325/350cc moderate plus profile gummy bear implants placed submuscular- Kelowna, BC

I spent over an hour doing my first post and the system erased it, really hoping this one works...

I've been struggling with the idea that if I go ahead with BA surgery somehow I'm not as spiritual or confident as I thought I was. I have many friends who have had it done and have never judged them...just admired how they looked...but when it came time to decide if I was going to do it, the self-criticism started. I'm happy to report that with two weeks left before my surgery date, I'm at a place where I feel like its spiritually and emotionally okay to do this. I feel powerful in owning this journey and am super excited about the enjoying the results! Thanks again to all you women who have shared your journey with me. My turn...

I recently left a draining LONG-term relationship and have pt others before myself since I was 15 years old. This is surgery is a gift to myself...like I'm finally choosing to put myself first and it feels fantastic. I actually have more to give others now that I'm giving more to myself!

I've decided to let my PS decide size at the time of surgery since so many of the pictures I see with same size implants look completely different person to person. I have given him a range and am going to bring in my wish list when I see him before surgery. I feel so blessed to have a surgeon that I am absolutely confident in! He has recommended silicone gummy bear implants with a moderate plus profile which will help give me the natural look I am going for.

I have started taking vit-c, and lypo-spheric gsh. Both of which are really important for healing and getting the general anesthetic out of the system after. I've also started listening to a recording that helps to prep and heal from surgery. It's a guided relaxation and visualization and i found it really powerful. I have a sense of deep peace about the procedure and the healing...and yes, I am also sooo excited to have it done! But not anxious or nervous...her website is healfaster.com

I'm laminating a healing affirmation for the anesthesiologist to read to me during surgery...laminating it allows them to disinfect it for the OR room. It will read something like....I am at peace with my decision to have breast augmentation surgery. I radiate inner and outer beauty. My body is strong and I heal from this surgery easily and quickly. I love my new look. All is well.... I've read that we are really open to suggestions when our brains are at the level of general anesthesia. Since I think we create our reality with our thoughts so it seems like a good time to use the power of my mind ;)

I have 2 products that I'll use after the surgery to minimize any scaring. They are Master Formula's Green Ointment and Essential Silver Antibiotic Gel...they are pretty much the only topical things I have in my first aid repertoire...such good products ;) any other suggestions?

Here are a few things that I have found life changing during my recovery period. Highly recommend them all...they've made my healing so much faster and more comfortable!
45 degree wedge pillow-I'm not one for sleeping on my back in one spot all night. This pillow, along with another one under my head, has made sleeping and reading so much easier. I also throw a sheep skin over top to help relieve pressure points from being in one spot for so long.

Massage balls- The sock has two tennis balls in it and the other once is like a cheap kids blow up ball you can get at dollar stores. I'm not used to so little movement and it was taking it's toll on other parts of my body. These have been great to place under my back to help massage out knots and relieve pressure.

Massage Chair- OMG...that's all I've got to say about this one! Heaven for a sore back. I'm gong to really have to work on strengthening the muscles of my upper back and stretch out my chest in a few weeks!! This is helping me get by for now...

Medjool Dates- I've heard pooping is a big issue for some after surgery. I have't had that problem. I've been eating 2 dates every day and my digestion seems better than prior to surgery :)

Bio-K- A great probiotic to balance out the gut and flora after pain meds and antibiotics. I opted out of the oral antibiotics after surgery (with the ok from my PS) but was given a dose during surgery. I haven't had any issues I would normally experience with taking meds or antibiotics. Usually I am really sensitive to these sorts of things but all good.

Vit-C and GSH- both of these supplements are vital for tissue repair and are BIG in anti-oxidants. I started taking them about 3 days after surgery as I didn't want to overload my system to early on...I started to feel the effects right away. I finally felt like my head was more clear and I was stronger...

Hope this helps some of you!
