WORTH IT$5,700
And doing great! I had a follow up with my dr last Tuesday and he is very happy with my results. I do have some tethering in the right breast but I'm massaging daily to hopefully take care of that. He cleared me for exercising - yea!, with the understanding that if it hurts or pulls, don't do it. So I've been doing a hour on the treadmill every day and today, I did some arm work and it felt great! I'm still too tender from the abdominal lipo to do any work in that area so I'll just concentrate on my arms for a while. They need work anyway, lol! I feel absolutely wonderful and have zero pain for the first time in years. That is such a blessing and I'm still shocked! Chronic pain can ruin your life and I had lived with it for so long that I didn't realize just how much it was bringing me down. I'm normally a very happy upbeat person so I feel like I've got my joy back. I've attached a picture so you can see my progress but really isn't that much different from the last one I posted. Next weekend, I'm going to a lingerie shop to get a bra fitting and buy some sexy push-up bras! I'm curious what size they will measure me at and will let everyone know. Take care, my lovely breast friends! Thanks to all of you for your continued support and healing thoughts and prayers - they have worked! Xoxo

Hey LongTall--I was told to let my body determine it. So, I started sleeping on my side pretty quickly, maybe after a few days. If it hurts, don't do it. :-)

Sorry i meant long tall on the other post lol I get both of you confused.. Lot of big boobed Texans out there huh?!! Anyway wanted to let you know even though it's been four weeks for me. it's taken a toll on my body..I still tire more easily and feel it's still important to get plenty of rest. ..so i don't envy you going back to work..go easy tomorrow and good luck:) [RS bleep]

Lol, Lightagain! We Texans love our big boobs (well, we used to anyway) and our big hair! I may start out on my side tonight to see how it feels. I have to sleep in my compression garment for the lipo so I don't know how comfortable that will be. I'm a little anxious about work tomorrow. I haven't napped during the day in several days so I don't think tiredness will be an issue. My job is stressful mentally, but not physically. I also am in my office at an insanely early hour (6:15 usually) so I'm not looking forward to getting up at 4:45 again! 8:00 is so much more civilized ;)
I'll let everyone know how is goes tomorrow. Xoxo

I agree so much with that light again~ 5 weeks out, and even though so many things are better, I too, tire easy and it seems to have taken alittle toll on my body! Rest is needed bigtime yet, and sometimes, Ive negated that fact and paid dearly! Pamper, rest and heal when not at work though! :) You all deserve that! WE have been through alot with this! aka lil Hoots

Been a busy weekend running errands and getting ready to go to work tomorrow :(. Breasts look better and better every day! Now I have a question for the explant pros. How long am I supposed to sleep on my back? The post op instructions just say "several weeks". I'm normally a side sleeper and this back sleeping is killing my lower back! Any suggestions?
Other than the lower back, I feel great! I literally have no pain or discomfort from my breast at all. The lipo'd areas are still sore and the compression garment is no fun but it looks really good! Once the bruises heal, I'll post a picture or two of that as well.
Have a great week, my breast buddies! Xoxo
