Week two so far so good
Hello everyone it's been two wks since my surgery and I'm making progress. My stiches are dissolving and the scars are looking great. I've had problems with stomach issues has anyone else? Had to go to doctor for meds. Don't know if it's something to do with the surgery or not. Excessive gas and stomach pains nauseous and headaches. I hope the meds work Bc I'm ready to be back to my old self. I hope everyone is doing great ttyl.

I'm sorry to hear you're having stomach issues. :( Are you feeling better about the size and shape?
Yes they are shaping up great!
Looking good (: hope ur stomach pains ease up soon so u can focus on the new girls!
Thanks I'm praying the meds work. I'm soo enjoying being lighter and having no back pains or shoulder pains its been very nice and life changing
what meds are you on because they are the likely cause of stomach issues. i got stomach pains from taking antibiotics without food post op. advil also upsets your stomach badly
I wasn't on any other meds at the time.

Oh honey, trust me, they will soften, round out and fall into place. It just takes a little time. I'm 6 weeks post and mine are still changing. I think if you give yourself a little healing time you will love them. How do you feel they look when your new bra is on?
I haven't tried on any new bras just a sports bra I'm still wearing thr surgical one it holds me secure and when I don't have it on they hurt around the stiches
You look great. You are just swollen, and it will take some time for the swelling to go completely down. You've got the weepy's something I had about a week after my surgery (I'm 3 wks post op). Get some rest. It will help.
Thanks I'm praying for patience something I don't have. This experience has been more emotional than I thought I would be. Rest I will get
Hi - did your ins. Co. Cover this? AND, did they require that you be a certain weight, I.e., your "normal" or a certain BMI?
Yes my insurance paided for it and they didn't require any weight requirements
Don't u worry! The swelling will go down and they will take shape! And they look great anyway (: but rest and remember they say swelling can take a while. Don't b discouraged! (:
Yes im 3 and a half weeks post op and mine are still swollen and changing daily but healing good...and everyone seems to recommend Bromelain for swelling good luck..it was well worth it for me
Thanks I've heard about bromelain but haven't picked up any yet. But I think I'm gone give it a try
