Update almost 8 years later!

Last January I had my first mammogram. Everything looks great! The capsule looks appropriate. No leakage. No signs for concern. You do need a bit of a more in-depth mammogram but my insurance paid for it without problems because I’m over 40. Under 40 you may need to self pay.

Things I wish I would have known. If you are super strong. Like benching over 200lbs strong. You will lose your top lifts forever. I was consistently bench pressing 205 before surgery. I have never been able to bench over 185 since. Flat bench is still very uncomfortable over 155. I feel like something is going to rip even 8 years later. So that has definitely been a bummer for me, I really used to have a lot of pride in my bench. And competing in powerlifting is now in my past. I do everything in some sort or incline these days. Also if you have very developed pecs, your implants may not fully drop. Not a terrible problem. I’m 43 and after 8 years I have no stretching of my skin and no drop in my breasts. My muscles just hold them tightly. I’m still very happy with the size I chose. And the outcome of my surgery. Since I have felt more feminine and sexy. Again I went from no breast tissue AA to a DDD.
I have full sensation and feeling in my breasts as well. It took probably 3-4 years to regain full feeling. Funny things. When I fly. I can hear my implants creak and make noise from the change of pressure after!

Two Weeks

Adding a few pictures. Even with all the pain. It has been worth it!

Am I a Wuss?

Ok for the past 2 days it's been rough. Everything that was numb, has woken up. Other than being able to sit up on my own, I feel like I'm back to day 3 or 4. No I'm not taking any pain pills or OTC meds. But at two weeks, I feel like I shouldn't need them. Yes, I'm stubborn.

But on the good side. My incisions look great. I love the size I chose. No regrets. I don't wish I went bigger. I can still wear all my clothes. My body is exactly proportioned. My hips and bust are exactly the same. They are dropping naturally, no band. I just go without a bra much as possible.

If the pain would stop. I'd be a happy girl. I wanted to start walking and doing light cardio today, but it's a no go. My PS says if I'm in pain I'm doing to much. Ugh. I can't sit for more than 3 min at a time. I stay home with a four year old. Ok, trying to slow down.

One thing I forgot to mention early is the bloating. I was insanely bloated for 10 days. At one point gaining 16 lbs. about 3.5 is the implants. I looked 8 months pregnant. Thank God I fit into my pants again. I was about to go crazy.

I'll post pics tomorrow. I'm just hurting too much to do it today.

Thanks for your Support!
