6 days post op- feeling WONDERFUL
WORTH IT
Almost a full week since my procedure and I have to say I am 10000% pleased.
The first few days were rough. Much harder than I expected! Once day 4 passed I felt almost back to normal, day 5 was when I started getting full range of motion in my arms pain free, and here we are at day 6 and I feel almost 100%.
This morning I woke up and went to the gym (!) SIX DAYS POST OP. I stayed away from the weights but I walked slowly on the treadmill for an hour and kept my heart rate around 115 or less. It was so good for my mental health and it made me feel like my normal self. Usually I do grueling sprints, power lifting, and 8-10 mile runs, but the doc said I could walk only, so walking is what I'll do. Just being able to be in the gym at my usual 5am time felt so so good.
I was having pain in my left chest until yesterday, but now I don't have any pain at all.
The size I'm very happy with. I ended up with 300cc moderate plus. I started at a 34A cup (I'd have been a double A without my big pec muscles lol) and yesterday I bought bralettes from VS in a 34C and 32D. The 32D fits beautifully. Could I have gone bigger? Sure. Am I happy with the size I chose? Definitely. They fit my frame beautifully and look natural. I absolutely love them

I'm so glad you are doing well! I saw Dr. T as well and thought he was wonderful. I am hesitating doing it at all and spoke to him about not going under the muscle as I too work out a lot and love to lift. Did you get submuscular implants?

Hello, I am scheduled for a consultation with the same surgeon. How are you doing now that you are more than a few months out? I have a similar body type, am a mother, and am very physically active. How hair been getting back to your regular fitness routine? I have to do push-ups for my job. How have push-ups felt since your BA?

Hi! My results are great! I'm about 3.5 months out. I work out 5-6x/week, lots of running and weights. However, I do not do push-ups and chest exercises. I did try out a push-up to see how it felt and it was definitely odd. I even find lat pull downs awkward. I never did chest exercises before, only back and shoulders. I have been doing lots of very heavy lower body workouts and that has been completely unaffected.

Thanks for your reply! I am scheduled with him for 4/28! I'm very nervous, but I'm always this way with big/expensive decisions. Could you post a updated photo of how you are doing? Your lifestyle seems so similar to mine.

Yes, can you post an update with photos and how you are feeling about going with 300 moderate, rather than 345 full profile. I am looking at 335, 345 and 365 full profile.

I had a wonderful experience with Dr Tattelbaum. I received a breast augmentation on 11/11 and it exceeded my expectations. This is a skilled doctor who met with me twice before the surgery to go over sizing, and spent a good deal of time explaining the pros and cons of each. He also gave me his professional opinion in regards to size, which I truly appreciated as I felt somewhat overwhelmed by the choices. I ended up going with his recommendation- and I am thrilled! To say that I'm exceptionally pleased with my results is an understatement, as is my husband, and I would absolutely recommend this doctor to family and friends. Pictures, sizes, and more details are available on my profile.
So happy for you!
