So I've been reading posts/reviews/questions on here for weeks. I'm 35, have always been small, but after 2 kids, extended breastfeeding and working out a lot, my boobs were looking pretty sad. Anyway, I'm sitting at home recovering from my surgery (had yesterday May 31)....and wanted to share my early results. I'm still in a bit of pain. Percocet not lasting more than 3-4 hrs so I've been taking regularly, making me sleepy... I ended up getting 375cc mentor smooth, round, hp, under the muscle.. I feel like they are smaller and further apart than I was expecting, but it's just day 2.

Thank you... Feeling super bloated today! :(. Hope it's just swelling... Everywhere! Lol

Hi, what were your stats preop? Your body looks similar to mine and I'm going in for my surgery on Monday. I've decided on 375 cc hp as well but second guessing myself, afraid they won't be big enough...... How do you feel about the size? I have an athletic body as well.

I'm 5'4" 122 lbs... Today they feel huge so I may be wrong person to ask. Actually miss my little ones a bit! I'm not used to taking it easy and I'm anxious to be feeling/looking better. I definitely would hate to be any bigger right now but maybe I'll change my mind as they settle. Good luck to you!

Oh and in 5'4, 122 lbs

They look really nice and proportional with your frame. I'm one week post-op. Doing much better and every day there is improvement. Mine are still sore and hard but that's to be expected. I recommend taking a laxative every day. I took my Percocet every 4 hours for a week and used stool softener, drank plenty of water and ate fruit. Still no BM on day 7 :( and I'm going to try a laxative later today. Good luck with your recovery! Just rest for the first few days. Those are the worst. But I was able to shower myself on Day 5 and be much more mobile since then.

Sounds just like me... I'm usually very regular so this bothers me a lot! Lol... But I haven't been able to eat much at all either

Yesterday I had a bit of a meltdown and cried a bit... Was over "recovery" and missed my littles. I feel a lot better today, as I feel a lot of the swelling has gone down. I don't feel as wide. I even started wondering if too small! Lol I'm crazy. Drive for first time today so I got out, got my lashes done, feel a little more human.

Hang in there lady! It gets easier. I sent you a message...sorry I don't check my inbox often. Your looking awesome! Just remember lots of rest. Rent movies and try to keep your mind off of things.

You look great! I think they are a perfect size for your frame. You don't want big huge boobs, take it from me I have big ( real) boobs. It is hard to find clothing that fit etc.

My boobs are finally starting to feel a little more like ME. I'm feeling puffy and really wanting to work out but I know I need to wait. I haven't been eating great and coupled w no exercise (im usually in gym 6-7 days week!). I'm feeling very fluffy lol.. Sensation seems to slowly be coming back, every day soreness is a bit less. My new fears now are the fear of complications (bc I'm crazy and stress over everything). I'm terrified of them bottoming out, double bubble and cc. I'm really really hoping things continue to go smoothly... I love reading everyone's updates. I think it's become a bit of an obsession lol.

Good to hear your recovery is going well! I am with you on the working out. I usually walk/run 5 miles a day and workout at home 6-7 days a week and I am dying to get back at it!

They look great and perfect size for you. You still look amazing! I already needed to lose weight and now I feel like a cow not being able to work out! I'm two weeks post-op, so at least going to start walking next week. Can't even do yoga to relieve back pain! I hate having to be inactive. :(
June 10, 2016
I think I'll start walking tomorrow. Dr gave the ok as long as it's not power walking lol. I

I too am in the gym about 6 days a week and am so worried about losing motivation and having no to work twice as hard to get back my gains after surgery. Not entirely sure how long I'll be out with both a BA and a TT planned. Looking forward to following your recovery. You look awesome already. Only going to get better as they drop. :)
