Let's see, rewind to 9 years ago. Had a beautiful healthy baby girl, breast fed...and didn't have, or rather at the time I thought I had been left with nothing. Looking back today? I had incredibly beautiful perky supple breasts. However we don't always see that when we are young and impressionable. So what did I do? I got breast implants. And here begins my journey after finding myself, and getting these fake boobies out! Excited to see my natural beautiful breasts again!

Neck and back pain be gone!
Absolutely ecstatic to run, practice yoga, swim... Sleep!! Sleep?? What's that? For over a year now my implants have caused sleep issues, neck, and back pain. The knots I get along side my spine are horrendous, the in my upper back, giving me pain down the right side of my arm and wrist. Joint pain? I literally sit on my arm at night to try and stop
The pain. Me whomever never takes anything pharmaceutical has succumbed to Advil PM, Tylenol...
I was looking at my breasts the other day and noticed how tiny my natural frame is. I am excited to see and feel my real beautiful breasts again. Not to mention implants have ruined my self esteem. I never want to take my shirt off during sex because my implants look... Yes FAKE!! My husband adores and loves me and finds me sexy. I don't let him touch those hard balls. Squishy on the sides but come on, straight on? It's like basketballs. I always tell him he has his own down yonder...:) most of all just excited to be the beautiful, natural, sexy, elegant woman that I am. ORGANIC. Does anyone have a good shopping list for after the explant surgery??

I love your story so far and that you are going to be natural! Here's a list of supplies for recovery. It's not all inclusive, but it does list what one user found really helpful.
I'll be watching for your updates!

Thank you Angiemcc!! So delighted to be apart of this community! Certainly makes me feel more calm going into the surgery.
December 13, 2013
Your going to LOVE your natural self again! I know I do, I'm 1 month post explant!
December 13, 2013
:) Yaaay! I love love to eat, and am trying to convince my husband to take me to Whole Foods after :) I think I read in your story you didn't have drains? I will have them.. I think I'm most worried about that... And the shot.. Yikes.
December 13, 2013
The shot wasn't so bad & no I did not have drains. You might want to take it easy after. Though I know some ladies had no problem with having the drains & getting things done. Maybe shop BEFORE the surgery, just in case your a little sore.
December 13, 2013
I was most worried about the drains too. They're not pleasant, but not as bad as you would think.
December 13, 2013
They just look so scary! Not that my implants are gorgeous or anything... but you know what I mean? Did you have a lot of draining? Is it mostly just blood? Did anyone have to help you with them? Sorry for the million questions
December 13, 2013
Yeah as usual as a woman we think we an just do it all. Great advice though, I need all the advice I can get!! How are you feeling? I bet its so awesome to be natural again
December 14, 2013
Sorry outtahere, I meant all of that in a positive way :) women just go go go! Sorry if it came across the wrong way
December 14, 2013
No need to be sorry. No offense taken! ;-). I'm so happy & excited for you!
December 13, 2013
Welcome... :) We can go through this journey together :)
December 13, 2013
I havent got mine done yet :( Im still searching for a Dr. Id like to have them done ASAP though.. Pretty sure it will be shortly after the new year.
December 14, 2013
Yes... I found out that my insurance will cover the removal and I have to pay for lift out of pocket if I choose but Ive bene interviewing out of network Dr in case I find a good reasonable one. There are only a couple with good reviews that take my insurance so thats where Im at with that.

Experience
"Experience is not what happens to us, experience is what we do, with what happens to us"
I've realized in the last couple of months as my back and neck pain have gotten worse, Ive become angrier and angrier with myself. My normal happy got get em attitude seemed to all but vanish. I was taking my inner anger out on my husband, whom was not always to blame for the things I was angry about. Then I realized what I was doing and how it was affecting our everyday lives. Being angry with myself for a choice I made a long time ago wasn't going to help today. Putting everything in me to curb my attitude and anger and turn it into positivity hasn't been easy. But I realize that this is just part of my journey and I can turn my experience into something that helps other women, and at the end of the day my experience has made me wise. I am truly thankful for all the wonderful things in my life, and although it seems strange, I am thankful for this experience. I am extremely thankful to be natural again!!!
I do have to say the lady at my PS office, Kerri Norris has been fabulous. She's incredible at her job and has put up with all my annoying questions!

Congrats on your decision to go natural, you will feel such relief and joy! Good luck on surgery day :)

I can totally relate, I am so mad at myself for doing this mine 14 yrs ago, and cannot wait to have them removed, I've wanted them out from day one, and it's only been a financial reason.
Hope you love your new/old body back:)
