WORTH IT
Nothing really new to report! Just ecstatic that I am able to wear a strapless swim top!! Who would have ever thought that would be a possibility for me?!? Never!! But this is so cool being able too!! Also I have been able to wear some cute summer dresses with no bra!! NO BRA!!! It's awesome to have that option now!!
I posted some recent pics!
Hope all of you are doing well!!!

Nice to see you! So glad your doing so well. I'm doing good but still a little sore and still have a hard area under right nipple and above it so hoping that goes away by itself. I'm at 4 months now. You look so fantastic!! We did it!!! Yay summer without big bras and big clothes !

Thanks for sharing your journey through this very personal experience. The results are perfect and exactly what I'm looking for. I was scheduled to have a BR in January 2005 but was diagnosed with MS in December 2004. Since I was going through so many "picks and probes", I decided to not go through with it. Now, 10 years later and 50 pounds lighter, I am seriously considering pursuing a BR again. I wear a DD cup but should probably be wearing at least DDD. I just can't stand the back and shoulder pain anymore. Your posts were so helpful but you didn't mention if your MS interferred with this procedure. Did the trauma of surgery to your body cause any type of exacerbation. .. Thanks again for sharing your story-

I can't believe its been 4 and a 1/2 months since my BR! It has flown by!! I have been so happy with my results and feel that they are even still changing! I can't tolerate the silicone pads so I have been just using bio oil on my scars and have noticed very little changing in regards to the redness of them, but I know that will get better with more time! It is so nice now that it is getting warm out to be about to wear a strapless suit with confidence!! OMG I still can't believe I can do that! And its nice not feeling like I have to try to hide all the time behind my clothes; I just have so much confidence now and I never knew that would feel so good! That in itself made the BR worth it!
I have a friend at work that is getting her BR in less than a month and I am so happy for her! She is getting nervous and it is so nice being able to talk to her about how I had all those same feelings, I remember them like it was yesterday! I was a worried wreck; there were so many moments where I thought I was going to chicken out! SO glad I didn't thought! I finally feel like I am enjoying life!!!
I added some new photos to show the progress!!
Hope all are doing well!!

You look fab! Isn't it great to have the freedom of small [RS bleep]? I am so happy I had the reduction myself. I haven't been out running yet, but when the snow disappears I'll give it a go :)
