Hey guys! It's been quite awhile since my last update. My breasts have dropped a lot since then. Things are feeling good! I have my 3 month post op check up next week so fingers crossed everything goes well. The only odd thing is that my right boob (left side in pics) feels like the pocket is bigger. I can actually feel the heaviness of the implant and it moves around a lot more. I will be bringing that up to my surgeon because it just doesn't feel "right." Also, I'm going to ask if I can wear underwire bras - I am so sick of the non-underwire ones I have (they look good and are sexy, but I'm so limited on my options). Also, I think I was supposed to get scar cream at my 1 month post op check up but I didn't and my scars definitely need to be treated ASAP. Hopefully I will get all of those things answered next week. :)

Not much to report! Things are feeling good, no more pain, and although I still can't feel the bottom of my boobs, they finally feel like mine and I don't feel uncomfortable with them on my chest like I used to. Still have lots of dropping to do. Not sitting super high but are still quite tight especially on top and have tons of softening to do too. Also my nipples are not quite even but it really doesn't bother me as long as they are at a position where bras/swim suits will be able to easily cover them! Little imperfections like that give them a slightly more natural look anyway ;)

I have been back in the gym since Thursday and I'm cleared to take things slow so I've been doing light leg work (without any use of my arms) and cardio. So far so good! Not feeling any pain or tension which is all a good sign. My surgeon said every week I can start adding new things and working upwards towards my arms for muscle groups until the final week (6 weeks) I can actually work arms/shoulders and I'll be cleared without any gym restrictions at that point. So maybe next week I will work on abs or add some weight to my leg workouts. We will see! Just listening to my body and not pushing myself at all :)

I have my 1 month post-op appt next week and that is when I will find out if I am cleared for a cruise I have planned Feb 10th. Only thing I need to know is if my incisions are healed well enough or else I won't be able to soak in any oceans or pools. Not the end of the world but I did book my surgery letting the clinic know that I wanted to be good to go for my cruise on that date, so I would hope I wouldn't get screwed over. Incisions are looking great though so I expect good results for my next appt :)

Let me know if there are any pictures or angles or clothing pieces you guys would like to see on me! Honestly I have only bought 2 sports bras (one is seen in my latest update before this post) but nothing else. I still wear my surgery bra for day to day activities and sleeping at night. It's quite comfy and the straps work really well where they aren't seen in certain tops because they don't have the racerback shape. Also I am kind of frugal in the sense that I don't want to buy bras right now not knowing if they will fit once my boobs have fully dropped. And I'm not cleared to wear underwire for awhile so I'm not even searching around for those right now.

Overall I am super happy with my boobs! I'm falling more in love with them everyday. I don't have any boob greed. I don't have any depression over no longer having my smaller boobs. I am very happy that I made this choice and hope to continue feeling this way as they settle! :)

Busting out of sports bra - 32E

User Avatar

I'm cleared to start super light workouts this Thursday (yaaaaaay!), but all of the bras in my closet need to be put on over my head which is still a bit difficult for me. And they also may not even fit me anymore, not sure. So of course I used this as an excuse to go buy more workout clothes from Lululemon (I'm a Lulu lover)! I tried on their Ta Ta Tamer which is supposed to give the most support and also attaches by a clip in the back (bingo!) and I ended up "fitting" in the 32E which still looked like I was spilling out lol. Obviously my boobs still have dropping to do and I don't know how accurate Lulu's bra sizes are in comparison to VS, but the 32E size still shocked me. Can't wait until I get to try on real bras! Won't be for another couple months though.
