So, it's been two months later. I still hate my body, and my scars are more horrific then I could imagine. My skin has tightened up a little bit, but I still have a fold so anytime I try to wear a normal bra, I have to keep my cleavage covered, because it looks [RS bleep] weird. I'm going to post a picture of post surgery, please don't be mean.
I just got back from a small deployment. After being cleared to work out again, it's been nice to run again. Chest exercises are a struggle. I'm just trying to get back to where I was.
I hate my nipples. They're huge. I can't wait to find another surgeon after my next deployment so I can feel better. It's going to be a long year.

I'm so sorry, this must have been so draining. I thank you for writing all this down, it helps others to see that not everyone gets plain sailing, and I hope you can find a solution which makes you happy. Best of luck.

I'm so sorry this happened to you. You're breasts were beautiful but they will never be worth your life. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. And although us women want these procedures to make us feel beautiful. We don't NEED them to be beautiful. Prayers and best wishes

Drains removed

I got my drains removed yesterday!!! Thank god! (Thank you for not telling me how f'ing painful it was, because it was!!!!!)
My doctor is really concerned about the fold in my right breast. He got a second opinion, and they both think I will need reconstructive surgery, but it will have to wait till after deployment. Pretty crummy.

I think the dramatic changes to your body threw the hormones out of whack. I'm sure that's what is happening to you. You are in a battle for who you are in your mind. Your physique is not who you are. Focus on the changes for improved health. This is all about health, and that is the most important thing in the world. Your family loves you and you can get through this. It's a test of your will, and you can choose to be a fighter or a quitter but I know you are a fighter. You will learn something great about yourself and your family, one day at a time, getting stronger and feeling better. Let it heal and focus on a positive future for yourself. Hugs and good healing to you.

I'm sorry you've been through so much. If you decide to try another surgeon at some point, I highly recommend dr pettigrew in savannah. Good luck!

I miss these

Getit222
I woke up frustrated. I feel like I would have rather died from an infection with my implants, then have to take them out. What is wrong with me?! I miss them. How can implants have such an effect on me? My right breast is still dented. Bad. Really bad. I'm too embarrassed to post a picture of it.

Happy Easter everyone. Eat lots of candy for me, because my stomach is still acting crazy.

I am sorry that you are going through this right now. I know this is a cliche, but everything happens for a reason. I know that is hard to believe right, and you will be in my thoughts and prayers. It will get better. Try to keep your head up. You are beautiful no matter what.

How are you doing today? You have been on my mind. Hugs and happy (late) Easter.

I'm okay today. I'm not in as much pain, I cut back on the Percocet, mostly because they make me pass out instantly. Haha! I go for a follow up today, my drains are pretty annoying-I'm ready for them to be out! Mentally....I'm not sure where I'm at. I have a HUGE dent in my right boob, which is weird to me, because my left one was the infected one. Anyways, I'm hoping my doctor can explain this, because it's annoying and painful, and looks awful. I have a lot of extra skin, and my scars are very low. I'm nervous to see what he says today. I'm thinking of asking for Prozac. I'm not sure though This is all so crazy to me, because I'm normally the happiest person ever. People at work literally call me their ray of sunshine. I'm always smiling and laughing, posting insprirational quotes, giving everyone hugs...and I don't have that anymore. It feels awful, and I tried to be really positive yesterday and I did okay till I put on a normal sized shirt and not a huge one, and it just made me really sad. I don't know, hopefully I figure it out.

I don’t know if you’re still on this account, but if you are I needed to tell you this.

The support you offered me a few years ago saved my life. This was a really dark time for me and I’m so grateful I didn’t kill myself over my boobs because my life is amazing now. Thank you for supporting me and talking to me. Your help saved me.
