Well I think I can live with the new look of my freshly explanted boobies. these oics are as of today. I had the bags removed a couple of weeks ago and I feel amazing! Too happy! The boobs are starting to fluff again and I have been wearing my sports bra every night and a regular good bra during the day. I made the right choice and I don't know if I will do a lift at this point, I need one because one boob is bigger than the other but I think I might leave well enough alone.

Looking great, girlfriend! And don't worry about one breast being larger than the other - I think most women are like this. Plus, a lift won't get rid of tissue - it's skin only as I understand it. Don't you love the soft feeling of your new and improved girls?

Oh yes Long Tall Texan, I love the soft natural feel of my girls, got to hold my precious grandbaby this weekend for the first tim since the removal and oh there were no words to describe how wionderful it felt to hold her against me, she is almost 2 years ols and it was like the first time ever I held her. Awesome feeling.

I have an appointment with Dr Gingrass on the 22 of this month to see about having my twenty nine year old saline implants removed. I'm wondering if you liked the doctor and how you would rate her on your removal.

Drains came out today!

I had my drains taken out today, so happy, those things are sooooo uncomfortable, as soon as my doctor looks at me in about 7 days after I heal up, I will post some new photos, I will say the boobs still look acceptable to me, like the pics above, just a little saggy but not horrible. I feel like they are just a lttle smaller now that the drained implant came out a couple of days ago but I am so happy with my decision to have those things out of my body.

I feel so much better today, not much soreness and about to take a shower, I was told it's ok to do with 24 hrs of the explant, I have drains so this will be a challenge. I am more happy than I have been in years of dragging these obnoxious uncomfotable hooters around, I always felt embarrased by the matronly size and they made me look so heavy, I am 48 and feel like I am 21 now! Good riddance saline implants!
