Did u feel ur pecs move when u had the implants in? Does you feel it less now or more?
never had that experience. Now just feel normal and wonderfully lite
Yes, I did feel them move when I had the implants in, but the feeling was different. When I flexed I could see the muscle separation too, it looked really weird. I think now that I have the implants out, I can notice the muscle a little more i think, but only because I think its trying to heal. You cant see any separation anymore. Im sure in a few weeks that feeling will go away. I was reading you review and all I can say is go with your gut. When i first got my implants in they looked perfectly symmetrical, NOT like they did when I finally decided to get them out. After a few years because of the weight, they begin to shift and droop. I had hated mine from the beginning. I asked for a big C small D and I came out an F... I would have explanted sooner If i knew it was an option.....
Glad your doing great!
Looking good!!! Happy belated one month! Lol. Glad you're feeling better!
You look fabulous! Sooo much breast tissue... lucky bum!!! lol happy 1 month! My 1 month was on the 22 =) I'm more excited about being implant free then smoke free!!!
Glad to hear your doing well and happy!! Im just about 1 month and other than the shedding we seem to be in sync!! Happy Healing :) God Bless

1 month of being implant free

I didn't realize it was already a month since my surgery. Im feeling great! I get sore pains every now and then. I am able to go for walks, not to brisk though because I'll end up sore the next day. I cant want to go running again. I am now able to sleep and my sides and stomach without issues. I still fell pain if i pull on something with resistance or if I push something to heavy. I can definitely feel my pecs move. It is such a weird feeling. My boobs have been shedding like crazy the last two weeks. I wonder if its my body getting rid of extra skin or something, hopefully. Anyway, still happy with my decision to explant. Happy healing ladies!

I woke up on my stomach today!

So this morning I wake up and I'm realizing something is way different. I move my face to glance around and it's in the pillow. I suddenly realize... Holy ish...I'm sleeping in my stomach!!! I very quickly freak out and flip over and inspect my boobs. Everything is fine! My husband is already awake for work so I run to him and scream "I slept on my stomach! I slept on my stomach!" This may not be surprising to most of you, but I haven't slept on my stomach in years!!!!!! Thank Goodness for being implant free!
