Got the stitches out yesterday. It was too painful. I admit I did freak out a tiny bit on how my areoa's looked, but they taped them back up so I didn't have enough time to nit pick them to part! The neuropathic pain has gotten better thank goodness and I am not allowed to start the massaging. The massaging feels good to start getting things less hard, but also seems to [RS bleep] the girls off about 10 mins after I'm done. Just another part of this fun journey. I do very. Much enjoy the shape and size and am anxiously awaiting when I can get out of the binding sports bra and into bra's that can actually reveal that I have boobs!! I have a date Sat night and laboring over what to wear that's date worthy while still having on this damn sports bra! :)

Oh, and I was cleared for light exercise so I'm off to the gym today. I typically do Pilates reformer classes and spin classes but since I can do neither, I'm going to get on the bike and slowly ride. I won't burn NEAR as many calories as spin classes, but after not working out for almost 2 weeks I'm going crazy! It will be hard to not want to go "full speed" but I will be cautious!!

I was referred to Dr Marin by mutual friends. As soon as I met him I felt comfortable. He is not only professional, he is kind, funny, and meticulous in his work. The staff is amazing and I love Shannon!! I am super happy with my results, but how do others view Dr. Marins work on me? Here is an example: After my breast augementation I showed my results to one of the biggest skeptics in my network of friends. She was afraid I would look "unnatural" or they would be "too big on my petite frame". Here is a direct quote from her upon seeing my results. "They look GREAT! The size compliments your frame. They are classy, tasteful, and compliment your natural beauty nicely. Your Doc did an excellent job!" I think that says it all! I highly recommend Dr. Marin!!!!!
