It is Time to Take These "Girls" Down a Notch!!! Insurance-Approved Breast Reduction - Cary, NC

Even though I am still swollen a little bit, I decided to go through my old bras and get rid of the ones that already don't fit. I was able to toss about half of my bras. There are a few that fit fine now, but may still get tossed later when the swelling is completely gone. I almost cried when I put on the pretty black lace bra that I bought about 14 years ago. You can see the same bra in my "before" pictures. I was spilling over. Now it fits perfectly.

Sorry I haven't updated in a while. It has been a crazy few weeks since the surgery. I actually just returned home last night after being across the country for a week for a wedding. Crazy, I know, that I would plan a surgery a week and a half before our vacation. But, all went very well. I think it was good to go as it took my mind off of the girls a bit. I took it easy and hubby carried my suitcase for me like I was a princess (LOL!). I have days were my breast feel full and huge. They feel like they did when I nursed my daughter. Almost like they are engorged. Very weird feeling. I started to occasionally sleep on my side. But, when I do, I still feel pulling a bit. During our trip, I was able to remove all the tape under the breasts. But, I can't bring myself to remove the tape around the nipples or the vertical incision from the nipple to the bottom of the breast.
It was fun to see old friends and family on our trip and for them to say how I look great and so thin ;). Remember I had lost twenty pounds before surgery as well. I told some about the surgery, but not all. Today I was doing wash and I took my comfy sports bra (my favorite to wear) off to throw in the wash. Hubby was shocked to learn that I was bra-less and the girls still stood up!
I also started to run a bit again. PS said I could run at 10 days post. The jiggling is a bit painful. So, it is more of a run/walk. PS said I could go back to the gym at 3 weeks post which is this Wednesday. I am so excited to get back to my workout routine. He also said I could do anything I did before the surgery at 3 weeks post. I was very surprised at that.
It is nice to see that my swelling is going down. Still a long way to go, but it is nice. Looks like I will probably end up being a nice "C". Proportionately it looks great and I have zero back pain. Yeah! I am in love with the new me.

Here is a pic of the girls 19 days post surgery.
