hey girls, thanks for all of your comments and support. I did my 1 week post op today. finally got all of that tape taken off. yayyyy. finally got to see the girls after one week of just looking at tape. Everyone says they look like implants haha (so much for a reduction right) lol. i can see now that they are smaller, but im hoping they go down more after all the swelling goes away. Doc says it will shrink up alot more and i will be crying for them. Don't know how true that is but we'll see. The lift looks good so far. One of them looks smaller than the other but im hoping thats due the swelling also.
I drove today for the first time since my surgery, wasnt bad at all.
I'm so tired of sleeping on my back, my back feels so sore. I cant wait to get a massage. lol. and its still hard for me to get comfortable on my side because i'm so swollen along the sides of my boobs.

Anyway, im feeling alot better today and im hoping with time i can really begin to embrace them.

Well tomorrow makes 1 week since my surgery and im officially disappointed. I am still a whole lot bigger than i wanted. On the day of my procedure he said he was going to take out 300 grams per boob, but i feel like i just had a lift with removal of excess skin. so frustrating. Anyway i go in tomorrow for my 1 week checkup and i will be sure to discuss of of this with him. Ever since the surgery i have had tape covering my entire breast and its very itchy, hard for me to find clothing to cover the damn tape and i haven't seen my actually breast as yet. ughhhh. other than that, i really havent had any pain, took pain meds for only 3 days and have been out and about walking from day 5.
I cant wait for my appointment tomorrow to get this tape off so i can finally see my boobs. I just post pics from the day after surgery but will post more tomorrow after i get the tape off.

From what I can see through the tape, your shape is wonderful! I hope that with time and healing you are less disappointed. Good luck at your appointment tomorrow!

I can see a difference and you look a lot smaller to me. Everyone has said it takes several weeks before all the swelling goes down. I hope after a few more weeks pass, that you will be happy with the size. Hang in there! : )

I'm sure within time you will find them the size you want them to be once the swelling goes down. From what I see but not from experience yet, there is alittle disappointment size wise until a few weeks of things settling down. Just give it sometime.

Hey everyone, I'm now 2 days post-op and i feel great (alot better than expected). Im not in any pain at all, the percocet works great. I feel a little discomfort when im trying to get out off bed or if i'm reaching for something but other than that i'm doing good. I was up and about today. night times are going good as well. I was never really a back sleeper, but its working out fine for now.

My boobs are still all bandaged/taped up so i havent really seen them as yet. Wont get the tapes removed until my 1 week check-up on friday. They look a little bigger than expected but i'm hoping thats because of the swelling.
My PS said that he managed to do the lollipop/short scar incision, he said that i was just at the right size for him to do it but if i was any bigger he prob wont have been able to. So, im happy about this because im suppose to heal a little faster and have less scars to worry about.
