One Month Follow Up and Green light to bra shop
I had my one month follow up on Friday. Scars healing up perfectly, and completely. Doc gave me the green light for working out and for bra shopping and wearing underwire bras too! WHOOT! So I went to Victoria Secret because I had $150 in gift cards to spend and I had them measure me... I was pleasantly shocked when she told me I am a 34D. Everything I tried on in a 34D padded, wire, push up, no wire, no push up no pad... fit me perfectly!! If I wear a front snap/close bra I have to buy a 34DD. So I bought one of them and a few of the others, padded, non-padded and pushup etc. I love my new bras and I love how I look in them too!! I was on cloud nine when I walked out of that store!! I will post pics soon I promise... my phone has been giving me a fit when I try to upload photos to this sit, it says failed. :( so I will have to do it a different way!

Three Weeks Post Op
Well, three weeks in and I am feeling pretty good, still a little soreness around the incision areas. Waiting for them to drop still of course. I was really tired the first two weeks after surgery but this week has been better my energy has bounced back more. I have gained 5 pounds though and I am having a complete [RS bleep] fit over that. I need to get back to the gym for regular work outs and no more eating out except for a salad. lol Damn body and hormones and thyroid anyhow. I am on thyroid meds, I have been for a few years and I can attest that this surgery did knock my hormones out of whack for a bit... I am sure it will take time for everything to settle down. My hot flashes came back with in a week of being off the estrogen (prior to surgery) I am back on that so my flashes have stopped except I still sweat at night time yet. Wish my hair would stop falling out so much but that was expected anytime any kind of surgery my poor hair takes a big time beating... That's why I try to put a year in between each surgery and try to do more than one procedure at the same time so I am only going under that one time. I tried to upload my back side pictures but this site acted up and I could not get them up loaded. I will try again later. This weekend I am going to be painting in my new place (that i will be moving to this summer). But I have help so it shouldnt be too bad. Has anyone else gained any weight with the implants (besides the implant weight) bc after surgery i weighed myself and I was less than when I went in surgery. So if I really look at it that way I only gained two pounds.. but still it concerns me. I eat a lot of veggies and not a lot of breads and stuff... I am actually gluten free for the most part. I hope everyone has a good weekend. :)

I think you may have gained weight because of the lipo. When i had it done i weighed more initially probably bcuz of all the swelling and fluids they put in. I know a lot of girls get bloated/constipated bcuz of pain meds too.

I stopped prescription pain meds by the third day after the surgery. Mine is thyroid I think bc the surgery does knock hormones out of sync and whack for a bit. At least I am hoping it's just that. My swelling has gone down significantly in all areas. Nipple sensitivity has slowed down and now I am just waiting for them to finish dropping. That part I am a little impatient with. I was looking at a girl on here who only had 300cc put in and about 6 months in they really looked good and larger than when she first had them done. I hope mine do the same thing.
