I am very nervous, but I am excited at the same time. I will update as soon as I am finished. I will have before and after pictures as well. I lost 60 lbs and am ready to be able to wear a swimsuit without being insecure about how I look. This surgery has been long awaited :) I am also going down in implant sise

Girl you look great!
I'm also thinking about doing my mid section and my inner thighs along with other areas. Kind of nervous though. How's the recovery period?

My recovery
Ready4changes43September 4, 2016
I have had someone with me since surgery. You will need help. I researched a lot before doing this. I made sure I could rest the entire time so as to get the best results.
Urinating will be difficult. I used a go girl female urination funnel (bought on amazon 4 for $10). This took a minute to get used to, but kept all urine off of my bandages and I did not have to sit down, which was difficult for me.
I stayed ahead of pain with medication, but now have been tapering off. Ice packs placed in area of incisions help when the itching starts.
I wear my compression garments and binders non stop. This makes me feel better.
I am still pretty swollen, but can already see major improvement. I have not wore shorts or skirts above the knee in 20+ years. This limited me in everything. I was miserable in my own skin. Looking down and not seeing the skin hanging is huge.
I went down in breast implant size. I have been a 38DD -DDD for 20 years. My previous implant size was 610 cc. I received a lift and implant exchange. I now have 400cc and should be a 36-38 D. I am VERY happy with this. I have had almost zero pain with the breast surgery.
My bruising was great, but I took Arnica Montana tablets and drank tons of pineapple juice. I believe this helped with reducing the bruising.
I am still very stiff and have a hard time sitting up straight and bending over. I have rested this entire time so as to not have any separation of the incisions. I have been successful by doing this.
I will post after pictures on Wednesday. This will be 2 weeks postop.
I hope that those thinking about doing this will become educated beforehand. I am absolutely happy with my results so far. This was the best decision for me.
