Five Weeks Post OP - New Pics (TT w/MR, BL/BA) - Battle Creek, MI
I had my first experience with plastic surgery...
I had my first experience with plastic surgery when I was 23. I had already had one child and I had the biggest breasts. I hated them. I couldn't wear shirts, they were in the way, my back hurt...you know the spiel. I had a reduction. I was thrilled to have smaller breasts, but not so thrilled with the scarring. The surgeon that performed the reduction tried a procedure he hadn't done before (I was not aware he was going to try it) and he did not change my areola size nor do anything about the side fat (ya'll know what I'm talking about there!)
So while I have been happy to have smaller breasts, I wanted to fix them eventually.
I went through a divorce, remarriage and two more children. I gained a lot of weight. I recently decided enough was enough, I hated how big I had gotten and in April, decided to kick ass and lose the weight for good.
I decided that when I hit a certain weight, I would look into a tummy tuck (since three kids and a large weight loss didn't do me any favors) and a breast lift/revision and implant.
I found a doctor I really liked, and made the decision (yesterday!) to take the plunge! I am now nervous. I am not nervous about the surgery - surgery doesn't scare me. I think it's because I am doing something major for myself Kinda feel a little guilty.
Anyway, I am glad I found this site and look forward to all the stories, tips, tricks, and friends! :)
Been googling arnica Montana....I am still a bit...
I am getting excited for my pre-op appt! Next week! Woohoo!
I know i need to add my before pics. I'll try and work on that.
I'm working hard to get as much weight off as possible before surgery too. I'm close to goal, but i want to be as close as possible.
Oh, and yeah...i was window shopping online for bathing suits last night. Omg I'm so excited...this will be the first two piece I've worn since i was 19 (i will be 36 in a few weeks!)
