Emotional Today UGH

I always read about people saying they had ups and downs emotionally after surgery. I am having one of those days! I was in an awesome workout routine before surgery and was seeing great progress and then i had surgery and now i feel like I'm set back. My days usually consist of at least a 1.5 hour workout and i feel great after. Without being able to work out I'm feeling lost. I am going through some decisions with my job, housing etc also so everything is kind of weighing me down right now. I didn't think i would get the emotional swings that other people got. I am mostly feeling fat and can't do anything about it. My boobs are the reason i can't work out and it sucks. I am not even a week post-op and i don't know how i will be able to not workout for a few more weeks. It's killing me already! Anybody else feel this way????

will my nipples ever stay hard again?!?!

Everything is going well. I am in little to no pain now doctor told me to be careful and not push it even though I'm in no pain. I'm having a hard time taking pictures of myself without looking lopsided and hoping it's just the camera angle and not me! The incisions are sore but other than that they are getting squishy. Hoping they don't get any smaller! Will my nipples ever get hard again?! They are mainly soft and weird looking. I also can't wait to work out. I have a big trip to Miami in 5 weeks and I'm going to lose progress. I need to have some time to tone up. Working out can't come soon enough!

Not sure about the nipplemthi g..Mine used to be constantly erect..and now they dont get that way..dont want my guy to be offended and think it's him .lol. Mostly I think that's just a time/ nerve regeneration thing, so I domt worry...but I relate..That said..your boobs are pretty miraculous..they look incredible, especially given how new they are!!!

You look great! Very natural. Be careful not to over do it. I had a great recovery & sometimes was reminded by my body to slow down, just listen to your body. I looked similar at 3 days post op & think I still look pretty much the same, just softer :) ( mine are a smaller version lol)

Finally for to take the bra off!

I went for my post op appointment today. I am feeling pretty good still. Dr. Seckel explained that they tried 500cc and everyone in the room agreed they were too big so we went for 450. I am hoping when the swelling goes down they will stay this size because i love them! I am going back Friday to start with massages and get my stitches out in 2 weeks. My throat is a little scratchy and it hurts to get up from sitting for a while but other than that i feel so good!

wow!!!!!!!!! AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!! I am following your progress… I am 5'10" and think my sizing will be similar to yours but i will be under the muscle. Take it easy!! You look amazing :):):)

They look great! Congratulations! I hope mine look that good

Expect for them to get bigger at least if you went under the muscle! I went under and my doc told me to expect to possibly gain up to a cupsize more over the healing process because the implants size was being held back by my pec being stretched so much.
