri style. I was extremely happy that neither pair rolled up with movement or sleeping! (We all know lippy thigh can eat some shorts 😂) Both of my pairs have a mini zipper on my left hip for ease of getting even on/off. I wasn’t sure if I was going to like the zipper but I actually do. (The zipper came in handy the other evening when I was really sick the one evening and the tightness up on my stomach was bothering me but after unzipping just a bit I was still able to keep compression on my hips and thighs but not make me nauseous. )
I have really happy that there is a company out there like @lipoelastic that created products for us #lipedemaladies
I’ll post a link in my story (and save it to my #lipedema highlight) to check out their site. Use code P͟A͟L͟E͟G͟I͟N͟G͟E͟R͟P͟E͟A͟R͟ for 10% off

As I’ve been preparing for episode 3 of #lipserv

As I’ve been preparing for episode 3 of #lipservicewithpgp today I’ve been thinking a lot about how I wished my mom was still here to see this journey that I’m on. For her to know that I finally got not only an answer but a solution for something that made my life hell since early on... for her to see me truly happy for the first time in idk how long.... for her to see that my redheaded stubbornness has worked in my favor as I didn’t give up depending answers and respect as a human... and for her to learn that the “lumpy thighs” she HATED on herself were probably stage one maybe early stage two #Lipedema as well. Specially since I have learned that my Grandma Ruby (her mom) has a diagnosis of Lipedema 🤯 (second photo shows me around 14/15 and my Gram.)
My mom was my biggest support and never once told me I shouldn’t wear something due to my shape or size. As I got older and saw some of the outfits she bought for me because I begged her for them, I would question as to why she didn’t claim we didn’t have the money. She said why should I tell you it didn’t look good and put that thought in your head if you look and the mirror and think “yes! I want to wear this everywhere” 💜 Now as an adult that is the most amazing thing to me and how I try to be with my son. The kids in our lives will have enough negativity from the outside world we need to be their biggest cheerleaders 📣 even if it’s hard for us to get on board with some of their choices. Like a bathing suit biker short combo that made me look like a literal nyc taxi cab 😂... under my IGTV you can watch @lipedema.living @lipedemalovely and I talking about how we need to support our daughters and younger women in our lives (and see me cry) on Episode #3

Inspired by @porro92 post earlier to #celebrateeve

Inspired by @porro92 post earlier to #celebrateeverything I thought I’d share this #lipedemamilestone ... I f͟i͟t͟ i the tub 🛀 without having to angle on to one of my legs/hips with the other one up out of the water. I can’t remember the last time I could do that. I was probably in my early teens. This might seem like the dumbest thing to be 🤯 about but it’s just another reminder to me that I’m slowly getting closer to having an easier life and that makes me so happy. I know i can’t be the only #lippylady or person struggling with their way to feel excited about something like this.
Have you had a 🤯 victory moment?

We delight in the beauty of the butterfly, but rarely admit the changes it has gone through to achieve that beauty. -Maya Angelou

I look at this first full body photo of myself and just take in all the changes. Not just in appearance but the change in my pain level, the change in my mobility and the change in my happiness. It’s been quite a journey but oh what a thrilling one it has been.

I was #gifted a pair of their #rodeo shoes and have been testing them out both pre op and post op to give an honest review. It’s now up on palegingerpear.com under #lipolymphedema #lymphedema and then #Lymphedemashoes there will also be a story highlight under Lymphedema here on IG for the link.

Scars just mean I’m taking back control... #2monthspostop from #lipedemareductionsurgery #2 which was on my #lipedemasaddlebags and upper thighs.
I feel better than I have ever remember feeling and I am so much happier.... so much so that people are noticing and commenting on it 😁

I really like what you've done to me
I can't really explain it, I'm so into you
It could be the way that you hold me
It could be the things that you say ...

Nothing better than someone being into you for you... all of you looks, personality, sass. Liking someone for the total package makes things so much more fun 😉

#TransformationTuesday... the picture on the left $#TransformationTuesday... the picture on the left was from 2006. Which was pre failed marriage, pre baby, pre gluten free and way before I had any idea what Lipedema was. I was living in Astoria Queens where I had wanted to be for years. I was a nanny during the week and spent my weekends traveling with comedians as a photographer. I was happy as in I loved what I was doing but realistically I was physically and mentally exhausted all the time. The amount of pain I was unknowingly putting my body through is crazy to me as I look back. Having both #celiacdisease and #lipolymphedema with no medical help was basically me slowly killing myself. Drs were always so quick to tell me to lose weight but they never took the time to listen to me when I said NOTHING I’m doing is helping. They just assumed I was lying about even trying. But I had been on diet after diet since about 8 years old and I am an extremely picky eater that really doesn’t eat a lot. (Which always surprises people) My pregnancy in 2008 really saved me cause it lead to me standing up for myself and demanding drs to give me testing for stuff I had googled. It’s sad that it took another 12 years for me to finally be able to take back control of my body from what Lipedema has done to it but I am incredibly grateful that I’m getting the chance at all. I feel a thousand times better with just a fraction of my Lipedema removed that I get antsy wanting to do more. The #Lipedemapain is gone in the spots we’ve tackled already. The stiffness, the aches, the exhaustion, the struggle to move have all lessened if not disappeared completely. The brain fog, 24/7 stuffy nose and forgetfulness .. gone! I’ve noticed a reduction in #inflammation all over not just the surgery spots. My body is on a journey of healing itself and working properly for the first time in 38 years as I continue my #lipedemareductionsurgeryjourney without even having to see my full body results, my face is proof that this has been life changing for me. I hope my transparency a) brings more people to fight for true and proper medical care and b) that more doctors take time to research and test for the “invisible conditions”$

I just love this #lipedemacommunity and how so many different talents are being used to bring awareness. I am honored to be apart of @fc.lipoedeme project to showcase different Lipedema bodies. The green background shows me #miserable pre surgeries. The yellow background shows me #happyandthriving post op 2 surgeries. 😁 please go check out @fc.lipoedeme other artwork. Some of my favorites are the reworked classic art to be Lipedema ladies 💜

Put on the dress
#showthecompression
If they don’t want to be seen with you
They aren’t worth being seen with you

The day I stopped hiding my compression from the world was the start of me feeling free. A single item of clothing shouldn’t stop you from living life. If someone, anyone ... friends, family, strangers don’t want to be around you cause you wear some form of #compressiongarments than they are not worth being seen with you. Someone truly worth your time will not care that you need compression. They should support you in wearing them because if they care they will want you to do the best for your health.

☀️“Little darling, the smiles returning to the faces
Little darling, it seems like years since it's been here
Here comes the sun, doo-doo-doo-doo, here comes the sun...” ☀️
For anyone that doubts how life changing #lipedemareductionsurgery can be look at my smile in this photo and then swipe to my second photo. The photo from last year (white dress) I loved. I thought I looked as happy as I felt that night. I’ve always thought that I was happy and enjoying my life. I didn’t let #lipedema and #lymphedema keep me from friends, dating, having a kid, swimming, or getting tattooed. But the truth is I was miserable and in pain the whole time. I tried my best to mask that pain and put in a brave face. I thought I was doing a good job at that but then I see photos from this past Sunday and post op Cara truly looks happy. And that is 100% due to removing #damagedlipedemanodules from my body and the toxins they hold in them. For the first time in 38 years my body is being given the start at resetting itself and working properly. I’m able to function without pain and due to that I smile without realizing it now... unless of course I’m trying to multitask during a photo shoot (😂 sorry @sandrachilep)
