The more I do the bigger I bloat! HELP! I am 11 days post op now... I drink H20 all day and seriously go to bed looking very pregnant, lol! Ugh! I do wake up very flat :) .. So I guess the more I just chil and stay off my feet will minimize the bloat?! I fear I will get fat w/lack of excersize! Waaaa.... I already need to lose a good 15lbs!
however am still thrilled with my new bod. Just hate this bloat! Bleh! AND I get my 2nd drain out today! Oh man I can not wait! Anyone else having major bloat?

Yay for no drains! Yeah - the bloat is really a losing battle LOL! I get it too! Yesterday was particularly bad because not only was I out from 830am-2pm....my eating was not that great - not horrible but I ate out and it wasn't salad. =) Hang in there! I feel ya with this annoying bloat! I also still feel like I'm fighting the tightness or the pullining of my belly - especially by the end of the day! Oh and my monthly friend is on her way in too - lovely week but I'll survive! LOL! You're looking really good though!

Hi and congrats on the new you!! Did you have a breast lift along with the augment? :)
August 15, 2012
Hi Mom3.. Thank you so much! Am thrilled with my results SO FAR and I am only 2 weeks post op. :) Yes, I did get a lift with my Aug. I chose saline over silicone. And went with 400 in size. The pics I posted I was still pretty hunched over some. I need to do some updated pics soon. :)

Hey there ladies! Well my appt yesterday went good! One drain came out (thank god)!! The other will come out tomorrow or fri. :) I got to finally take a shower this morn. It felt amaaazing!! LOL! Super happy with my tummy and stitches look nice (as nice as they can look) seem low, which am happy about. BUT not digging this bloat look.. and I have like a shelf (as i've heard it called) I guess it's where my bloat starts. However.. besides that, which I understand the bloat eventually goes a way... I am so happy! My breast look great! WOW! Scar underneath you can't even see. PS happy about results. So am I! I'll have to take some pics. Will wait until other drain comes out. :) How are you all doing? Have to add... as time goes by I am nodding my head to HEY'LL yea this has all been worth it!! The first few days/week is so hard. Mostly discomfort and pain. (stay on top of your meds) Am glad I planned ahead, did shopping, set stuff I would need on my night stand. Arrange for care. Between my Hubby, oldest daughter, my sister, BFF, and a wonderful neighbor the firat week went very well. Happy to move on to week 2!! :)

One drain out....moving on :) I too have that "shelf" and its frustrating! I thought I guess, that my body would look perfect, Im trying to remind myself that I DO look better. I guess our minds do a trick yes? And the scar looking good? As good as a scar can look is right! Mine still shows disolving sutures w/ mesh...YUCK! Ill post later, it reminds me of frankenstein. My showers are every other day, but the first made me feel human again. I cant wait to feel comfortable enough to take a candle lite bubble bath :) Hers to the next drain coming out!

Yay!!!! I am so excited for you and can't wait to see pics! I am so jealous of everyones boobs! LOL! I am a week out today and feel so so great - pretty much as normal as I can expect to feel - doing things around the house (very light things) yet needing a nap mid morning daily. =) I am pounding SERIOUS water - over a gallon a day and that's helping me with the swell. GL with the next drain coming out! Hope it's super soon! YAY!!!! Oh and yay for the shower!!! =)
Glad your last drain came out! That's awesome!
