4 months post op - not much more to say lol

So I've been a terrible RS friend as I've been off this site for probably a month or more! Things have been busy for me - work, trips and just general life things!
Not much to report - I haven't seen changes in the look of my breasts since the last time which is a little disappointing because I had hoped that the right breast would drop and have a more natural looking slope to match the lefty. I've pretty much accepted that may never happen!

They are softer than before but not "squishy" and by no means jiggly like real boobies.

As I've gotten more and more used to them I definitely feel the boob greed more often. They just feel like a part of me and I guess I've gotten so used to seeing myself with breasts that sometimes I look down and I think well for the price I paid maybe I should have gone just a tad bigger.... But at the end of the day they are really proportionate to my body. It's really just that they disappear so easily in most of my clothes! Then I'll put on a bikini and they don't look so teeny tiny anymore lol

Sometimes I notice that the bottom half of my breasts are still numb a bit. Like definitely do not have normal sensation back in there. My nipples are sometimes numb... Sometimes super sensitive. It's weird but mostly doesn't bother me.

As for working out - anything that uses my chest muscles is soo weird. It's like this weird twitching sensation and I don't know if it's normal? Does anyone else feel that way?

All in all I am extremely happy I did this. I love how I can actually fill out clothes and for the most part I can still fit into XS / S which is the same as before - just that clothes look much different on me now!

I can also say that I definitely feel more confident in a bathing suit and naked - I really hated being flat chested! I know people will say that you should feel comfortable in your own skin blah blah blah but let's be real that isn't always the case. I always felt great in my clothes because padded bras can do wonders but its definitely easier to feel good about my body now!

2 months - time flies!

I can't believe how quickly 2 months have just FLOWN by! It's actually been nearly 10 weeks since my BA ..and...I think I REALLY REALLY REALLY LIKE my new additions! I'm still hesitant to drop the L-bomb since I'm so paranoid of complications arising! It was really nice to be on vacation and just not have to worry too much about whether my clothes hid them well enough (I haven't told my parents/family that I got a BA so when I'm with my family I have to dress pretty conservatively).
I don't have too much to update on. My rash from the bandage is gone but there are some dark marks there still - hoping they will be gone in the next couple weeks as I'm going to Vegas in October and don't want them to be so visible.

A few things I've noticed...
- my face still gets really greasy - it was not this bad pre-op. I still have lingering pimples that have yet to clear away so definitely my skin has not fared well since the operation.
- the skin between my breasts is always looking greasy/shiny from the skin stretching, also hoping this will stop soon!
- my left has dropped nicely, it's more rounded out at the bottom and the slope is more natural looking. I'm praying my right will look as nice one day! But I know that the shape of my breasts were different pre-op as well so not sure if the righty will ever look as nice.
- my scars! why can't my scars be beautiful and light like so many of the ones I've seen on here! They're not AS dark as the picture I posted a few weeks back. But they are still pretty dark, as is the skin around the scar. I've been using the kelo-cote silicone scar treatment, not really sure if it helps or not. Since the right still needs to drop and fluff around the bottom, sometimes when I stand up and look into the mirror I can see the scar :S I'm really hoping the next 2 weeks will yield some results.
- they've softened up some but are by no means squishy. I've seen some girls post videos demonstrating how soft theirs have become, not sure if mine will ever be that soft at this rate.

I had my post-op appointment with the Dr today. First time I've seen him since a few days after the surgery. He seemed pleased w/ how I've progressed so far. Basically said they will continue to drop and I can massage the righty downward if I'd like, though it's not really necessary (I'm pretty lazy so I'll probably do it like once a day a few times at most).

I'm so grateful to be able to sleep on my side/stomach (although stomach sleeping will feel weird so I'll probably stick to my side...my back will be so happy! It's been hard on my lower back!

I did forget to ask whether it's okay to get registered massage therapy and chiropractic treatments (like back adjustments). I emailed to ask but haven't heard back yet. Have any of you ladies gone to get a massage or chiropractic treatment following your BA? I think it will be weird to be on my stomach having someone put pressure on my back :S

Just trying to catch up on all the posts and updates that I've missed while I was away :) Can't wait to see how everyone is doing!

Post op weight gain and day 1 at the gym ...

I finally weighed myself at the gym (I don't own a scale...which is probably a good thing after all the post surgery bloating I'm sure I would have obsessed with my weight!) and I gained 5 lbs since the surgery. I'm definitely not bloated anymore. My implants can't possibly weigh 5 lbs... so that makes me a little sad. I'm heavier than I've ever been and not toned at all so it's not muscle weight :( :(

Embarrassing moments at the gym... squatting with 5 lb weights on the bar - struggling with my form (trying so hard not to move my arms/chest too much) and then having some guy come and correct me. Tomorrow I'm going to wear a sign that says... "Don't judge me... BA patient".

Also really unsure I'm ready for any arms or back exercises as I'm really scared to use chest muscles like, at all, in case I hurt my new additions. I think I'm just being overly cautious/paranoid!

Ladies, how have your workouts been going? What have you been working on?!
