Ok sorry it's been so long, life gets, well, as life is-busy ;)
Plus I needed to stop making this TT and boob thing my main focus.

I finally got in to see the surgeon, five months after he told me he wanted to see me in a month.
Couldn't get passed the secretary, no matter that He wanted to see me she refused to schedule. Said something had happened and he couldn't see patients in his office until June. (this was in March!)
Someone is lying to me, not sure which.
At any rate a couple of months ago I noticed my right breast was now lifting and looked different than my newly fixed left one.
Yup, scar tissue and capsular contraction happening there.
I saw him on Mon the 16th and he booked me in to be fixed up under a local anesthetic only on this Thurs the 19th.
Um.
About that.
It's quick-20-30 minutes, but the freezing needles aren't fun, and you find out rather quickly whether or not they're working.
One thing about me, he never has to Guess if something is hurting.....
O_o

At any rate, I haven't had much opportunity to rest since having it done and I'm back at work tomorrow. As I said, life is busy! If there were Any possibility of a day off, believe me I'd jump at it.
I'm not to wear a bra for a couple or few weeks, only a Tank with a shelf bra. Good thing my work shirt is loose and baggy!!
The idea is he split the scar tissue, so the implant can drop down again. If I wear a bra, it'll push the breast up and leave room for the scar tissue to reconnect. He also jammed his fingers in there and cleaned off the implant...ick and ow.
All done now, and I'll thank the universe to leave well enough alone, lol.

As for the TT, somewhere along the lines I've gained five pounds and can't seem to drop it.
Partly muscle, as downhill mountain biking has been going on since the end of ski season and I started running again. (though now nothing with impact for three weeks :p )
And I guess the skin from the TT does relax quite a bit, and I guess I am 42, so can't expect to be as taught as I was the first few months....
However. Overall the effects are quite pleasing, I actually look good in a dress now, no lumpy pouch in front anymore!
For that alone, I remain grateful!!
I started dating my ex boyfriend again a few months ago, we were together before my surgeries. Though he says I was beautiful before, and I think he could care less about the TT, he does enjoy the breasts ;))
He's said I didn't need it, but he's quite happy with the results...
And, that is my life in a nutshell...
Now, I hear my 3 1/2 year old Goddaughter moving around upstairs, which means nap time is Over, lol!
Best hit the showers and go get the promised post nap ice cream cone...(yeah, that five pounds certainly is Not all muscle, lol. Gotta live, too, ladies!)
Hope all are well, I'll try and get by to see updates from everyone in the next little bit...
xoxo

Hello Snowfly, so good to hear from you, I've been staying in touch with Zenbodygodess and logging in mainly to keep cheering her over the finish line, which she has finally done, I'm so happy for her. You sound just like your usual cruisy, take things in your stride, self. Sorry to hear about the second capsular contraction, sounds like a migraine in your boob getting it squeezed! I don't know much about it at all. I wonder what causes it? Did you find that nothing fits anymore? All my pants and jeans were falling off and I had to use belts or throw them out all together! I totally agree about the weight, I'm so happy to be in a new phase of my life where I'm not obsessing about this big ugly deformity, I'm not going to spoil it stressing over some softs bits here and there. xx

Wonderful update! Life as it eases into normalcy. Good to read and hear. Makes me feel like things are normal for me too. Reality DOES eventually creep in and provide perspective. For me, it feels good. Learning to leave and improve in my "new body". Still working on improvements...mostly health ones. A few little tweaks plastic surgery-wise in November, then I, done. Will settle in and adjust to the new me, and continue to institute my new lifestyle. ALL good! Take care. Thanks so much for the update, HUGS :-DSuzy

Yes, my belly is doing well!
I still have that mysterious lump that enlarges when I get some swelling.
Which is no longer happening Every day :)
I will check with him again as soon as I can get in to see him- no easy task when his secretary doesn't return messages and I forget to call back until After business hours.
Ugh.
Brainless, some days, I am.
Anyhoo, the belly is looking fab, has relaxed a little more than I would have liked but as I need to remind myself- I am no longer able to rest a cup of tea on it, so...
Take care everyone, I miss you ladies and wish you all the best!

Why, downhill mountain biking (yessss, we have to ride Up first, we don't get driven!) and running, of course! Plus hiking should start soon, too, once the snow is gone from the higher altitudes! Hope you're well?

Hello all!
I had noticed in the past that woman reach a certain point in their recovery...and just disappear.
Guess that was a month ago for me ;)
All is going along fine, so far the left breast is responding well to the second surgery- by that I mean it hasn't swollen up and become rock hard again.
Thank God.
Looks like I'm in the clear.
They are more or less the same size and feel.
Now I'm at the stage where I need to go and get measured for a bra, because I have No idea what size I'm at o_O
I'm back to skiing as of March first, so aside from working that's All I've been doing :)
Life, in general, is pretty good.
I'll update with more pictures as soon as I a) get a new bikini that fits properly!
And b) lose the five or six winter pounds I've gained :D
C'est la vie- happens every winter...
I hope everyone is doing really well, I'm so sorry to have not been checking in regularly!
I'll try not to make a habit of disappearing...
Hugs to all, be well and healthy!
