Quick update and pics

I am a little sad.... My husband mentioned that my boobs seemed to have dropped more. I think they are still perky and thought they looked good. But, this morning when I took the pics I felt they didn't loom nearly as good as my last pics. Hopefully it's all in my head... But I wish he wouldn't have mentioned it. I love my new body...but it seems he doesn't and has made several comments about the "ugly" or "Frankenstein" scar. ????
Also my weight has not changed but I feel bigger.... Even though I am smaller. I have consistently bought smaller clothes and they fit but I still feel fat. I always think the clothes I am buying (even though the correct size) are too small.... Like I am stuffing myself into them, in order to wear a size 4, but in reality I should be a 6 or 8. Does anyone relate????
I still workout between 5-6 times a week and I am very active throughout the day. My eating needs to get better,but as I said I have not gained.
Here are my latest pics.... A couple of things about the pics I am swollen because we ate Chinese food last night, also there's redness on my right nipple (if you can even see) because of a suture spit and take a look at the BA and see if they look droopy to you.

I think you look amazing! I don't know what your husband is talking about! You look tiny to me and your girls look beautiful!

They look great! Can't see what dropping he's talking about either.. It seems the size is not probably the issue...but more like the shape our new bodies have. I know with mine, I'm smaller in the waist area (which was NEVER an issue but I like it!) and bigger in my hips. Typical latina body but I love it...that's what I wanted. So I do take in my jeans at the waist to make them more fitted to my new shape. Maybe that's what you are experiencing. I've lost a total of 10 lbs since surgery in June...mostly muscle from begin so inactive this summer but I've started lifting again last month and feel great! I started at a 43" waist and am now a 33" waist. Couldn't be more excited. My scars didn't heal as pretty as yours but i"m ok with that too, considering what I started with. I'm following my yoga instructors advice and being kinder to myself. I hope you are doing well. I've missed everyone here!

Thank you!!! It was so great to read this...I have wondering how you are doing! I'm so glad you are doing so well! I am going on vacation this weekend and will get to put on a bathing suit and summer clothes... So excited!

Time has flown... since my last appointment when he cleared me if my garments and foam, he said I could fully workout.. I feel so normal. I have even been able to get a few jogs in. That has been the scariest to get back to. I don't want my new boobs to ruin. I work out between 5-6 times a week and rarely swell. If I do swell I blame it on food intake or lack of water. My weight has not changed since I lost after surgery. I am still right around 150 (which is just fine with me). I wore my new jeans this weekend and they actually felt a little big. Not big enough for a smaller size but it was nice not feeling all stuffed into them!

Now for some terrible news..... I rented a recliner for my recovery period. I got the idea from a fellow RS-er and though it was a great idea. It worked out really well UNTIL this last couple of weeks we discovered it left behind BEDBUGS.... I'm beyond disgusted. We have completely cleaned,exterminated, and rid of the mattress and bedding but we still have seen some bugs. Another deep clean yesterday and today will be another round of chemicals, but this is AWFUL!!! I never even thought of that as an issue while preparing since I had so much going on with the surgery and was just glad to have somewhere to recover. Now, though, I am beyond frustrated and weve paid tons of extra money to fix it. I have called the company that we rented from and so far nothing has been done!???? if you are planning to rent thoroughly research the bugs and place BC I didn't know anything about the bugs and could have prevented this.

OK on a happier note.... I will try to get some updated pics soon. As well as some updated measurements. Hope everyone is doing well!

Yay for the exercising! I feel so good now that I can exercise without all of my extra skin and baggage! :) And my new girls aren't getting in the way, even when I run! :) So sorry to hear about the bed bugs! I would have freaked out! Hope it can all be resolved soon for you!
