You look GREAT!!!

Yay!!! The last drain is out!!! It is so much easier to go to the bathroom and I have my pocket back. It is hard to believe that my surgery was less than 2 weeks ago! I feel so good. I look good too! I went to target and tried on some clothes. It is going to be hard not to buy clothes now! EVERY thing looks good! I am now a size 8! I started at a size 24 and 297 in May of last year. Now I am 164 5'8 and a size 8. Was a size 10 before my tt. He says I will be smaller still because of the swelling. I don't think I will be a 6 though.

Now that your drains are out do you still have to wear your binder?

I over did it a bit yesterday and I woke up feeling like my binder had shrunk 6 inches.

When I went for my first follow up, he took off the binder and put me in a compression garment. It is different but still uncomfortable. I am in a different compression garment now and it is more comfortable a little.

Here is my new belly button. It is not quite healed. I am 3 weeks out today. I'm doing really well. Maybe too well. I think I am overdoing it.

Ok here I go! Back to real life. I start back at work today. I have been dreading this day. I really enjoyed my time off! The only upside is that I get to show off my new figure! I still have a lot of swelling over 5 weeks out in my tummy. My breasts look fantastic though! I will be interested to see how going back to work effects me as far as the swelling and how tired I will be when I get home.

For your BA...what size were you before and after? I am getting implants and a TT next month but am unsure if I want to stay on the smaller side or go bigger.

Wow! You look absolutely AMAZING.

Prior to ba I was a 36-38 b as they were pretty empty. He put in gummy implants that were 350 and 425 cc ( my breasts were different sizes). I recently measured at a bra store as a 36 dd.

I'm green with envy...you look FANTASTIC!! What is even more important is you sound so happy!

After discussing it with several people...women and men BTW I decided to stay smaller. There were many convincing arguments .. Mostly for the staying smaller, but discussing it helped me visualize my idealized self and what i consider sexy... And that is an athletic build. My implants were 240 gummy type and look like I will be a C cup but only 2 weeks out so not sure yet. So far they just feel right for me especially with that flat tummy.
