I'm still here! 10 month update.
WORTH IT$5,201
It's been many months since I've posted anything. As you know I've had a very hard recovery. I still don't feel 100%. I have a hard time sleeping and trying to find a comfortable spot. I still sleep on my back elelvated most of the time. Sometimes I will sleep my side with a stuffed animal between the girls for support. I still can't do push-ups or crunches. And there are days they frustrate me.
Ok- some good news. I'm running which is the most important thing. I'm finally wearing a bra every day without being uncomfortable. I love wearing VS bras. They make me feel sexy. I'm LOVING the VS swimsuits. I took full advantage of the semi annual sale. Ha! And they sure are pretty. I admire them in the mirror a lot. :) my husband is pretty fond of them too.
I'm happy with the size. I ended up being a 32D. I was barely a 32A before. So glad I didn't go bigger. I'm posting a few updated pics.

I wanted to check and see how your running is going. I am also a runner and am having surgery on the 15th. Are you back to normal running no problems. I also chose Dr. Riegers. Excited and nervous

Hmmm.....have you?
Hi ladies! Hope you're all doing well. I have a quick question. Has anyone ever tried these adhesive bras? I got them about a month ago and haven't tried them. To be honest, they look painful, so I'm a little scared to try...ha! But before I take it back I was wondering if anyone has given them a try. I am also wondering if they are going to fit. I got them in a C before I got re-measured to a D. even though my sister size to 32D is 34C. anyways, just curious.
Happy Healing! XOXO

I have tried that and I liked it. I wore a backless less when I was 3 weeks post op and used those bra. They stayed on the whole evening I was out. I had a Diffrent brand though but I guess they suppose to work the same. I do like them better then the nipples sticker ( whatever you call lol). I have a B cup. I don't think it's matter , basically you try to cover your nipples.

Awesome...Thank You so much....I can see where they'd come in very handy. especially in the summer time.

I used those pre and post op. In fact i used my A cup ones post op. They didnt cover my full breasts but it worked perfectly fine still even though I am now a full c small d. Anyways I love them. They really come in handy when going braless. Also they can be used to make ultra cleavage!!!! They have yet to ever fall off on me ever even though I've gone out and danced all night in them. Totally recommend. I meant to buy ones in my new size but they didnt have it in my size when I looked. I will be on the look out though!!

Photo Fun
Happy New Years! I hope everyone is doing well and had a fun and safe New Year's. I made this collage to look at the difference the past 9 weeks. I'm actually amazed at how much they've changed. It's hard to tell on a day to day basis. I think they're going to remain where they are now.
I went to my doctor last week because I'm still sore and stiff. I just wanted to make sure everything is okay. He looked and said, oh my gosh they're perfect. Said they're just so pretty..ha! Said that my incisions look wonderful and that my implants are soft but to continue massaging. I told him my concern about being sore and tight while wearing a bra and he's like and why would you want to wear a bra? Those things are going to exactly where they are and perky when you're 80 years old....ha! He said that I am completely healed and that I could climb Mount Everest if I wanted to...ha! One of my biggest concerns was the pulling while walking my dogs. They're Pit Bulls and are very strong, but he said nothing is going to hurt me unless I fall off a 10 story building and land on my stomach....then I might smoosh them :-/
He said he thinks I'm still sore and still because I am still guarding them and being too protective. To just relax and push through....So, here's to pushing through...ha!
Happy Healing everyone.

Only the women on this web site would understand the need to take that many photos. I hope the incision pain resolves soon. If you stop wearing bras, you'll save a lot of money.

Ha! I've never taken so many pics in my life.... :-D
Thank You, I'm just keeping it in the back of my mind that the Dr. said I was healed. So, I need to start using my arms more so I'm not so stiff..
Ha, so true about the bras....however, I just took full advantage of the Victoria's Secret semi-annual sale....got a lot of good deals :-)
I also want to tell you thank you so much for your comments. They're really encouraging for me.

Girrrll your boobies look great!! Your first few more this were making me worried but I see that the end results were totally worth it!!
Right now I'm in my frankenboob stage (12 days). They are still riding high and stiff, like the mom from mean girls.
I love that your boobs are not enormous like most girls. I was a 34AA and can barely fit any bras. I got 300cc because I had absolutely no breast tissue. My recovery has been hell. I'm so happy to see someone with similar stats!! I hope to be a full B cup. That is my dreeeam! :) so glad you're a C cup because that's way more than what I can dream of. I haven't been measured yet because its way too soon. Anyway, thanks for sharing your story :)

Hi there...Thank you so much for your comments. My recovery has been a challenge but I'm getting better. I think the biggest mistake I made was that I gurarded them too much and in the long run, I think that is what slowed my recovery up.
yea, 12 days out you are definitely riding high. I didn't think mine would ever drop...ha!
I was either going with 286cc or 304cc but after talking to my doctor, we decieded on the 286 because it fit my frame better. I went back to Victoria's Secret to get remeasured because 34C just wasn't fitting right....They measured me at at 32D, so I think that will be my final size....I really only wanted a large B or Small C....ha! But, I do like the size and they compliment my body well. Running is a challenge but I think in time I will get used to it.
Happy Healing....Ask my any questions throughout your recovery....I will try to help as much as I can...chances are I've been thru it....ha!

Oh, I'm not sure when they started feeling soft but I think it was a couple months in....They still have a little more softening to do. I've been massaging but they're still sore, especially around the incision area.

Just checked your reviews and you look absolutely amazing!

And yes, I too feel very sexy in VS bras and bathing suits. I can't believe I went from them not having anything that would fit to having a ton of choices!!!
So good to "hear" from you again....funny I was thinking of posting myself again soon. I kinda miss the days of stalking everyone to see how their recovery was going.
Take care!!! XO
Would love for you to post an update.......but yea, I feel the same away about seeing how everyone has been doing...
take care....xoxo
