I prepped for about 9 months for this surgery. Weight has always been a challenge for me and frankly, at age 44 I wasn't sure I would really ever get a grip on it. Last summer, I started working with a personal trainer 2 30-min sessions a week which got me on track to work out myself another 3 days a week. I toned my body up quite a bit and then started weight watchers online after 5 months of working out. I basically went from 245lb to 220lbs - some fat loss and some muscle gain. Boobs never changed throughout. After surgery, I weighed 210 -- about 5 lbs of tissue and no appetite got me there. Now I'm nearly 2 months post-surgery and back working out. I guess the upshot: a BR has helped me see I CAN have a body i feel proud of -- the boobs hid any good physical asset i had no matter what the weight was.... I'm really glad i did it after having had a foundation of toning and a little weight loss. I am really glad I didn't say to myself once again "I'll get a BR when I lose the weight."
