Hooray for progress! I have this ghost itch thing going on for about a month and it's driving me nuts. I hope yours stops! Happy for your progress - keep us posted!

Wow! You look terrific! I've been trying to find women whose body type looks like mine to compare what I might look like. When I saw you preop, I swear it could have been me. I have surgery scheduled 11/17. Very excited, but want to be realistic about results and get as informed as I can on recovery. Thank you so much for posting!!!

Thanks! Congrats on your surgery! Def the best thing I have done! Just be ready the first 4 days are hell. I refused to talk. Take your pain meds on a full tummy and im on day 13 & feeling 1000x better. Seeing some gunk in my insicion which I am planning on posting, are u getting lift with implants or without?

My name is Nicole too! Thank you so much for writing back! I'm just getting a lift and a slight reduction. I'm a large DD now so I have plenty of junk to work with. What size did you end up after surgery? I'm thinking of a full C, but I haven't quite decided. Is it too soon to tell due to the swelling if you have shed any pounds? I'm just curious what tissues really weigh. I'm 5'3" and 134 lbs today. You are the first person that I have seen with such recent progress. Thank you for being an inspiration and guide for the newbee!

Well before surgery, i would fit ddd or f. I had very full breast, or so I thought. I went sports bra shopping 10 days post, and I tried a 38 d, and it fits....but kind of loose, I think I will end up a d maybe try a smaller back size. Oh feel free to ask me anything lol im still stuck in this recliner (its just easier for me, I have a two story house). And I'm so badly i helped you out, i searched everywhere to try and find My body shape, but found nothing so i wanted to post my story with My body shape!!My Ps told me a lift already reduces the breast, im glad I going get any smaller....i love my boobs and do does hubby, PS said i may need implants but I don't have loads of money to keep up with touch up maintenance lol. This was one time thing for me. Plus it hurts to much lol.....are you getting a tummy tuck to? I am 5'7 went in @ 165, I weighed myself today 154!!!! Yayyyy!!!!!:-):-);-)

You are too funny!! I'm actually getting a belt lipectomy (lower body lift). I lost about 65 lbs and my son (age 7) was a giant baby 10lbs, so my whole body is a wreck. I thought my thights and butt were full of cellulite, but my Ps said, no it's really skin hanging down. I was going to do a TT, but after talking with him, I'm getting a total overhaul. Yay!! I'm an old lady compared to you, 41, but it's about time I look better!! Is your recliner manual, do you have to push back to get it up or push down with legs to get the foot rest down? Mine is like that and I'm worried I won't be able to operate the chair!!!

My recliner is one that I have to lift the handle to get the feet out, as for me, I couldn't move nor did I want to move, if I had to get up or down my helper did it. They held my feet up ect. At around day 6 I was able to lean over and pull the lever, now I can get up on my own. Wow sounds like you're getting a full body deal! That's great! A ten pounder... You poor poor women lol ;-) I had 2 kids both small 5 pounds, but i was one of them women that just had to eat everything in my path. My first pregnancy I gained 80 lbs! And only 5 pounds of that was baby!! My second guy I gained 50 lbs, and I thought I ate healthy. Anywho as you can see my body type is what I like to call a tire, every darn thing goes right to the hips and creates a tire shape. So an extended tummy tuck was needed which helped my butt and thighs to. You Will look wonderful I'm sure! You excited? ?

It and impossible to not do a lift, but they just seen very low on my chest
September 28, 2014
Let's just stay hopeful,it's only been a couple days. Have you spoke to your ps about this?
September 29, 2014
I did, he said I might need implants, I was a F before lift now a D is small on me. He said I had enough tissue to keep the same size. I now its only been 11 days x but they can't move higher up on my chest Ya know. ...Didn't want implants because I have always been proud of saying yes....their mine lol. But do you see my picture, they look low......
September 29, 2014
Just read this sorry for delay.
I do see they are a slight low but is this due to the dropping of implant?
September 29, 2014
sorry read that&no lipo but they look pretty good,so I assumed&forgot. my bad
September 27, 2014
I am thinking of doing a lift and tummy tuck. I have three kids 3,5,&7. Why did you decide not to get the implants?
September 28, 2014
I Didn't think I would need implants, I was a 36 f before.... kind of wish I had more. .. I'm going in a 36 d and I'm still swollen. ...
