Five years later
I am still very happy to have six pounds of breasts gone from my body. The procedure really did change my life. I have noticed some things five-years post-surgery. I am very uncomfortable wearing wired bras, and there are still skin "flaps" on the sides of my torso that never have disappeared. They don't hurt or anything, but I had hoped they wouldn't remain so pronounced.
Six weeks is the magic number alright
Today is officially six weeks from my surgery. I spend more time NOT noticing my boobs than feeling twinges or discomfort. When they do act up, I have to tell myself, oh yeah, you had SIX POUNDS removed. Of course they are going to take a bit to get back to "normal."
The stitches are all out, the scars are healing well. I had a hole where a big wad of stitches were, but it is covered up and healing well.
My last follow up appointment was last Friday and she said I was cleared to start regular exercising. And then I got the bronchitis. Ain't nobody got time for that. So I haven't been able to breathe well enough to test out the ladies.
I have switched to sleeping in a breast binder, which is way more comfy to sleep in. Now that I'm feeling better, I'm ready to go try on bras to find some good ones!

Four weeks today
It's hard to believe it's been four weeks since my surgery, especially as quickly as everything has healed. The stitches are starting to fall off and the little bits of pink, new skin are peeping through. The side stitches looked almost normal this morning when I got up and got clean.
I finally got a new compression-ish bra from the Marena brand, so not as supportive, but it was time to move on. The booblets still feel sore and achy in a weird way, but I'm starting to wake up from sleeping on my side again (yay!) and my stamina is coming back.
I'm still really wary of doing too much; that first full week back at work was too much and I paid for it over the weekend. I am now letting myself sleep in and not rushing to run errands after work anymore. I think that has contributed to feeling better this week.
Anyhoo, I have my next follow-up appointment next week and we'll see what Dr. A has to say.

She's great so far. Very direct and realistic. The office staff have been great to talk to and very helpful in navigating all the paperwork involved in submitting to the insurance company. So far, so good!
