Quick update….

I had my breast surgery on 4/22. Turned out with the 20 pounds I just lost… I did lose quite a bit in the boobs. We decided to opt out of the procedure without the vertical scar and do a traditional reduction/lift. Most of the reduction was the 'side boobs" which had to be completely cut out and removed.. Lipo was not an option as it is for most people. My "excess" baggage was extreme. In addition… he removed some tissue from my larger breast to balance out the size and of course, the lift… is just AMAZING! I have had no pain with this procedure. Just basic soreness but mostly on the sides. I've been VERY tired and lazy…or at least it feels more noticeable to me this time around compared to my tummy tuck. My boobs are great… I'm healing… I'm lacking energy but otherwise way ahead of where I should be according to the doc. Energy level is expected to be low for another week. My range of motion is great, no problem showering/shampooing, driving and light housework. I came home on surgery day with NO drains. I stayed at the hospital for 8 hours after surgery, at which point, the output was so low, the doc removed them (yay) Feeling fantastic overall… Just really really lacking energy! LOVING my new boobs!!

I feel fantastic. My belly is still kind of numb around the bellybutton and below. I still have monster crotch, though I guess it's fair to say It's gone down SOME! Working out at about 60% of what I was doing before my tummy tuck…. Doing OK with it though. I've lost weight, total of 18 pounds but I had gained 5 over the holidays so really 13 pounds since after sugary. Thrilled with where I'm at. I've scheduled my breast reduction/lift for April 22 and it's coming FAST. Doc intends to do one without a vertical scar. Can't wait to be done! :)

He's a genius! I couldn't have chosen a better doc! I was comfortable with him immediately. He smiles a lot which is always helpful. He told me what I could expect and also what he would expect of me in terms of being prepared for surgery. (Quit smoking for at least 8 weeks before surgery or it's not going to happen) He checked in with me a couple of weeks preOp, as he said he would, to make sure I was still not smoking.. He was not going to bend in any way, which I thought was just awesome!!! He also called me while I was at home recovering, to see how I was doing. He's five stars all the way!!!
