Bra

WORTH IT$500
In previous posts I mentioned how hard it was to find a bra that fit and looked cute. Well.... I found one!
I sat in Victorias secret for a couple hours and tried on around 50 bras. But I found one that goes wide enough on the sides!

Thank you! I relied on others posts when I was beginning my journey, so I wanted to help as well. :)

I LOVE your nickname "FLATtering"!' How funny and what a great attitude! I think you look fantastic! I had my implants and capsules removed on April 11 and it feels so good to have soft boobies again! You're a lot younger than I, but our husbands sound a lot alike! I laughed so hard when I heard that he put your implants under his shirt and ran around with them! How funny! I keep looking in the mirror at my sad little deflated boobies, but hopefully they will fluff up in the months ahead. This would sound very weird to anyone who hasn't had their implants removed, but once a while I just have to give my boobs a soft squeeze, because I can't believe how soft they are now! It's taking some getting used to how flat I am now, but I don't regret getting those toxic rocks out of me at all! My implants were so hard, they hurt almost all of the time and I hated them so much. Now I can give soft hugs to everyone and not feel self-conscious anymore. Anyway, I just wanted to check in and tell you that I love your sense of humor and positive attitude! You're really looking great! [RS bleep]

Oops, looks like I left out a few words, but hopefully you get the gist of what I'm saying. I was dictating from my iPhone. I love that feature, but I have to make sure I speak a little slower!

Thank you! Attitude is everything and I was exactly the same way.. I hated mine lumpy hugs, heaviness, and achy. I'm so glad to hear that you are happy with your outcome and decision! My husband always knows how to cheer me up when I'm down, that's when I was Insecure about the baggy skin.
Soft hugs and happy healing. :)

I laughed about your husband wearing them too! I'm thinking maybe I can make mine into something useful, like a large paper weight... ;)

Good idea, the_natural_me! That would certainly be an awesome conversation starter! LOL!

You really are looking great!! Are the bandages scar strips??
May 6, 2014
Thank you. They are scar away bandage straps. They have flattened my scars really well and reduced the redness too.

Looking really good, FLATtering and I'm so glad you're happy and feeling better! No more body and head aches AND you found a comfy, pretty bra! Woo hoo! I've been thinking of using scar strips for the incisions under my breasts, but not sure how to use them. Well, I guess I need to go to the drugstore and check them out!! LOL! Duh! My PS did tell me it was okay to use them and that they work well. He told me that Mederma scar gel doesn't do anything, so not to waste my money. I had already bought it and I've been using it. Not sure it's doing anything because its too soon to tell, at 3 wks, but nothing has changed by using it at all. Who knows? I think I'll try the scar strips because my incisions are a little "ropey" right now. Kind of like round shoelaces in some spots. Some days the incisions are red and some days they aren't. They don't look infected and they don't hurt. They are closed up and I can take baths. I can't use a public pool or go into a jacuzzi until it's been 6 weeks. After 6 weeks, my PS said I can return to ALL of my normal activities! Yay! I'm a little more than half-way there!

That's awesome you are so close!
I used Moderna on the mole that I had removed and it hasn't done anything. It is bright red and bulging. I'm going to start the scar away on it now.
Mine were like laces too much less now.

I am happy with my results at 3 weeks post. I have been blessed. I am seeing improvements daily and I'm not scared anymore.
I woke up at 4am last night and just sat there and felt the lightness of my chest =)
My backaches and headaches have gone away completely. My skin is more vibrant and I have less breakouts. I have more energy and I smile alot more.
When I scheduled the explant I wanted to be natural again but I was doubting my bodies ability to shrink back. I'm so glad I didn't listen to that fear... our bodies are truly a magnificent thing!
Women... don't doubt yourselves we are amazing!

Thanks for sharing your story! I'm actually in that doubting phase right now, and your words & photos are giving me the courage I need! :-) You look great, congratulations!
April 18, 2014
That phase is tough. Hang I there and you will be confident in no time!
It is hard to go from big to small that fast it's almost as if we go in shock.
Thank you for your support and kind words :)
