My life has taken alot of unexpected changes over the last couple of years. My husband passed away just over a year ago. It was a tough time but I am finding my way back to being myself. After losing my weight of nearly 45 lbs and gaining back my self-confidence, it's time to start loving my body again. I am beginning to like how I look in my clothes but being naked has been really depressing. I'm sick of my boobs pointing toward the ground. I should say that I'm about 160 lbs at 5'7" with 38C. I am having a breast lift with augmentation 375cc silicone implants under the muscle on March 22. I'm not crazy about this little belly that I just can't seem to get rid of and if it still bothers me by next fall I will have Vaserlipo. I've already talked to my PS and she assured me that the lipo would help out since I don't really have alot of extra skin hanging - but it still bothers me. But right now I am only taking 2 wks pto and want to be as healed as possible when I go back to work. I am looking forward to getting this done and just being happy to have pretty boobs again that point forward.

I'm so sorry to hear that your husband passed away last year. I am glad that you're taking care of yourself though! How did you lose the 45 pounds?

Sorry for the delay of my reply Angiemcc. I lost the weight by walking, cutting back on portions and as I lost the weight it was easier to be motivated to be more careful with my food choices. I still have a way to go til I am back in my goal size; but I've come a long way already. I can't wait to have this surgery and feel better when I look in the mirror.

Awww you have had a tough time haven't you? Goodness this will lift your spirits and your boobs!! I would say you will be good to go after two weeks as long as you aren't doing alot of lifting or stretching up type work. I am thrilled that you only have until March 22nd too! Yayyy it's going to go fast and you'll be very happy you did something nice for yourself :)

Thanks for the kind words of encouragement and sharing your great outcome. Your pictures are really encouraging; your scars have faded so well. Did you use anything on them (can't remember because I've been reading so many reviews). Only a couple more days to go - eeeek!

Ok just 3 weeks to go and I am getting nervous. I work at the hospital as an Xray tech. I was working in the OR tonight and even though I never get freaked out by anything, tonight I was watching while the skin was being stitched and thought about how it will be me on the table in just a few weeks. I'm not having surgery at the hospital I work at but just getting a little overwhelmed. I actually got a little lightheaded at the thought. I know that all of us have the same nerves, I just wanted to voice this to get it out. I'm sure it will be fine.

Surgery is just 2 weeks from today and I'm glad I am only doing just the BL & BA this time around. I will be doing lipo (tummy, thighs) in the fall & hopefully will have toned up a bit more before then. I have read so many other stories on here - I'm excited and nervous but am looking forward to having boobs that just aren't so sad looking. But at least I got my pics posted.
