Healing has been going well. I am now a little over two months post op, and things are looking pretty good. I am still wearing sports bras, but have otherwise resumed my normal daily life, including weekly Zumba classes.
I have had some irritation with my internal stitches, namely stitches coming out of my skin! So annoying, and one had a tough time pushing through which did not feel that great!
Otherwise, I'd say everything is great. I'm still so glad I did it--my posture has improved a lot, and everything just fits so much better!

Well all my tape is off! So much of it was flaking that I finally just went for it and gently removed all of the strips. Doesn't look too bad!
I did notice though that my right breast seems bigger than my left, which it didn't when I had my first peek. My fiancé agrees that it definitely feels a bit more swollen so I'm hoping that corrects in time.
I restarted my gym membership yesterday, and will be getting back into my cardio routine on the elliptical and my strength routine shortly after. Think ill still be avoiding Zumba for a bit though, still not comfortable with the idea of jumping! I can't wait to be completely healed.

Getting close to a month post op! Some of my tape is starting to come off. The scars seem a little prominent, but I know it'll be no big deal by next year.
Most exciting thing that has happened is one of the stitches at the very end of my incision on my side was popping out, which got super annoying so I went to the PS office to have them handle it. We got it taken care of but OUCH! Reminded me that I'm still healing yet.
I can lie on my stomach but I won't put my full weight on my front side lying down. Feels like any time now I'll be able to go get that long needed massage! And the chiropractor.
My breasts have also "dropped" ever so slightly looking a bit more round and natural rather than boxy. I'm pretty pleased with how they look!
Now that it's March my hours at work have increased. 50 hours each week, and every other Saturday on top of that until April, when I then work 66 hour weeks until the end of June. Glad I had the procedure done with enough time to recover before things got crazy!
Still planning on not taking new pics until all my tape is off. Probably a week or two on that.
