So it's been a full 6 days since I had surgery. So far I am able to bathe on my own dress and apply dressing on my own. I still get winded and find myself tired often then not. But I am 100 percent better the day one post surgery. I know I have a long journey to go through before I am back to my old active self again. But I feel confident that I have and will continue to made the right choices.

Big reveal
Day three and I was able to shower today. My mom helped to bath me. I used dial antibacterial soap. My mom was very careful. It felt great to be able to bath and actually see the result of my reduction. I am still getting used to them. I feel like they might be to small but I do have to remember that I have had large breast all my life. I can actually see my abs a bit more then before. That means a great deal. So my follow up appointment is Monday I assume the stitches will come out. So far I think I am healing well. Will keep you guys posted.

Looks great... What size were you before and what size are you now? How long before you can go back to work?
Flattummy2016 I was a 34 dd I am not sure what size I am now. I guess I'll know after the swelling goes down I'll be at home for 4 weeks recovering. Thank you for the commentary

Sounds like all is going pretty well for you. I'm scheduled for Friday and getting a bit nervous.
You will do great. Deep breaths as long as you take things slow and stay hydrated you will be great. I didn't realize what had happened until my procedure was complete
