Still feeling really good. Yesterday I took my pain medication but really would of been fine without it. I was just afraid of any pain, which I haven't had. Today I've taken no pain medication at all so I don't think I'll need to take it any more. Only uncomfortable feeling is the stitches healing. Just a little itchy but definitely tolerable. I'm for sure going to be an A cup( was a small b before ba). I think I've lost breast tissue due to my implants for 6 years. I'm hoping my skin retracts because I am very deflated. Which is fine I did expect that but it just doesn't look great. When I take my sports bra off to take a peek it literally feels like a "mudslide" on my chest. I can feel the skin just fall. Has anyone else had this feeling? Please tell me I will fill out a little bit or at least will have my skin tighten up? Thanks! Still very happy:)

Day of treatment
Implants no more!!!
Surgery went great! Was so much easier than I thought. Since I did a local I was awake and felt barely anything at all. The nurses were wonderful and doctor was great too. All I felt was the little poke from the needle here and there to numb me. Don't know if I didn't feel much due to the nerve damage done from the ba or if my doctor was just very genital. I felt the left implant actually being pulled out (the pressure that is) it felt like a relief, was actually a cool sensation. I was in the surgery room for about 40 minutes. Still can not believe how easy this was. Was actually laughing and joking a little with the nurses during it. As they wheeled me out I was smiling from ear to ear so happy that I didn't feel any pain and that I was all done. I'm in a sports bra now, constantly looking at my very small boobies and loving what I see! Zero regrets! I did just take a second peek at my breast with no sports bra and it is a little unnerving, just a little indentation on my right side. Hoping that fills out over the next couple of weeks. But just wanted to update all who was thinking of me and I want you girls to know how comforting it is to know that you were thinking of me. Feeling really good but I guess I'll just take it easy today. Glad to be me again that's for sure!!!!!!

Yay! Welcome to the lighter side! We did it! Glad to hear all went well and you are on your way to recovery and healing. How are you feeling? I'm shocked at how great I feel. Basically no pain at all. I can feel where the incisions are today but just a little bit of burning no real pain. Looking forward to your updates! :)

explant tomorrow!
Had a my last run today since I know I can't workout for about 2 weeks. Just finished cleaning house so I won't have to do it for another week. Made soup yesterday for my recovery. Still finishing up some laundry just getting ready for tomorrow. I'm not so nervous yet, I'm sure when I get there everything will feel more real. I've been talking about doing this for so long and I can't believe its really happening! I wonder how I'm going to feel? I'm hoping just back to myself. Fingers crossed!
