Going to Rack City! - White Plains, NY

Safe to say I'm completely healed! The entire process was a piece of cake. Just wanted to throw this out there, and this is something extremely common: I wish I went bigger!!! Seriously. I am happy with my boobs and their size, but trust me when I say (1) They shrink and (2) If you think a size is big, it's really not. My 375cc's were at the size I wanted them to be right when I got out of surgery, aka they were very swollen. I'm in a D cup now but, like I've read from a ton of other reviews, they really don't seem big at all! Boob greed is 110% real! It's like I've created a monster, LOL-- in the sense that I'll probably end up getting them redone before the "Ten Year Mark" to somewhere around a 500cc. I'm a vain person, big girly girl, really into beauty/fashion so I've always been like this and plastic surgery was definitely an inevitable part of my life. BUT all that aside I do highly recommend this surgeon and facility. For anyone who is considering breast implants, it is absolutely worth it. I look at pictures of myself pre-op and am so, so happy I went through with this, especially since a lot of people were telling me otherwise. As I've said before, you are the sole individual who knows yourself better than anyone else. Trust your gut. You only get one life and no one is more deserving than anyone else, of anything! I am always here and more than happy to answer any questions (doesn't even have to be about implants)! :)

So I'm now pretty much 6 weeks post-op and healed! I've been back at the gym, lifting/running, sleeping on my stomach and all normal activity. I am a little bummed though because my boobs definitely shrunk as the swelling went down! I'm a D but they really don't even seem that big! Maybe I'm just greedy but now I know why EVERYONE says go as big as you can! They were also naturally spaced (as opposed to "kissing") so of course the implants just made them bigger and they space looks more prominent which bugs me, but I had asked my surgeon about this and he had said he can't reconstruct my chest and that everyone's chest is built differently. The only way to make them closer together would be to get bigger implants. Sooo maybe in a few years I'll go up to a 450cc but I did just have these done so I need to slow down, LOL. Otherwise I LOVE my boobs and think this was the best decision ever. The entire process was SO easy and the worst part was waiting to get back to the gym. Now that they're smaller I can definitely feel the saline and like everyone says they do feel like water balloons. I had a decent amount of breast tissue before this so they're still soft and I have no rippling whatsoever. Glad I went with the saline because the silicone really skeeved me out. Will post pictures soon!

So I'll be 2 weeks post op tomorrow! All is well on the boob front :) I'm no longer wearing the ugly surgical bra and the girls are definitely feeling much softer! I'm noticing my right one looks a tiny bit higher than my left and I'm not sure if it still needs to drop more or if it's because they're 2 different sizes which they were to begin with. I got measured at VS and was told I'm a 34D :) so stopped in to TJ Maxx to pick up some new bras because I couldn't wait any longer! Stupid me didn't try them on in the store and I'm seeing they're too small which means I'll need a DD in the brand I got, yikes!! The sports bras I got in a medium were perfect though. Ladies, if you're in the market for new bras I highly recommend eBay! I draw the line at wearing used bras but there are a ton of brand new Victoria's Secret bras and other brands that have never been worn and are almost always 50-75% off the prices you'll find in the store! I actually just saw a lot of 4 brand new really cute lace and rhinestone Bombshell bras in my size go for $60 when the asking price was $170! (SO mad I missed this)! So needless to say I have been scouring eBay for hours on end for bras all the time. My big debut with the girls was this past weekend and everyyyyone wanted to see and poke them! LOL I guess I would have too had I known anyone near me who had them. Everyone was fascinated and asked me a billion questions. I'm sure some people would be uncomfortable with this but I'm pretty open so much of the night was spent discussing boobs! I have another post-op appointment next Friday and also back to the gym for real next Thursday yayyy! I think I'm actually smaller than before my surgery because like I said I'm being really careful about what I eat now that I can't work out as much so I think I'm going to eat the same way when I start back up next week. The girls are a lot more comfortable too and I'm finding it easier to sleep on my side as well as walk around and not notice them. On a different note (and I'm not sure if this is the best place to ask) does anyone have permanent hair extensions? (vs. clip ins). I've been using clip ins for years and have very fine, thin hair and I've heard horror stories of the permanent extensions ripping hair out. I'd like to be able to have long hair 24/7 though so any insight would be awesome!
