Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

I finally got my dh to take some photos. My left nipple has an obvious scar but my doctor says it will subside with time. The right nip scar is barely noticeable. I've been working out at the gym 3 to 4 times a week and feel great. I am taking it very slow on exercises involving the pecs, but am able to do bicep curls, rows, overhead press with light weights with no discomfort. I find that lower ab work is fine, but upper ab work gets uncomfortable fast.
I feel so good now and love how I look in nice clothes and not need a padded bra.
I hope everyone here on the boobie blogosphere are doing well.

28 days post op, 4 weeks. Feeling super!
This past Monday, 25 days postop, I saw my PS for the third post op appointment and was given clearance to do anything I want to, except to let comfort be my guide. Also, no more strap is needed and no more tape on the incisions.
I did a workout at the gym tonight and incorporated a "mini" circuit training workout. Using the smallest dumbells (only 3 pounds!) for lat raises, and 10 pound dumbells for single leg romanian deadlifts. It felt good. I did some pushups, girl-style, but not many because it was uncomfortable. Pushups will take longer to get used to.
I had started with 30 minutes of cardio with a few intervals revving up my heartrate into zone 3. Sweating felt so good. I'll gradually build up my cardio and weight training over the next several weeks.

I had a great workout at the gym today. I also walked the dog before going to the gym. I am feeling more normal, except for taking it very easy with upper body stuff.
DH has been key to my smooth recovery so far. He is attentive and sweet. A lot of the bruising color is nearly gone from my left side, and about half gone from my right side. I asked him what he thought of my breasts...he loves them and am amazed at how much younger I look! I can't wait until these puppies drop and fluff. They are feeling softer but still look squarish at the upper pole.
Earlier today I went to mall and decided to visit Victoria's Secret to see if there were any interesting little nighties without underwires. I have not been to a VS for years. So, I was a little surprised to see teenaged girls shopping there, but I know it's a trend for them. But I have to say that I was shocked to see a male salesclerk there! I may be showing my age, but I'd not be comfortable answering honestly to the standard sales question, "are you looking for something special?". LOL, I think I"ll just order online.
