My 2 year anniversary!!!
WORTH IT
Hi Everyone :)
Got an email from Kimmers that reminded me that today is 2 years since I took that life changing step to relief. I want to take this time to thank everyone for all the well wishes and support you gave me while I was going through the roller coaster of emotions that came with this major change. I can say that even after 2 years I still say this is the best decision I have ever made.
i want to take this time to congratulate all of you that have made the decision to take care of yourselves and do what is best for you. Sometimes we have to make choices that are for ourselves and like they always say" if Momma's not happy, no one's happy".
My life has taken a turn that wish it hadn't. My husband has decided that he would be happier not being married and my daughter and I are still adjusting. My faith and my friends are carrying me through, so we move forward.
Any way, my perky C's settled to being perky D's which is ok by me because it's still along way from where I started,lol. And yes they are still quite perky. My daughters tell me that my nipples love to say "hello" a lot, hahahaha!!! Trying my best to get back to exercising and controlling my weight. Hopefully I will get this together soon, but hey, I have GREAT BOOBS!!!
Hope today brings everyone love and happy hearts. Good luck to those who are waiting, happy healing to those that have had their surgery and whoo hoo!! to everyone enjoying your freedom from back pain, expensive bras and buying the outfit that you "have" to buy and not the one you "want" to buy.
Oh, and Happy Valentine's Day!!!

I've reached the 11 week mark and the compliments...
I've reached the 11 week mark and the compliments keep coming. Got a chance to see my in-laws this weekend, my daughter graduated college , and they kept telling me how incredible I looked. My mother-in-law said she couldn't stop staring at my boobs or as she put it later where my boobs used to be,lol. Anyway I'm having a ball dressing them. I think I've bought a new dress at least once a week.
And to top it all off since I can now exercise for the first in forever I have dropped 9lbs in the past 5 weeks. Feels good!!! Got a few more to go to reach my goal but now that I can work out with out stopping because my breast hurts it won't be long. Seeing the results gives me ammunition to keep going.
Good luck to anyone out there who's one step closer to the best feeling ever and those who have crossed the threshold, it only gets better.
By the way, got a call from the Ambulatory center saying they had a refund for me, so my final cost is going to be even less,WooHoo!!!

Hi guys, I know it's been a long time but I got inspired by Zumba Ariel to update and let everyone know how things were going. My scars are healing up fantastic. I asked the doctor what size I ended being and his response was "perfect" lol. And when I went to buy a bra and the sales person asked me what size I needed I was to tell them a size perfect. I haven't tried on a regular bra yet because the sports bras are so comfortable and since I can't wear under wire for another couple months I'm content with them for a while.
I started back to work today. My scars got a bit sore, but nothing I couldn't handle. I've began to exercise too.Now that the girls are normal size I noticed that it made my belly look more pronounced,lol. Sooo I joined WW online and began an exercise routine. Lost 2 lbs so far since last Tuesday,YAY. Slow and steady.
My husband keeps asking how they look, the distance has brought us closer and we have been communicating alot. I keep telling him their tiny. I think he wants a visual. May give him one if he keeps being a good boy. He's in Afghanistan and I worry about him everyday, but this is my time and I've made it through this on my own with the help of some awesome people.
The scars on the side are darker than the others, but with my therapy, using silicone gel and massage everyday twice a day, they have flattened out quite a bit. Looking good. Got an early day tomorrow, so hitting the shower and bed for me.
Good luck to anyone who has their surgeries coming up!! WELL WORTH IT!

Penny! How are you girls?! Healing well I hope! :)

Hi Ariel, I was just thinking about you! Glad to see everything is going good for you now. I know how you feel about the depression thing. I didn't feel that way about the surgery, just not having my husband around to talk to was my nemesis. Anyway the girls are as Dr. Frost says" perfect" and I'm getting so many compliments from friends that say I glow now,lol. Take care and I will update my post soon.

Hi Penny!! Dr.Frost is doing my BR on April 23,2012 and I must say that you are right about Dr. Frost and his staff they are great! I am so ready for this. I am having a lot of negative thoughts in my head... HELP!!!!!

Hi letitiah, so what are these things in your head. April 23rd is right around the corner !!!! You're in the best of hands . Let me know what your questions are and I'll do the best to answer them. Good luck and your gonna love the end results.

Thanks Penny for hearing me calling out for help. Taking my nipple off is a little scary, I am worried if I will have any feeling left, and is outpatient a good thing?

April 14, 2012
Yes I have full sensation in both nipples. In fact the incisions around the nipple area are so good almost unnoticeable. I noticed sensation the minute I got out of surgery. And the out patient procedure was so much better for me because I was able to be comfortable at home and you can reach someone 24/7 if you have any questions. They even call you to check on you the day you get home.
