13 weeks PO and feeling human again...YAY!!!!

I will be 13 weeks po tomorrow and I stopped wearing my garment at 11 weeks, accept for exercising. 10 days ago I started a diet and exercise program. I walk and light jog 2 miles, 3 days a week and I do Beach body's, slim and 6 " Burn it up" on the opposite 3 days a week. I do skip the ab workout on the slim n 6. I will tell you I am sooooo out of shape! I have lost 4lbs and I am now 140lbs. I'm usually 127lbs, so I have 13lbs too loose. I have been a terrible patient, will NO PATIENCE and have been so depressed, that I have eaten my way to an extra 15 lbs. Dumb I know...have surgery and gain weight...UGH!!! The swelling made me feeI so fat and without being able to exercise, I became depressed and fed my face. At least I know I am on the right road and within 6 weeks, I will be looking good! I first started working out with the garment on and this week, I said the heck with it and I am garment free!!! Feels great!!!!! I am going to Florida in 5 weeks, so I have to get rid of 10 lbs. That is 2lbs a week...Can I do it???? ;) I feel human again...YAY!!!!!!

I have had several message me and ask if I was...

I have had several message me and ask if I was happy with my breast lift.

I have been waiting for the swelling to go down, before I would said yay or nay. I have not been happy with the lift, but wanted to be patient. Now that the swelling has gone down, I am even more unhappy with the lift.

It is not terrible and it is nothing serious, I'm just not happy with it. I feel she rushed through my surgery and was suppose to do a small reduction in my right breast and it is obvious that she did not do the reduction. My right breast is still larger than the left. Nothing life threatening, but when you pay to have something done, you want it done right and she took shortcuts!

Also I have researched breast lift and I know there are 3 main breast lift. In my situation in having 50 yr old sagging breast, my type of breast lift should have been what is call the anchor lift. She only did half of an anchor???? Why???? I have no idea? Short cut I'm guessing.

One of the things I hated about having sagging breast is when I wore a bra, I always had to lift my boobs, because the bottom part of the breast would fall below the bra. It was so annoying! Well because she did not do an anchor lift, I still have the problem. This is so aggravating!

I would load a picture to show you why the anchor is important.

So those of you with sagging breast, tell the Doctor you want a full anchor breast lift, or you will not be happy. I did not mention the anchor to the Doctor, because she is the Doctor and she knows what she is doing. Or you would think so anyway. I never dreamed she would half do it!!!!

Anyway I hear so many that love their breast after surgery and though mine are not terrible, she did not do a great job. :(

An update on the TT. I am still swollen and feel fat and I am depressed most days. My healing has been so slow and can't wait to get past this!

You ladies that do not have all of this swelling and have healed quickly, you are very lucky!

I also want to say, that 10 days ago I sent Laura...

I also want to say, that 10 days ago I sent Laura a message and two pictures of my breast. I wanted her to see the difference in the size of my breast. I received no response! :(
