I wish I could take better pictures so you can see how they really look! Lots of upper pole fullness still but that's ok. The longer they take to drop maybe they longer they stay up over the years! So cool to be the same exact size I was before.

Well, it's more like 3.5 weeks but I couldn't get in last week. Dr. Mobley and his nurse couldn't believe my steri strips stayed on that long! One on each side was starting to peel off but the incision sites were still covered. So I saw them today for the first time in their full glory. Dr. Mobley said they were healing well and the scars look great. They gave me a sample of scar gel and I bought a tube of it for $45, use twice a day. I used some when I got home and it felt really weird to touch them. I really have barely touched by boobs at all since the surgery. They're a little scary looking with the areolas being funky looking but I know they'll get better. He said no massaging yet (he said we'll talk about that in 2 months), keep wearing bras, I can go back to the gym as long as it feels ok, and I can sleep however I want. I know every doctor has different opinions on all of the above but I trust mine and will listen to everything he says! I'll have to fly back into town for my 2 month appt. since we're moving in a month, kind of a pain but I knew that was the deal when I scheduled the surgery. Now to deal with finishing my last Masters class before graduation and moving to a new state and starting a new job! Unfortunately moving and writing papers will overlap a bit :(.

well the scars are a little scary but that's ok, they'll get better! I get creeped out rubbing the incision areas with scar gel, haha! I know you said you put gauze between your scars and your bra, think that's helping? You and I have different scars but I'm wondering if that will make a difference and help mine...I've been doing it, it sure can't hurt I guess!

Girl you look amazing!!! I know how you feel, I don't like my stomach either, but trust me.... NO one will be looking at your stomach!! (wink wink) I think Xbubblesbx is right, after you are able to start moving around you will feel better and love your results and any bikini you put on will look GREAT! just hang in there. (I have not seen my stitches yet either will be 3 wks Thursday!)

Thank you, honey, I appreciate it. I honestly think that picture was a horrible angle and maybe it looks better in real life? Maybe not. I love my boobs though! I just saw them for the first time on Monday, a little scary and I haven't let my husband see yet. Thank goodness I knew from everyone's RS posts that they looked normal. They've already started looking a tiny bit better since Monday using the scar treatment gel. I'm not saying it's bc of the gel, I think it's more like the dark scabs are coming off making them look a lot lighter. I'm gonna pop over and read your review :)

I'm praying you become more comfortable with urself bc you truly are beautiful no matter how you view urself and ur boobs and tummy look great. Get ur butt to the gym when you have time and I promise you'll start to feel better, and I have faith you will get all ur work finished too, I believe in you my friend:*}

Thanks, sweetie...I went to crossfit on Monday night after my PS visit...I'm sore! Did mostly all legs. Everyone was hapy to see me, said my boobs look amazing, and I looked skinnier. I think it was bc I was wearing a tank top which I NEVER did before bc they were not cute with my big power sports bras!

June 18, 2014
Good for you!! So ... Did it make you feel better? And yay for the tank tops , maybe you shlda just been trying cute tops on, you clda been cheered up a long time ago;•}
R
June 18, 2014
I couldn't wear the cute tops bc my boobs were too big and saggy! Now they're big and firm! It felt good to be back, kinda sucked not to be able to do everything everyone else did but oh well. I avoided anything that involved lots of upper body and anything that bounced em! They def rocked up afterward and my legs are so damn sore...

I think you look absolutely fantastic!! We are our own biggest critic. I beat myself up all the time about this and that but really you do look great.

thank you so much, that's so nice of you to say. I'm still secretly hoping I'm still bloated and swollen 2.5 weeks out...(but I don't think so!)

thanks, love...feels like I'll never be able to get back in the gym and have normal arm strength again! It just sucks that my boobs look awesome and my stomach is freakin horrendous. I gotta get after it as soon as I'm cleared...

You are def being hard on urself. I think everything like staying in and not being ur normal self is getting to you. Your arm strength will come back full swing don't worry. It just takes a few weeks;•} give urself some time bae.

Thank you, I guess boobie blues get me every once in a while. I swear my stomach is still bloated and swollen. Today is the 3 week mark, lookin forward to getting back to crossfit. Xoxo

I hear you, the longer you sit around you feel like ugh, but I promise, I've been in my routine for just over two weeks now and I feel good, once you start working out again the first week will be tough, but by the end of the week you will feel great. Just hang in there and don't give up. Think rocky feeling accomplished , remember after he ran up all those stairs. You'll get there, xoxo ;•}

Oh yah that's me, Rocky! I can't believe all your push ups, by the way! Can't wait to do push ups again...do you do boy push ups?
X
June 13, 2014
Yea but in a way I cheat bc I don't do them all at once. I do twelve push-ups then I have 1 1/2 lb wrist weights and I keep my arms up boxing for five min, then twelve more , and with the weights for five more min I twist and extend my arm back and straitening it up to work out the backs of my arms. It really stops them from jiggling. Then twelve more push-ups . So every time I switch the exercise or workout routine I do twelve push-ups . Yesterday I added twelve more to then end of the whole routine so I did 60. I also have a 1' high block and I put ankle weights on set the timer for thirty min and watch my shows while I step. It works ur butt and legs amazingly. I've always done the boy pushups . I was always pretty much on the athletic side so I want the most I can get out of the workout;•}

Looking great..I feel the same way about my tummy .once we can get back at to ourself .it will be better .:)

June 13, 2014
I hope you're right because this is miserable! Uggh, maybe a really long walk tomorrow will make me feel better. My weight is the same now, I just feel SO much bigger in the tummy. It doesn't feel like I've been out of crossfit for 3 weeks in some ways but in some ways it sure does feel that way!

You are looking soooo great girl!!! I am getting a little lipo on the armpits too and i'm more scared of that than anything haha.
R
June 13, 2014
Thanks for the compliment :). I'm enjoying them, it's so funny bc I'm the exact same size I was before, they just look so much better! Don't be scared of the lipo, it's just weird feeling. I've seen on here that people's underarms feel sensitive after BA's alone so I don't know which it's from...

June 13, 2014
RodeoWife is right! I had a LOT of areas lipoed and was SHOCKED at how easy recovery was. I was militant about pain pills though and I stayed on them a full 10 days, until I was certain that there wouldn't be any major pain left to creep up . There's discomfort and weird feeling like RodeoWife said. NO reason to fear or worry I promise you!
