Hi RS!

It's the night before my surgery and I'm so excited but a little bit nervous! I just found this site a few days ago after google searches in moments of panic and I'm so grateful!

I've wanted this since my teens. Now seemed like a better time than any - I'm completely settled, decided I don't want kids in the next few years, career on track, spare savings I can't use on travelling because I max out my leave for travelling...

I'm quite petite at 5'1 and my weight fluctuates between 99-110 depending on my workouts. I pole dance which has definitely contributed to this decision as my shoulders are just that little bit broader and my chest is just that little bit smaller, but also, bigger haha! And well, aesthetics!

I'm currently an A/B and I'm looking forward to being a full C/small D. My PS calculated my conservative tissue limit to be 275cc/295cc which should bring me to around that size post op (fingers crossed!) and keeping in mind, it may feel a tiny bit smaller than the sizer once in, submuscular.

Wish me luck!!!!!

Day 1 after surgery!

Made it!!

I wasn't as nervous as I thought I should be which sort of made me worry I was going to have a breakdown last minute (me being crazy). All was fine!

I did walk into the theatre and there were lots of people in the room around the bed.. that was shaped like a crucifix.

While the anaesthetist was putting the cannula in my left arm some guy came in asking if they could take the other arm board but my PS started screaming "absolutely not! Who are these people." Then I started feeling dizzy and asked everyone to sing don't worry baby by the beach boys to me. No one replied. Or I fell asleep.

I woke up really really out of it. I felt a bit nauseas eve y time I had to move around but it subsided when I sat. Everyone else in that room seemed to be able to walk around fine but I was so floppy...

I'm avoiding Endone and that floppy feeling (and a slight hallucinogenic effect it gives me). I feel I tire easily and my chest is tight and with that feeling of pressure. I feel very restricted in movements.

So my chest doesn't seem as big as I imagined or as big as the sizers. Which is fine. Because I wasn't planning on more than Cs - I felt I got boob greed before the op! And wanted to go with D's but that wouldn't be realistic for my lifestyle! Also, I feel they are sitting quite high right now so I just have to be patient like everyone else, let them settle and drop and fluff so everyone can motorboat me.

Day 4

I went back to work yesterday. I'm a design manager at a photography studio so i just retouched photos the last two days. I'm completely off Endone and just taking 2 panadols every 6 hours and have 1 day of antibiotics left. Panadol still makes me feel drunk.

The discomfort changes location day to day - I don't feel a thing sitting up any more but find under and my rib area, particularly the right, the most irritating...

One of the girls had the procedure done a few years ago in brazil- she said they don't move for 15 days and that my boobs will settle wonky because im up and about so i should let everyone carry my bag and open doors for me. I blew my work birthday cake out today and wished for even boobs because i was so paranoid.

Sleeping on my back has been such a struggle! Who does that voluntarily??
