Hi everyone,
Sorry it's been a while! Life's been pretty mental, I'm sure all of you who have been through it before know what it's like trying to get back to normal again.
It's been nearly 7 weeks since surgery and I confidently say I'm feeling like myself again. Physically I can do all the normal daily things, exercise I still have to be careful, but otherwise the rest of the time I don't feel like I every had surgery. Speaking of exercise I just started a blog to track my progress back to fitness, danabananas.wordpress.com - feel free to check it out if you're interested! I've done 2 full workouts recently and it felt fantastic, still have to take it easy on the jumping and running, I also tried a push up on my knees the other day, didn't feel weird but I don't want to over do it... But I don't think it will be long before I back to the level of fitness I had before surgery.
So, the boobs. They are FINALLY starting to look the way I wanted them to look. They have rounded out a lot more and as they continue to drop I'm noticing my nipple is get higher and higher, no more boobies pointing at the ground, thank god! I would say they are fairly soft, definitely a lot better since surgery, but still quite firm and I can feel the edge of the implant when I play with them. I think the feeling is coming back in the right nipple, I get little zaps of pain in it every now and then, and when I touch it I can feel some kind of pressure, it's not painful but it feels weird. I hope this means it on its way back to full sensation!
Umm what else? Still in the surgery bra, a week and a bit to go and I'm free! I'll probably still wear it to bed for a little while longer tho. Oh yeah! Guess what, I can sleep on my stomach again! Absolute bliss the first time I did it!! I just found I had to get used to feeling the implants under me then I was fine :)
The scars are getting there, they feel really smooth now but are still quite red so I think I need to go and get something to start fading them.
Anyway, ill take some pics and upload them when I get a chance, hope you are all well :)

4 Weeks PO yesterday.. 'Gym Workout'
AthleticAugust 29, 2013
So last night was my first time back in the Gym. I didn't really do much but it was nice to get a sweat up for the first time in over a month! I did 20 minutes interval on the bike, 50 squats with 1kg hand weights, and 40 bicep curls with 2kg hand weights. That's not even a warm up compared to my normal workouts but by the end of it I was starting to feel pretty tight so that's all I did. I feel fine this morning, no soreness or tightness! :)
I thinking about attempting an altered version of one of the insanity workouts this weekend, I'll let you know how it goes!

you look great! it's nice to hear how others are feeling about working out at the gym.

Thanks hun. God it's a bit of a shock realising I can't do anything near what I used to! Patience I guess.. I love hearing how other girls go at the gym too, gives me something to aim for and compare myself against..

You are looking amazing, how are you feeling? Love your snap with your pup!!

Thank you, you look fantastic too! I'm still up and down, some days are great, some not so much, both physically and mentally. I think I'm really missing the gym, I'm 4 weeks PO tomorrow so I think it's time to get back into it! (slowly) lol. How are you doing?..

Hey great to hear you are back at the gym, you always feel heaps better after a workout or just really any exercise, did it feel weird going back? Like with stretching with your implants......I am still having trouble getting dressed just with stretching your arms up putting on tops, things like that. Are you sleeping better now, I am sleeping just on one pillow on my back but still find it uncomfortable to sleep on my side...

it was a bit weird because my usual boxercise class was on at the same time and I couldn't join in! I was mainly on the bike so I didn't notice any stress on my chest at all, just tightened a little with the bicep curls. I'm more sore now after going clothes shopping for an hour or so today! I'm like you still finding it a bit hard pulling shirts over my head.. I'm sleeping on my side comfortably now :) It's like you have to make your self do it a couple of times and then your body gets use to it and it doesn't seem weird or uncomfortable anymore...
