$3,500
So today is my three weeks post-op. I am feeling great. Minimal soreness except when I make a big movement and they bounce. I am a good size 34 B and love my new boobs. They have a great shape and have fluffed up to a good amount. I was able to buy a bra without padding today which was fun because sports bras for three weeks was horrible with outfits! :-X . Three more weeks and I will be able to wear a normal bra with underwire! :-) . I have learned to love my chest and it didn't take long as I saw the good in every decision I made to get this operation done. As I have made jokes about my chest to friends, "I am flat & happy!". Not flat at all, but I am happy to have those big balloons gone and be able to lay on my stomach and sleep....RUN for once without them bouncing hard on me. Sensation has come back...Boyfriend is ecstatic lol! I feel more petite and my friends have told me I look "sportier". Haha. Anyways, letting everyone know that I am completely satisfied and even when I see girls who just got theirs done or already have them done....I don't get jealous or mad. I am happy they are happy with their chest and hope they don't have to go through what I did! Because I am all natural and no longer have to worry about any problems with a foreign body being inside my chest. I'll post pictures in just a minute!

So today is day 4 of my post-op. I woke up today...
So today is day 4 of my post-op. I woke up today feeling a lot more optimistic about my chest and started to realize that my chest does not make who I am. Whatsoever. Of course throughout the day I have taken a peek at them but every time I look at them I am even happier than before about my decision. My physical opportunities are limitless now. I feel great about myself. On the 11th I get my stitches out which is exciting. The pain is my chest is pretty much non-existent except when I use my chest muscles in a weird position. Sometimes I have some sharp pains my scars but I know that is the healing process. Tonight is the first night I get to sleep on back completely flat without being elevated. Although I think I'm going to keep a little elevation just in case. I hope this has been helpful to you ladies! Good luck xoxo

You look great!!! I am pleased to read you are finding the positive in your decision. It is not an easy decision to make (I am still at a cross roads in mine). Sending you healing thoughts and well wishes :)

Wow. You look amazing. Glad you are healing well. I too get to sleep normally again, which is great.x

Thanks ladies :) I think we should all be happy with ourselves. I began to think the other night about why I wanted the implants so badly. Was it really for myself? Or was it to make myself feel more confident when someone looked at me. I really dont think seep inside it was for myself. I saw a movie star on the tv the other night, Kate Hudson. I looked at her chest and she has nothing at all barely! And she has enough money to change every aspect of her body but she obviously loves her body the way it was made and I think that is something we should all take into consideration. Strut your stuff with the confidence of how you are naturally and that makes you look 100x better than covering up your insecurities with fake implants. :)

My explant surgery went smooth as well! I am 3 days post op, no pain and my breasts look normal- even better than they did with implants! I am so happy and comfortable with my "new body" and look forward to a healthy life without silicone in my body!

Today is day three of my surgery. My boyfriend...
Today is day three of my surgery. My boyfriend helped me take my first shower last night & actually went okay. on day two (yesterday) my ps took off my bandages and put me into a bra that was pretty tight to bound my chest. It's pretty uncomfortable and I have to wear it for 3 weeks X-\ . Today I'm waking up much more comfortable and out of pain. I can sit down on the couch and scoot myself to the edge and get back up again without much strain. I'm taking everything day by day and not letting any negative thoughts come into my mind because I was made the way I was and I should be proud of that and not want to cover it up with implants. Because I am beautiful inside and out and so is every woman on this site. I have added an updated picture of how I look now without the implants. I'm still a little saggy on top of the nipples as it looks like they've caved in. They have taken a new shape (obviously bc of the implants). But they look a little bigger than before because they are wider from the implants. Whereas before, my boobs sat more in the front of my chest. We have to all find something positive about the choice we made, even if we don't think so right now! :)

I think your boobs look gorgeous now you've had them taken out! I hope mine look like that when I've had mine out!
August 29, 2012
You look great for just having them taken out! Give your body time to heal and the tissue time to settle, and I bet they look similar to how you looked before you even had implants put in!
August 29, 2012
They are not exactly the same and they are a little smaller..but I think with time I I will perk up a little more. That's all o really want anywaysbut if it doesn't happen then I'll be okay because I know im healthy now. :)

As the skin shrinks back they will perk up more, just give it some time, you're lucky you only had them a short time. I am glad you are feeling much better. I am having the same problem with my left implant and can't wait to get them out, although I am nervous of the outcome.
August 29, 2012
You look great! I'm serious, you look like you never had implants. They are beautiful! I truly mean that.
August 29, 2012
Thank. You so much. They're really not that big but when ivtyrn to the side the left breast looks a little different... More like a slope. So im hoping since tgey turner out half way decent, it won't take long for them to fluff up.

Did you use any creams at all to help tighten your skin? You are a lot younger than me.. but I think I hope for your results after my surgery next Thursday :)
