15 weeks post OP. I still have swelling :-( some days better then others. I look exactly the same as my last pictures only my scars are a little lighter and my breasts have settled more in place and feel so much more natural. I will post pictures soon. I hope everyone is healing healthy and nicely.

Thank you for sharing your story. What a fabulous transformation! You look fantastic!!!! Dr. Hicks is doing an upper and lower bletharoplasty on me next week. I'm a little nervous but after seeing the magic he performed for you I feel much better. I hope today you are better than ever.

You look great, I think you are a butterfly.
Besides showers have you taken a bath yet?....I'm dying to just take a nice bubble bath
Seriously, is that even the same woman... what a fantastic transformation! You must be thrilled to bits! I too am 7 weeks (op date 14 March) and I am also in the throws of swell hell. It was better at week 6 and now it has gotten worse - I feel and look like I did at 3 weeks! Still this is part and parcel of it... do you do any form of self massage to help? Just think what you will look like in another 7 weeks... we are still in the beginning of this whole journey!
Wow what a transformation! Thanks for sharing your journey. I'm in POD #10 today!! Yesterday We went to a family get together 1 hr drive from home. No one knew I had surgery and still doesn't. I did sleep all the way back home though I guess having to walk and sit straight wore me out. Thanks for sharing and this is an awesome site to get share info and I'm so glad I stumbled on it prior to my TT/MR/smart LIpo. I'm still confused about something's but hopefully things will clear up soon.
Just caught up on your story, fabulous weight loss and such a transformation after your surgery, you look amazing, I bet you are so pleased with the results, how lovely to be able to wear that bikini after 7 weeks must feel like a dream come true. I am only POD 6 so very early stages here. Good luck with the swelling xx
