I has a TT last year. Love my results. I have decided to get BA and brachioplasty to complete my transformation. I has my surgery November 18th. Pain is not too bad. It almost feels like if I did a bunch of weight lifting. Arms don't hurt just the chest area. My implants are under the muscle.
I've been taking my pain meds as prescribed. I took off a week from work. I took a peek at my breasts yesterday as I took my first shower. They look big, swollen I'm sure. My PS and I chose 339 ccs moderate profile. Can't wait to see my results once they drop and settle.

Thanks for sharing the extra details! How are your scars feeling?

Not too bad. I'm still taking my muscle relaxer and half of pain pill. I'm wearing an arm/breast garment as instructed. I heal quickly so I'm starting to get itchy. Still have the sterile strips and will keep them as long as possible just like I did with my TT so it heals nice and thin

Awesome! I'm sure the itching is a good sign :) Please let us know how they look once you're ready to remove the steri strips.

You're gonna love your final results! You worked so hard and deserve to feel confident and good about your final results!
I only lost about 55-60lbs and I know about the loose skin and sagginess and deflated boobies. So I support you 1000%! Losing twice as much as I did must have really taken a toll too. So, you go girl. Every day is easier. You know that from your tt already though. Keep posting updates please! I would love to see 1 month and 6 weeks and 8 weeks or so post op results. You should document everything (at least weekly for yourself privately...or on here if you wish) and I swear sometimes you'll see changes in pics you can't even notice in person! It helps encourage you in recovery....or it did for me. I still take pics 1 or 2 times a week. It really is cool to look back and see all my progress since day 1!
Be well and blessed in your recovery!

Awww thanks lady! I really appreciate it :-)
Losing 50 lbs is a great accomplishment also! But yes losing double that really made an impact on my body. Especially my tummy, arms and breats. I'll post some pics tomorrow. I'm one week post op today.
Thank you so much! And same to you! :-)

Whats your height,weight and bwd?
November 24, 2016
Hi :-)
I'm 5'5" 145 lbs. Not sure about my bwd... my surgeon tried 2 sizers 300 ccs which did not covered my breast enough to give me cleavage and 339 ccs we decused that one was perfect as I did not get implants to get big breasts, I just wanted to restore the volume I lost when I lost the weight without interfering with my gym life. So far I'm happy, they look a bit bigger than I wanted now bit I'm sure there is swelling still happy tough. I hope this helps :-) happy thanksgiving!
November 25, 2016
Thankyou for your update...your breasts aleady look great...Please keep us updated as I am also interested in moderate profile and same cc's. Can I ask..did you consider 'tear drop"? I did..but now thinking what you have. CONGRATS on your body transformation!
November 26, 2016
Hi :-)
No, I didn't considered the tear drop. My surgeon suggested the round implant and explained why it would be a good choice and I trust her so I didn't look into the tear drop. Thanks lady it has been a long journey but no regrets! I'll post some 8 day post op tomorrow and will keep updating for sure :-)

Sorry I haven't replied until now... I had a family emergency and I haven't had the time to go online much.
Yes! It feels great to have boobs :-)
