    8 weeks post op!

    I am now 3 months post op and feel back to my old self!!! Well mainly back to my ok self sometimes I will still get a pain here or there! I have no restrictions and can do anything I want now! I must say doing ab exercises were hell in the beginning but are getting easier as time goes on! My boobs still get sore at times like when I first wake up and at the end of the day but they look awesome and have really rounded out and taken a beautiful shape! I couldn't be happier with all my results!

    You look fantastic!!! He did great work!!
  3. I have very good results as well, I was told to massage the scars with my compound which is like maderma but by Rx. As I did that I would hear and feel a pop. It actually felt good! I was told it was the scar tissue breaking down. At the moment down near my pubic region underneath my scar, I have a few internal "lumps" from the internal sutures that I am massaging trying to break up. If I can't break them up my surgeon will use laser treatment to break it up. It's only like an inch an a half area so not bad for everything I ha done even if it were to remain! But I have faith in my surgeon that it will go away!
  4. From what I understand implants under the muscle hide the implant so to speak. For people like me who don't have any breast tissue or breast "fat" left an only have skin on top of muscle... If they were to put the implant on top of the muscle you would see the implant and you would see rippling and what not, so they put it under the muscle to try to mask or hide the implant so you hopefully won't see any rippling or anything.

    I usually use my iPhone to go on this site so I rarely see my ticker, but I will try to remember to change it soon! I had my PS done in the US.

    Awww thank you !! I never would have thought "I" would have a body other women wanted !!! It is truly touching to hear the responses!
  11. Oh and front close was a life saver for me when it came to sports bras!!! Trying to wrangle one over top of your head after a breast augmentation AND an arm lift isn't gonna happen so try to find one that fastens up the front
  12. You need actual compression garments for your arms, surprised they aren't providing those. You can order them online. For your boobs, any good sports bra should do. Not the little donkey ones with spaghetti straps. I'm talking the maximum support ones.. No underwire either!!

    Peanut Butter

    At 2 1/1 weeks post op I don't think that crackers should be something you should be eating. I understand the craving but please don't sabotage your new tool by divulging in your old habits, you will not only self sabotage yourself but this early on you could possibly hurt your new pouch! please try and stick to the foods your surgeon and nutritionist have you eating at this stage. It's not only for weight loss but also for your new pouch to heal. If you are craving peanut butter try PB2 sometimes you can find it at Wal-Mart but you can definitely find it at GNC. It has 85% less fat and calories than regular peanut butter and you mix it with water. Try to find healthier alternatives for things that you crave, but also remember that a lot of times when you think your hungry it's really just thirst
