Upper Body Workout! I'm Scared!

WORTH IT$5,500
Getting prepared for trainer and upper body workout today. Ps said ok to do with lite weight limit of 5 lbs. I haven't had a full workout since February 3 before my surgery. What I am scared of is the pain from working out. I started lower body n abs and I have been sore. Cardio too. Last week first week that I worked with trainer 3 times and cardio 2 times and was exhausted. I just need to remember to start litely. I was just getting into the shape of my life and then got surgery. I know I can do it but I hate to start from scratch. Right boobie still hives me alittle trouble. Still have a small bruise on right one but they are dropping and I am starting singular tonight. Ps recommended cuz right one is still alittle hard. Hopefully this will help otherwise I will be concerned. Massage, massage, and more. I will see what happens.

Finally Free

thequeenbeedh
Finally free from post op appointments for at least 2 months. Went to ps yesterday and said everything healing great. However, my right breast is alittle harder than left yet so he prescribed me singular and told me to massage, massage , massage. I massage quite a bit and more for the right one. I guess I will massage it more. Got ok to do a lite upper body workout with only 5 lb weights and work up to my regular workout. Thats ok because I am afraid that I won't be able to move or put my shirt on. Lol. I have been doing lower body for last two weeks and it has been so hard to get back on schedule. So sore. Summer is coming and I just ordered a cute bikini so I need to get body working hard. Getting older and it is harder to keep it off. I am so happy with results and I know that it will only get better in the coming months. On way home from ps it was so beautiful watching the hot air balloons flying over the ocean. Picture perfect. Will be doing that for my birthday in 2 months and can't wait. I will try to post some new pics. Been so busy!

Yeah! Finally shooting pain is gone

thequeenbeedh
After 1 month, the shooting pain is gone finally. Yeah ! Going back to work as a dog groomer is a challenge. Exhausted by 2 in the afternoon. Doing lifting of dogs is difficult but I have to get back to work. Kids, housework , 3 dogs , it is exhausting but getting better. Boobies are dropping and looking better. Cleavage us awesome and even bought some new bathing suits. Can't wear bandeaus , even in extra large. My boobies are squished. Took pics before my bought them and sent to husband for his input and he got totally excited. Going to have put him on a leash. Lol. I don 't get it. He is so excited everytime he sees me. He said he didn't care about size but she sure is enjoying them. Lol.

LOl I am guessing your husband will be telling you to do more shopping and send him more pictures. That's great the shooting pains have stopped and they are dropping for you ! Thanks for the update and happy healing !

Thank you. I guess I won't be able to take him shopping , he can't behave. I thought I would I would be bigger than I am but happy. Seem to b a D or DD. He put so much saline in that I thought I would be huge. I had silicone before. They are nice and I have good cleavage. I have a deep chest wall I guess. I'm so glad I told him I wanted bigger then he wanted. It took me two times to figure it out but well worth it.

Well at least your happy !!! Too bad you can't get your husband can't behave :-)

He never behaves. Going to beach tomorrow. We are expecting 80 degrees. It is so crazy. Last weekend pouring with horrible winds and now hot again. I know I complain about the weather when you are cold. That is why we pay so much to live here. It is so crazy. I grew up in a beach area all my life and everyone always have great bodies. I can't believe it took me all this time to get my boobies. I always cared about what other people thought and when I hit my 40's I didn 't care. I found out who I was and got a backbone and I am the best I have ever bend. It is funny when my husband told me the other night he finally understood why I never wanted my girls touched or looked at. Now I feel great and have the self confidence I never had. It is fabulous !

Good to hear and I am so happy for you (and your husband) ! It isn't all bad getting older I guess lol , live and learn as they say. You also know what really matters and like you said gain confidence (grow a backbone) . Hey guess what ? the high here is going to be 41* tomorrow and that's above 0*lol today it was maybe 29* guess we have had record breaking lows, like 50+ days of subzero - I think it's worth the money to go to the beach when you want. But you are born, have kids then they have kids gets harder to leave. I will be going to Cozumel in a couple weeks :-) Can't wait ! have fun at the beach !!!

Thank you. I am jealous of your vacation. I have been and you will love it. Just make sure you check your change. They always try to rip you off because you are not mexican. Lol. Hope you can stay alittle warmer.

How was the beach today ? Thanks for the tip, and it has to be warmer lol. Although it did reach 41*today and that feels pretty good around here.
March 10, 2014
Beautiful and 83 degrees. So nice n i keep forgetting its March. Time change messed me up but i needed more sleep i guess. It is so funny I live in Temecula which is wine country but I don 't drink wine. Makes me so drunk even with a half glass and I always head down south a hour to go to the beach. I guess I was born a beach baby. Glad you got alittle warmer. I know you will enjoy getting outta there and some place warm. Snorkeling is fabulous there.

I actually had never snorkeled till last year, my first time in Cozumel and loved it ! I felt way more comfortable seeing what was under the water than the unknown. So for Christmas my husband bought me my own snorkeling equipment, can't wait to try it out ! it is warmer there than Cozumel.

Never been to Hawaii myself , but it looks beautiful. Sure hope there aren't any more fires out your way. This year has just been extremes in weather from coast to coast , kinda scarey ! Good to see your getting back into your working out if that makes you happy , I know it makes a person feel better.
