24 Year Old, No Kids, Athletic, Inspira SRM 330cc - Billings, MT

I tried lifting chest 2 days ago, started off very light from what I normally do. It felt fine while doing it but holy crap the last two days have been awful. A very strange soreness compared to what I am used to. I can hardly lay on my side.

Still happy with them, although I was hoping my implants would have made my breasts closer together, but I still have a pretty large gap between them. I wound up with quite a bit of "side boob" as well, which I wasn't expecting, not really a bad thing, but something to get used to.

I finally went bra shopping, I measure at a 34D, but none of the 34D bras at Victoria's Secret fit right. I wound up trying on 32D, the band about cut my circulation off, and 34C, which was comfy, but the cups don't cover my side boob. I bought one anyways (34C) because it was comfy and made the girls look nice, but I think I am going to look at some Wacoal bras. I never realized how hard it was to find cute bras in any other brand than Victoria's Secret. Frederick's also has nice ones, but they are all push up.

I did develop some Mondor Chords last month, but they went away. They were quite umcomfortable, felt like someone was pinching the crease of my boob whenever I lifted my left arm.

My natural breasts were fairly uneven, and I noticed I am still not 100% even after implants, but I am not sure it is that noticeable? My husband says he doesn't see it, so maybe it is just me.

Getting back into the gym doing upper body is different. My implants move all around when I am using my pecs, not painful really but is funny to watch and will take some getting used to. Still working on losing some of the fat I put on while lounging around, it will take some time I imagine. Still 100% happy with the decision to get them, I got a lot of body confidence back that I was missing.

I enlisted my husband to help size me at home, I got a band measurement of 30 and a bust measurement of 38. I put that into some online calculators, which gave me insane sizes like 30G.... yeah no, definitely not. Victoria's Secret had a sizing video online, which measured the bust a different way and I wound up with 34D. That seemed right, so I bought a Champions sports bra in that size, fits like a glove!

I am having a bit of difficulty working out without incorporating my arms or chest at all. Every ab excersise I enjoy involves the arms/chest somehow so that is proving to be a bit difficult. Flexing chest muscles with implants under them feels sort of funny at the moment, not painful, just like my muscle is trying to contract but can't fully. I like to do roman chair/hanging leg raises, but when I purch my arms up I feel my chest muscles contract and start freaking out. Getting back into the groove with the gym is proving to be the most difficult part in this journey, I suppose it will just take time.
