Not so quick

Sorry my quick update ran very long. Lol

Almost 5 weeks pics & update

It's a couple days shy of 5 weeks so I thought I'd do a quick update. I'm feeling great :) My Mondors Cords are pretty much gone thankfully because those sucked. I get a pain from one in my left randomly but massaging it helps and I did use warm compresses on them which seemed to help. The super sensitive nipples are back to normal and the really tense muscle spasm are very rare. I just get the spams when I outstretch my arms & lift or do anything slightly strenuous, even wiping the counter does still cause them to tense up. Good news though I started running again! The first time last week I only did 3 miles run/walk & it felt very weird. My muscles tightened so bad but I ran through it & was ok. I did a 4.5 mile run today & felt great, only my legs hurt from not exercising in so long. I ran with my VIctoria Secrets VX bras doubled up (at the suggestion of Lawiant) that was perfect. Then latr today I went to sports authority to try other sports bras...Adidas now makes a double up sports bra. Lol. It was not comfortable at all though. The Victorias Secret VX is my new favorite sports bra & they were on sale! So I registered for my first post op road race on January 19th! And am still planning on my first half marathon this spring just as planned :) happy healing to everyone & happy new year!!!!

Went bra shopping today!

My BF gave me a VS gift card the day of my surgery & I finally got to use it today :) I tried on about 100 different bras. Lol. Here are some pics. I took pics & txt my BF while he was on his way home...he txt back "you cannot send those while I am driving!!! Lol"

I met with 3 differant PS's and Dr. Engel took the most time to explain the procedure and honestly tell me what my results would be. Also took measurements and went over differant profiles etc. He didn't rush me out of the office like one of the PS's I saw did. He made me feel like I could spend as much time as needed to talk with him. After having my pre op with Dr Engel I am even more confident I chose well. He is easy to talk to and really takes the time to explain realistically what the outcome will be and my differant options. After just about 3 weeks I am so pleased with the results! I had issues with my left breast being larger and lower and he explained how he tried different techniques and sizes during the surgery to get them just right. I was really impressed that he took the extra time and attention to get results that I'd be happy with. The post op appointments went great so far, he has a great sense of humor and really makes you feel comfortable while answering all your questions and not making you feel rushed out of his office. In addition to that they have a wonderful nurses staff!
