Women sometimes contact me after surgery in tears.
And it happened again recently.
A woman who was supposed to start mentoring with me before her operation chose not to prepare properly. Only after surgery did she realise how much she had underestimated the recovery.
Because surgery is not just the day you enter the operating room.
To arrive truly prepared, you need time.
You need a plan.
You need to organise your body, your home, your compression, your drainage, your support and your recovery.
For me, that preparation starts around 90 days before surgery.
I have already been through this process three times, and I am preparing for my fourth surgery now.
I know what recovery can feel like when everything is organised — and I also know how overwhelming it can become when you are in pain and suddenly have to figure everything out afterwards.
Recovery without planning, without a clear structure and without someone guiding you can become incredibly hard.
You do not have to feel alone, confused or overwhelmed.
Let yourself be supported by someone who has actually lived through what you are about to face.
Preparation can change the whole experience.
If you are preparing for lipedema surgery and want help creating your own 90-day preparation plan, send me a private message. 💜
