One week (almost) update

It's almost a week and my breasts look pretty much as I remember them. Only now I love them! Absolutely no regrets about taking the implants out. I have been a little emotional the last few days about all that I unnecessarily put my body through but I'm happy that it's over. I'm still sore but healing every day :-)

Day 2
The Dr showed me the capsules and everything she removed. The right breast (which was in a lot of pain) had double the scar tissue. I had a revision in that breast less than 6 months after implantation due to the mistake of the surgeon creating the pocket a bit low. I was lopsided.
The Dr also removed 5 permanent sutures my first surgeon had put in to hold my implant up. I also had scar tissue stuck to the muscle and to my ribs. All of those were contributing to the chronic pain. My incisions are quite large and currently one breast looks smaller.
I am sore from the procedure but my mind is at peace. I'm reading one of Dr. Wayne Dyer's books. I want to forgive myself for putting my body through this, for not thinking I was good enough, for not sticking up for myself, for not trusting my instincts, and for not loving my natural self.
Ladies, why are we so hard on ourselves???

There are many reasons why we are so hard on ourselves and of course it may be a little different for each of us. But you are on the right path now, on a journey of self acceptance and love. Sometimes it takes an illness to to see what is truly important in life. Wishing you inner peace and a speedy recovery.

Well said; I agree with you totally. For me, it was growing up with that damn Barbie Doll image!

I will be brave and post photos to show progress. This week my body will be focusing on healing and my mind will be focusing on forgiveness. They look a little sad at this point but I feel wonderful. Thank you all for your support.
