It's been 2 months... I feel great. Thanks to all of you wonderful ladies that helped me through this journey. I've learned a valuable lesson and I truly see life differently. I was too apprehensive about my looks and what others would say about me. I now realize that what matters the most is my health... And I am definitely healthy now.
May God bless all of you and I hope you can get something good out of my experience. Thank you!

Beba, it is so good to hear you are feeling great. I think most of us are overly critical of our looks and it is very hard to get into any other frame of mind. I'm glad you've accepted your body for the beautiful creation God made and that your health is improved! Blessings to you for continued healing in mind, body, and spirit! (((hugs)))
Wow you sound so positive and in a really good place. A few weeks ago us girlies were worried about you and the posts you put--now look at you!!! See---- time is a good healer. So pleased for you and that now your experience is a positive one. I still have a shock from time to time about my now non existant breasts! BUT i dont have wobbles i just get the push up padded bras out and get on with it--and i hold my head up high and feel great that i have those silicones out of my body!!!!! [RS bleep]
Im so happy you have accepted your beautiful self x It was a huge decision to make well done x

If I could turn back time, I would have waited a little longer or requested new implants (smaller ones). Girls, please make sure you mentally prepared for it before you even decide to book your procedure. This is not easy!

It's been 10 days... I still feel disappointed but a little more healthier. I do not like my appearance and I live worried about "caved nipples". Don't know if I would get them but I am sick worried about that. I feel unattractive and depressed.
If you are considering explantation, PLEASE make sure you understand the consequences and trade offs. This is not easy nor it's fun, especially when you don't have high self esteem (like me). It is not reversible unless you have the $$ to pay for a lift or for a new set of implants.
Do yourself a favor and do research... Read our stories as they not always end up happy. I wish I had a vision of what I am living today and I can assure you that I would have waited or requested smaller implants. My breast looks terrible and I can't stand looking at my naked body anymore. PLEASE take your time and think it through.
Good luck to all and good night!
Why get a smaller size? Issues can still happen with a smaller size. You will bounce back. The body does amazing things.
I know it's hard. Take vitamins. I covered nine up and didn't look at them for like 2-3 weeks. They say it takes 6 months to get back to normal. It's like delivering a baby. You delivered 2! Please don't feel bad.
I hope so verdeluz. Thank you :-)
Are you taking vitamin e? What about flax seed?
Hey beba :-) I think your out of the woods on the caved nipples. I believe if you were going to have them you already would. Hope you begin to feel better , I hate that you are sad
Hi Jessica! I feel better today. I guess I keep having my ups and downs here and then. How are you doing? Xoxoxo
Beba, you'll get through this! I'm sure you don't look as bad as you think you do. You're still in the early days and you only had the implants for 4 years. When I went to a consult, the Dr. told me not to look at my breasts for 6 weeks after! I am terrified! But I think once things settle down and you get used to your new shape, I am sure you will be okay with it. Obviously, not all of us will be pleased with our results, but hopefully we will accept them in time. Maybe if you are ready to put pics up, you will see the feedback and feel better about it all. You can always put smaller implants back in if you wish. I don't think you have burned any bridges. But, there will always be another surgery around the corner if you do so...
Hi nervousgirlie, you are right. Thanks for your kind words. How are you doing?
I am very worried, kind of depressed about the whole situation. Angry for getting the implants to begin with, and for waiting so long to get them out. I know you hate the way you look now, but I would trade anything for your flat wrinkly boobies as I am sure I will look like something out of National Geographic!
im so sorry your so sad. It took me weeks of crying before i stopped. I am one of those girls with caved nipples :/ Im stronger now :) and feel much better about myself and you will to. Give yourself some time you will see quite a bit of change in the next 6 weeks. I had a gal on here (i think it was verdeluz34 :) ) tell me about a song called "Stronger" by Mandisa It is AMAZING!! i played it in my truck everyday on my way to work. we are strong women :) what ever decision you decide,either to re implant or not you will get through this :) and the women on here are always eager to help :)
Thank you Elle. I just want time to go by fast so I can get over this stage of acceptance and recovery. I've cried everyday and I just want to be me again. I will look up your song. I bet its beautiful! Good nite :-)
Thank you ladies for all the support and kind words. I wish all of you good luck and I hope you get back to health soon. I also hope that all of you get wonderful results and feel happy with the outcome of your surgery.
:-)
Hi Beba--just a quick message as only thinking of you the other day--how you doing? you feeling more positive? I still have issues, my recovery is going to be a long one but hey ho---- i´m a survivor. Gutted about my nipples but hopefully they might get better with time [RS bleep] take care x
Hi Reed!
Thank you for your message. Yes, I am doing so much better now. I think the combination of medication, stress, and insecurities was making me see this worst than what it is. My breast are recovering really fast. I haven't gained any volume but they've firmed up fast. I have a couple of "normal" bras that are 34 b, and I am very thankful for that.
Pain is almost non existent unless I try to lift heavy things. This usually goes away with Tylenol (thank goodness!). My boyfriend says that I look really good and like a normal person. I personally like not feeling heavy and of course been able to sleep without having hard balls controlling my positioning in bed.
You are such a beautiful person, always writing kind messages and looking a things so positively. Please stay strong and let's give this process some time. I think we will all find our happiness along the way and our bodies will reward us for our decision of getting back to health. The biggest blessings we have right now is that we learned from our mistakes, moved on and decided to do the right thing. Now we are on the right track... There is no need to look back.
I truly hope and pray that you stay strong and feel better each day. Chin up.... Face forward.... Big smile. :) have a blessed evening! [RS bleep]
Hi Beba--great to hear you have moved on--you were so negative to begin with and you sound so much more positive and- lucky you! having a B cup bra--i am lucky to fill an A cup!!! Yes i will stay strong but i am so sure i will need a scar revision so this sorry mess is not over yet!! we wait and see. So pleased you are on the RIGHT road for recovery now and you have a supportive boyfriend. All the best to you --thanks for your lovely reply [RS bleep] sending hugs to you x
