Waited for So Very Long - Honolulu, HI

Thought i would stop in and give and update. It has been almost 3yrs since i had my reduction. Best decision ever, i was not in the best shape when i had the surgery..a bit over 200lbs..finally in july of 2014 i changed my eating habits and began working out like a maniac..now that my boobs were smaller i could. They still felt big, but not as big..long story short..i lost 80 lbs going from a size 16 down to a 2..my breasts have shrunk seriously down as well..so much so, they are sad, and need a darn implant to firm up!! Although i measure at a D cup, i know that is all the skin..blech.. but i will take it over having larger breasts anyday. So i am very happy with my decision to do thr br..now i need a tummy tuck etc...

Well its been a yr since br...it has been a very tough journey for me...however i have no regrets..i am still not as small as i would like, but i am much smaller and i feel when i look at myself that i am more proportionatly correct. I look at old pics and cringe..so thats been good...i had a revision and some side lipo in january, and have struggled with that as well...my left side has drooped and i will need more revision later..i also have developed a horrible mastitis as well...just finished my antibiotics today..yup my severed milk duct decided to start producing milk..yup you read that right...i am almost 52!!!! They became inflammed and i started to leak milk, blood and fluid through my incision..it was horrible..its much better today, but still lumpy and very sore on my sides..shooting towards my back!! I really just want to be normal again without breast pain..they hurt still whenever i turn over in bed..like i still have to hold them as i move..got a bit depressed after the last surgery because i was eating and not able to work out so i could feel the 20lbs i lost coming back..trying to pull myself back from that hole..i think my family is over my boob issue as well..but i am still happy with the way they look...under my clothes anyway..i cant seem to love the left side naked...but i do love the right side!! Not looking forward to another revision so for now i just continue to heal...no regrets..except the one i cant control...that i should have done this when i was much younger..but oh well..love to all that have gone thru it all, and those that are just starting their journey

Just came from my ps fo five week check..all is well..but.....on my left side, there is a portion of skin that will need to be fixed..it is really lose, and ps said that he will fix that..he probably didnt do enough of the lipo there..ugh so in six months he will fix it..im tired of sore boobs....my sides a a little bumpy, but i just have to keep massaging them to break up that tissue so it doesnt bulge!! Lord knows i dont need more bulges.. Will post pics later...
