What an awesome job! You'd never know you'd had it done, they look perfect on your frame and no way fake. I think they'd be a lot of people's wish pics!

Went to the gym for the first time since surgery! I've been doing walks around the neighborhood but really missed my usual workouts...now that it's been 2 weeks since surgery I got clearance to go back. Did a more mild version of my normal cardio and a bunch of leg weights. No upper body, that won't be for a few more weeks. I've also started daily massages...it actually feels really good, can't wait to see the results in a few weeks!

So I had my first post-op appointment yesterday...

So I had my first post-op appointment yesterday and it went perfectly! Dr. says that everything looks good!! It was the first time I had taken off the surgical bra and it felt great...not to mention I finally got to look at the new me! I have to say, I was VERY pleased. Dr. Pousti and I never really talked about a size before surgery (ie B cup, C cup, 300 cc vs 400cc). He is both an artist and a excellent surgeon and from his past work, I knew that he would give me what I wanted which was the most natural look possible, proportionate to my size. And while the girls are still swollen and riding high, I think he did exactly that. So to sum it up, couldn't be happier with the results so far!

At my post-op appt, I got the okay to shower and was told to hold off on massages until I see him again next week. I've also started wearing another bra ( Warner's brand, bought at Kohls) half the time which is nice because it's not as tight as the compression bra. The shower after the post-op appt was heaven, the warm water really relaxes all those muscles! I haven't really had any pain recently, just chest tightness/pressure. I'm slowly gaining more range of motion with my arms and have graduated from wearing only button down shirts (yay!). I LOVE the way I look in all my clothes now!

Thank you!! I know! Isn't that bra the best!? I'm actually feeling really good, I've been able to try on a bunch of my clothes, shower, really move about like normal. I get a little achy here and there but nothing a little motrin can't help :)

I want to thank you for your great review. I read it all the time before my surgery and it helped me prepare a lot. Thank you for taking the time to share your experience and advice!!

Awww, thank you so much! It truly makes me happy to help others :-) It helps to have an idea of what to expect after surgery and to know that other people are experiencing the same emotions, thoughts, feelings, etc.
