Well apart a little reaction to the plasters I have to say I am ecstatic with the outcome - two weeks on and already they are starting to look like breasts!! After removal of the 'plasters' I have had some irritation but to be fair nothing of any consequence.... I've ordered some scar serum but have to admit to being very impressed by both the condition positioning of them. I've started exercising again with the nurse just suggesting that I avoid heavy weights for a little while yet - I've been spinning and managed light kettle bells and even side plank (something I hate doing at th best of times) I start a new job on Monday so no doubt that will show me whether I really am as recovered as I feel. So happy with ththe new me :) xx

Day three..... No change and feeling happy :)
bubbles24March 18, 2016
Having said I'd take a picture every day I suppose I hoped thatbyetbagainbthere would be an improvement this morning however that said they sure do look cute in my sports bra and a marks and spencer post surgery bra also fits really well so I'll be ordering in different colours today!!! In myself I am again feeling a little tired but little discomfort which is super..... Another day of feeling really pleased I have done this [RS bleep]

i'm glad your explant surgery went well. i too am having my out after 30 years wednesday may 23rd before easter. i have a question maybe you ladies can help me with. i was planning on having easter for 6 people including myself. do you think i could cook a few things on easter sunday including a 8 pound ham just four days after explant surgery? i would have to lift the ham myself. tell me ladies what you think? i appreciate any comments.

Hi Jean, I have been bitting and bobbing since i got home but have been surprised just how much it has taken out of me and my op didn't include a lift (not sure if yours will)... Just take care not to promise and then not feel up to it as you may be better with a bit of help :) take care and hope all goes well [RS bleep]

i'm small like you bubbles24 so i doubt lift. i am happy you had them out. i think small is the "in" thing now. what was i thinking 30 years ago. young and dumb. i would not recommend them to anyone at all. be yourself. thanks for your input.
March 18, 2016
hi bubbles24 one more question. did you get any instructions on how much you should or should lift after your surgery. like i indicated earlier i want to make a 9 pound ham and don't know if i should be lifting it or not. thanks
March 19, 2016
Hi Jean.... I just focused on the exercise element when asking about specific lifting - that said 9lb is pretty hefty and I know just trying to lift a box of Diet Coke yesterday didn't feel very comfortable :) xx

Hi Jean, it's one heck of a roller coaster ride as I swing from euphoria at just being me again to anger with myself for having the implants in the first place and making this necessary :) I don't feel able yet to show my partner as I'm really not sure how he is going to react but he's seen them in a bra and doesn't seem too disturbed!!! How are you feeling??
March 20, 2016
hi bubbles24. i'm sure your partner will be fine with your natural self. i'm hoping to have surgery wednesday but my insurance is pending on the surgery. don't know if they will cover it or not. my implants are hard and i'm sure a lot of scar tissue. pings and pinches. happy you made the decision and feel better getting them out. i will keep you informed as to my surgery. p.s. my sister offered to make the ham so i'm not worrying about that now.
March 20, 2016
Hey Jean. Firstly, wishing you the best of luck with your explant. Secondly, I wouldn't try and lift anything of any weight for a good few weeks personally. I'm 18 days post op and still trying to take it easy. I'm in a little pain in my right rib currently (not sure what that is about) but all in all I feel I'm doing really well. It has been extremely hard doing nothing as I'm usually very active.personally I wouldn't chance your Easter Sunday gathering unless someone else volunteers to do the hosting as you will probably be extremely tired. I also would not lift a 9lb ham. Hope that helps. Take care xx
March 21, 2016
yes your input helped me tremendously. thank you soo much. happy you had yours done. i will update everyone post surgery.
March 18, 2016
Hi Bubbles! You look fantastic and I definitely see a change! The body is truly miraculous in it's healing powers. I am so blown away by how fast we heal. Everyday just keeps getting better and better! Happy healing!
March 18, 2016
Thanks Julie..... I know I've done the right thing, just itching to get back to my running now as exercise is such a big part of my life :) and I am sooooo impatient lol [RS bleep]
March 18, 2016
It is amazing how much better it feels to run without the implants. You are going to love it, but try to be patient and heal first! That is the absolute best thing you can do for your body. The less trauma the first couple of weeks the better! Your results are similar to mine except, lucky for you, you have a little more breast tissue! I love the way mine look in clothes now and I am no longer hiding them behind baggy tops! Feeling light and free too! Happy healing.......try to be patient!
March 24, 2016
Can I add - please take it easy exercise wise! Your body will thank you for it. I still feel it 5 weeks on when I've slept on my side or front so that goes to show that internally there's still healing to be done. I'm going hillwalking on the treadmill to get toned but nothing more. In the grand scheme of things you can afford to take some time off running to truly heal up xx

Day two......
bubbles24March 17, 2016
I'm planning on taking a photo everyday as I am now feeling more confident about the outcome and think reminding myself of progress made, however small, will help reinforce this...... I'm very tired today so need to maybe rest more!! The photo I think shows a weeny bit of improvement so all good :) [RS bleep]

Wow DEFINATELY progress, look at that! How fast things change!... You'll be amazed by the month mark!... ;) I've seen so many upset with their initials then woah they look totally different after a few weeks or months! I'd just be wrapped to be on the other side looking like you!... Except I wanna look like me... If I can remember...?! Lol
March 17, 2016
Thank you so much - I did genuinely think I saw progress but you're never sure if that's because you want it so much :) [RS bleep]
