Yay! Congrats on your anniversary! Hope you both had a wonderful blessed one and that you have many more! :) my husnband and I have been togeather since I was 15 and he was 19. We moved in togeather when I turned 19 and has our son when I was 20 then married when I was 21 and we had our daughter when I was 23. Glad you enjoyed your single life an being a single mother I see (my sis) is the hardest job! Cuddos to you! Glad you concourd bulimia! Yay! Awesome!! You have come LONG way! God is good ALL the time! I in the othe hand was the opposite. I was 278 lbs at my biggest and after the birth of my daughter and not being able to get to both my children during an emergency situation fast enough. And trying many diets and pills along with programs has success on some and then had some weight gain. I decided to look into gastric bypass. I didn't have health issues per my health ins, but I fought a good fight and got approved in 05. I know weigh 127 and people call me petite ! :D That's still hard for me to swallow or believe, it feels great but its hard to see myself that way. It's a mental thing that I'm sure you understand since your bulimia once upon a time. Same mental disorder but different... Im 5'4 and was still am but not as much, having vitamin deficiency due to bypass. Will always be on vitamins. But I'm healthy and feel good as long as I take all of them. I will for myself and family. Haven't worked out in about a year due to knee injury from teaching a cardio class at curves. Needless to say due to the weight loss I do have loose skin that kaiser says is "cosmetic" they did however do a panis removl not tummy tuck but pretty decent job for an HMO. My girls where not that big to begin with and thats why that was not covered. I'm sure if I fight for certain things that affect my self asteem and so in my HMO has to cover. It would be considerd medically necessary. I just don't have the time. As soon as I feel better from this car accident (cant wait) I will strat back on kick boxing or tei bo. I have a few gyms near by and all the DVDs. What area do you live in?

I was really saggy too and thought I was a C but from what my PS said I was not :/ lol said that if they did a lift alone I would be flat chested. I could not have that. So after all the measurements and several consults my ps and I decide that 550 would be good for me. They are not as big as they sound. Lol. They did look huge at first but now they are good. In a VS wireless bra I'm a 34 to 36 D in a wire bra I'm a DD. The wire makes all the difference. I didn't want to have surgey and regret not going bigger. Everyone I had spoken to said they either they had regrets not going bigger,would go in for 2nd bigger implant or had boob envy. I didn't want to be in any of those categories and asked a few surgeons what would be good for my body short and long term. My sister however wanted me to go 600 and my PS would not have that! Lol so glad I was adviced otherwise. I will have my hubby take a recent picture and I will post it. I'm still a little swollen on the left from the accident. I will be having an MRI soon to be on the safe side. Even if I have to pay out of pocket. I rather be safe than sorry. Didn't bother asking If you have children and
Your age ? I'm 37 and have a 15 yr boy and 12 girl. My husband is a wonderful man who knew I've wanted to do my breast for about 5 years now. After much research and thought he said just do it! He's on awesome man! Can't wait Dow him to enjoy them to the fullest! ;)

When was your surgery again? Mine was May 29 and I has 550 cc's under muscle silicone. Was an 34 A to big B my ps said. Now I measure at 36 DD. don't know if that is correct.

Thanks! You too! My friends love mine, I feel the pain so Im not where I want to be yet. I totally agree with the working out. Cant wait to start back on tei bo! Super fun and kicks your butt

Sorry I took so long to reply to your comment. Both my kids started school and things have been crazy around here. Not to mention, I thought I was out of the clear from the car accident and my left breast settling, but it seems that the more I use the muscle / left arm … The breast starts to move in the pocket again and the pain continues. I saw my P.S on 8-5 and I was told to wait for swelling to go down that there is no rupture. Once the swelling went down, the movement should stop. I had no bruising on the outside but the pain was instant. My next appointment with my PS was not until Sept 17 but I called and told them that the implant only stopped moving for a few days and then started again. The pain has not stopped completely. It comes and goes. I’m assuming this is normal since its pain from BA and Lift and pain from car accident. Pain over pain … The accident happened at about 9 weeks post-op. I have to wear 2 tight sport bras then tie them with a hair band in the middle for extra support from moving around in the pocket (saw this online). It’s either that or the band we are given to help drop our breast. If I wear band I wear it over the left (since very slightly higher & under the right) I feel like my left arm/muscle is useless and I can’t bend down as this aggravates the left breast movement! I am so frustrated! If I do nothing as If I just had surgery then everything is Ok, the only thing I can think happened is that the pocket that was already formed around my breast must have ripped /broken during the accident. And now I probably have to start all over again. I guess I will find out (I HOPE!) On Monday 8-27 when I see my PS. I Haven’t read anyone else have a similar problem as I do ,which concerns me since I don’t know what to ask or do. My left breast even looks wider if I don’t have it all wrapped up as I described above. I can’t go out the way I have to have them since its so uncomfortable and I’m beginning to have feelings of regret and depression.
Thanks for your well wishes for us, we are also glad. And yes they could've been so much worse. Make sure to do as your ps tells you as far as massages and whatnot. I actually did some techniques I looked up and combined them, saw a huge difference in a matter of days! I'm not an expert, but the shape was oval/boxy and I was coming up on 6 weeks so getting close to the time frame where they say you won’t change much... I decided to try different/ aggressive technics! So GLAD I did! At 5 days , I was already happy. When I went back to my P.S she was happy also. When I told her what I was doing she was surprised and actually impressed. I do all this all day when every single time I possibly can when I'm home and even when I go somewhere! I carry my breast band and use it whenever possible as well! lol When I can hide it of course. All this was prior to the car accident. Now I massage only the right (to keep soft) as it has already settled and gently massage the left as I feel the pocket has to form again but I don’t want a CC to form. Other than the movement, pain and that you can see the swelling when I have not had my boobs trapped and strapped down (left one looks much wider if I don’t)I would be happy with the results.
How has everything with you been? Are you feeling, looking better? Is your girl still looking angry? ;)
Hope things have settled a little more for you!
