I love my results. I can wear fitted shirts without having wrinkly skin show thru. My breast compliments my figure so well. I feel balanced.
I've been working out more...doing T25. I can feel the difference while doing core workouts. Before surgery, it was like nothing was there.
I still have swelling below the belly button, especially during long days. It just pools there. My scar is still dark but I'm working on it!!

4 weeks Post-op and healing well!
ILgalJune 7, 2014
Had my 4 weeks post op appt and my Dr was amazed about how well I was healing.
I wear my binder constantly. It's only off while showering. Can't wait to not need it. I still have swelling but it's getting better. I'm so impatient!! I'm ready to wear regular clothes. My jeans don't fit over my binder. I'm getting a scar from the binder too.
As my breast settle, they get smaller! They are still pretty though.
Can't wait to work this body out again. I still have stretch marks but they really don't bother me anymore!!! I'm loving my results!

How's it going????
June 25, 2014
Hi there, sorry I have not commented or wrote my story as yet. Just so dont know where to start. I am already 7 weeks po and I feel great. Went back to work 2 weeks after the op. I am so amazed at the whole procedure, no pain felt at all! Just to put it out there South Africa also has amazing doctor who creates miracles. I am still having swell hell, and not sure if its because I'm a side sleeper that i get up a bit swollen and get worse as the day goes on. Don't wear my binder, doc said it was fine at 4 weeks because body must get use to no compression.

You look awesome btw! Did your tummy stay as flat as it was straight after or did it change?
June 26, 2014
Good to hear you are still doing well. I don't wear any compression or binder during the day. I do wear the binder at night. My tummy is flat in the morning but swells throughout the day. I am also a side sleeper. I'm still very happy with my results. :)

You do look great, I also would do it again in a heart beat. Exercising is such a pleasure now, no rolls getting in the way and boobs flapping lol

I think you look amazing! I'm worried about the size now, but anything will be be than 36A. :)

Tomorrow is my first day back to work...
ILgalMay 27, 2014
After 18 straight days off. I don't feel ready. I'm still exhausted most of the time. I'm gonna get myself mentally ready and pray today that tomorrow goes smoothly. Then get my uniform out which is already pressed. This Friday will make 3 weeks post op. I will post pics sometime this week.

How did it go today?
May 29, 2014
I was a fast turtle! Since I'm in the military, I have to get a profile from my primary doctor to list my limitations so I did that today. My Dr had concerns about my normal high blood pressure and put me on a low dose pill. Also got something for not sleeping. It was exhausting but this week is a short week so I'll keep trucking!! BTW, your results look amazing. Have you measured your tiny waist since surgery?
May 29, 2014
Thank goodness for short weeks! I haven't measured yet. My swelling is crazy last couple days. Have you tried measuring? I am so excited to see what we look like in a couple months. :)

Hi I'm having my surgery done Aug 26 and I also serve in the military air force I have a question for you how do u like the size of your boobs my doc suggested a 425cc and a 450cc nut I don't want then huge how do u like 400cc
June 4, 2014
My stats before surgery was:
157 lbs
5'8"
34B Bra Size
I like my 400cc but 450 would have been great also! I'm still sitting pretty high and I'm not sure how long it will take before they settle. I did purchase 34D bras but will get measured by a professional before I buy anymore. I think it really depends on what look you're going for. I wanted more natural so I got silicone, moderate plus profile. I also took the rice test. Friday is my 4 week post-op anniversary and will post pics then. Good luck and keep me posted
