My top lip has literally decreased in half in a matter of hours! It really is extraordinary! I will talk all about the party in my post tomorrow, but all of that non stop talking I did today with family and friends really must have worked wonders. LOOK at my lip earlier today, and a picture I just took this afternoon. Click on each photo to make it bigger! WHOA! I am THRILLED! I may even go back to work tomorrow, we'll see :)
This is the photo I posted this morning
and this one I just took!

That's really unbelievable! As you mentioned in your last post, when looking at other people's blogs it's easy to see post-op pictures and think the person is, what word did you use, oh yeah, nuts! I don't want to discount your alarm at having different features than before, but you really should know, you look stunning! And your chin doesn't look masculine at all.

Dani, I literally started cheering for you when I saw these pics today at lunch on my cell phone!! I couldn't wait to get home and write you! This is astonishing really that the swelling all of the sudden dramatically reduced in a matter of hours!! Are you taking any sort of herbal supplement or something else for the swelling? Maybe all you really needed to do was talk a lot! hehee
Btw, I also notice the lovely shape of your face coming through! It's very apparent you have the "ideal" oval shape! Gorgeous!! You really are so beautiful - inside and out!

WOW....Must be nice to solve issues by talking!! LOL! I say that lightheartedly....I'm happy for you. And you look gorgeous!!

THANK YOU everyone! I really was blown away too, I know it may not look super drastic, but the photos were taken only a few hours apart, so it really was so exciting to see!
Tara- I took Bromelain for a few days, but haven't taken it in like 3 days because I keep forgetting. Maybe it's just kicking in now, but really all that I can attribute it too is how much talking I did. I am thinking the stretching of my lips and pulling them together more to annunciate words so people can actually understand me probably helped a lot. It got my lips moving and not just stuck in one place the whole time. Not sure if swelling can decrease that way, but it worked for me! :)
