The girls are here! - Brea, CA

3 weeks, 2 days - I haven't updated in a while. I've had computer issues and have resorted to my back up computer. So frustrating. Anyway, Thursday was my 3 weeks. I'm feeling great! Boobies are getting pretty soft, and feeling good! At my post op my PS told me I could start lower body workouts at 3 weeks, and work in upper body at 4. So I hit the gym yesterday and did my class with my trainer (a small group of us do a circuit training type class with a trainer 3 days a week). He customized a lower body workout for me so I pretty much just did legs yesterday! Boy are they feeling it today! But it felt SO good to work out again! Time to re-tone and get back in shape for my bikini!!

I'll have to take an updated photo and post it. I don't think much has really changed appearance wise, other than maybe the swelling being down. I still feel the left is a little bigger, but I'm not obsessing as much over it.

Hope all you ladies in boobie-land are doing great!!! :)

Ok I was asked how I felt in comparison to the sizers I tried on - bigger, smaller or the same. I would say I do they they appear smaller than the sizers did - probably like the girl in the office said about 10% smaller? I'm not sure how much my placement affects that - dual plane. But overall I would say I look smaller and the sizers do give a bit of a misrepresentation of size. I'm posting 2 new pics with side by side comparisons so you can see the difference. I know the tank top ones are kind of fuzzy so it's harder to tell.

Day 11 - Had another Dr appt to have stitches removed (he thought it was too soon to remove at post op last Thursday). I was a bit freaked out. Turns out there were only 2 reinforcement stitches on the top of my nipple on my right breast - the one that had the mini lift. The rest are dissovlable. I'm not gonna lie, it stung a bit as he pulled them through. But I survived. I had steri-tape surrounding my incisions on both breasts. He removed them and put on new ones. Said to leave them on. If they fall off I can buy pore-strips (I assume Transpore Medical Tape) and just use those as they are pretty much the same thing.

I asked about going in the pool, he said I'm fine to go just no doing laps or major swimming. He would prefer me to still avoid excedrin/asprin for now. I can start doing lower body exercises next week (which will be week 3), and back to full body exercise the week after. He wants to see me again at 4 weeks/30 days post-op. Told me to do massages. And that was pretty much it.

I'm posting 3 more pics today. One in the blue bikini I wore when trying on sizers so you can see how they actually look, and 2 with the white tank top over. :)
