Day 12
So at day 12 I was able to take off the binder and switch to Spanx! What a relief!! That binder was SO uncomfortable and I'm so happy that I can finally breathe normally again.
I'm finding though that if I don't keep up with the Tylenol during the day I get sore at the end of the night.
All in all I'm healing nicely and I'm loving my new shape!

8 days post op
I went and got my surgery done on December 30!
I got a TT and BA. I choose to have 300cc for my breasts and so far I like them a lot! My surgery went well. it was the recovery that was hard. I had severe constipation from the pain meds and also the antibitoc I was put on made me SO SO itchy all over my body. I had to take a Benadryl to get some relief.
I finally got my drains out (that helped my mood a lot) and also most of the stitches were removed today as well.
I was FINALLY able to shower today too!! That felt amazing!!
So far I'm healing well and I'm in good spirits :)

Hello!
So my surgery is just over a month away!! I still have not decided on a size yet for my breasts. I was originally going to go with 350cc but with my small frame and short stature I found that would put me in a large C range.
I went back to Dr. Deluca and tried on some sizers again to get an idea. What REALLY helped was trying on the actual implants. I found that trying those on helped me A LOT more then just trying on the sizers as it gave me an easier image of what the implants will look like under a shirt. Also I had some pictures taken so I could do the Crisalix 3-D Imagining on Dr. Deluca's website. I had them do the imaging at 4 different sizes: 250cc, 300cc, 325cc and 350cc.

I also did a test that my husband found online of how you can replicate the implants at home so you can play around with the different sizes without having to go back to the doctor.. We found that the most popular one (rice in panty hose) did not work very well. The rice was hard to conform to the correct shape. What we found was that getting hair gel and figuring out the cc's per oz and putting the gel into plastic bags worked the best. It felt very realistic and also we had read that the hair gel was most like the silicone (that was the type of implant I am getting).
Below is me with different sizes we came up with. The order they are in is: me without anything, me with 300cc, me with 325cc, and me with 350cc. I did a straight shot and also a side shot. I am hoping that I could get some opinions on what looks the best.
After everything I am leaning towards 300cc. I am hoping this looks like the most natural and not "look at that small girl with the big boobs" look.
More updates to come!
