WORTH IT
So I'm 5 months out and the girls have settled. I have gained a bit of weight so my 36C is now a D. I'm pretty frustrated and I noticed my old stretch marks on the tops are more noticeable. Has anyone else noticed things like this? I know that they didn't remove all the skin so of course my stretch marks would be there still but I'm frustrated! With myself for gaining weight as its always the boobs to get bigger first!

Dont be too mad at yourself!! It was the holiday season!! Everyone gains a little!! When you lose it, it will come off the boobs :) They look great!!!
Hi! Can you give me any tips? I am going through the same doctor and from your photos we look like the same before surgery, are you happy with them 100%? Thanks
I would definitely recommend the arnica pills for the bruising and I bought one of those reading pillows that I slept on for a couple weeks. I was about 90% happy. He placed my nipples a little high. I can't wear low cut bras easily anymore. But I wouldn't trade what I have now for what I had then. I went through a bit of a depression and gained a bunch of weight so I have new stretch marks which makes me so mad.
They look great! Where did you get the Arnica pills from? and I am just hoping for natural/proportionat to my figure and perky beyond belief!
Mine were like muffins planted ony chest for the longest time until they had settled but it was months. Arnica you can get at community natural foods. When is your surgery set for?

The have the natural "hang" although my nipple on my left breast is still a little high and left it is much better than tucked into my pants! all in all I am very happy with my results

8 weeks post op and feeling great. Back to...

8 weeks post op and feeling great. Back to everything normal again and only get a slight pain in my ribs when I reach over head with my right hand. I've even tried sleeping on my stomach which is still slightly painful. I'm finally down to one bra which I'm sure for the most part everyone has been doing. I however have been wearing 2 bras day and night for 2 months, one underwire and one sports bra. My insicions aren't right at the base of my boob so it's never been a problem of pain it discomfort. Last week I tried just one bra but I still feel more supported with 2 depending on my activity. I will be returning to bootcamp shortly to get back into shape. I feel like my muscles have atrophied as the weeks passed.

It's funny cause sometimes I just give then a squeeze cause I honestly can't believe they are mine. Final size is a 36C. I can't believe 8 weeks ago I was a 36F or FF. it's amazing. I've finally stopped slouching like crazy. People(mostly guys) ask if I miss them and to be 100% honest there are days I do. Not the back aches and gross looks from men but they were part of who I was for so long. I'm happier and healthier than I've been in 15 years though so its time to move on. I've decided my next big endeavor is going to be a tummy tuck. I don't plan on becoming the tiger lady or anything but I have stretch marks and flab that I can't get rid of that I would like to be gone. No amount of sit ups removes a tummy full of stretch marks! I will post pics when I get on my computer soon. That's the best part after all. Seeing before and afters is what has made this forum so interesting!
