    Question? ?

    if you don't mind me asking what size did your bra size drop from, I'm hoping to be a 34/36 C lol Im currently a 42DDI started in a 46DD. I'm now wearing a 40 D or DD depending on brand. I'm wearing my bras on the 3rd hook, so I'm think I should be able to try a 38 D /DD soon, even if I need to use a bra extender for a little while. I'm about half way to my goal, so I'm hoping for a 34/36 D when all is said and done wow that's awesome and your doing awesome, congratulations on your progress, when did you have your surgery, Ill be 3 weeks post op on monday my feet are smaller as well, pretty cool

    Protein Bars..When did you start?

    I was told at 4 weeks ,protein bars as tolerated, no nuts and depends on carbs/surgars etc but my plan is first week clear fluids only, 2nd week , fluids only, 3rd week puree/soft foods 4th week and so on regular foods but It's a limit to oz and so on, but as you can see, everyone diet plan is different and unique as we are as people in general, so wait for the call back from your nut, I hope it's very yummy and your belly can tolerate it, congratulations on your progress and to everyone else as well on this thread

    African American vsgers!

    I made sure I cleaned my incisions a few times a day, and once it finally scabbed over, I used Mederma.

Have a great day
  10. I don't know how I liked this or how I can take my like back but I truly didn't mean to like what you said and actually am very disgusted at what you said and will pray for you and I hope one day nothing happens to you or any of your kin and someone questions your authenticity , you are the reason many people that are sexually abused refrain from telling others, humble yourself There's nothing wrong with what I wrote. This thread is full of shrill harpies just waiting to attack anyone over the slightest of perceived offenses. A normal, sane person would know that my comment was showing compassion while at the same time saying I don't know what happened. Because the truth is that none of us knows what happened. I hope this woman is able to get the law involved. Otherwise, you and others here need to think twice before you start attacking people. clearly you are delusional, I pray for you last night and will do so again tonight

  13. Wow, a week already, it seemed like it took forever for approval and even longer for surgery day but once surgery day came , it came and went so fast, after surgery I woke up in so much pain, thinking what the heck did I do to myself, I thought I was prepared. Being as though I had 5 children and 2 of them being twins via c section, all were delivered drug free but my twins. I WAS WRONG, no post, no where on here can even have you imagine what you will feel like until you actually feel it. If you need meds, ask for them, you will not get any regonition or awards for being miserable and in pain, it's a week later and I haven't had any pain meds since Friday, I was in the hospital from Monday, sept 14th, 2015 till Thursday September 17th because I couldn't keep myself dehydrated, and felt like I was pregnant (nauseous ) , It's essential that you sip, walk and rest and repeat and repeat and don't pack a big ol bag cause your honestly not going need none of it, I'm guilty of over packing and wore home the same stuff I wore in, comfy loose clothes and only used , my house coat, slippers, cell phone, charger , extention cord , toothpaste and toothbrush and deodorant, my hospital provided everything else from warm body wipes, chapstick, gas x strips , mouthwash etc etc ....the day of surgery I slept my entire day away but everyday after has gotten better, today I'm in little to no pain and went back to work today, it's strange but I'm not hungry at all so I just sip throughout the day for my Protein and other nutrients and to keep myself hydrated, I cooked Breakfast and dinner for my family for the first time since surgery yesterday, it drained me and, yes it smelled amazing but I had no desire for a taste what so ever more so wanted a fan on me and to rest, Maybe I didn't want a taste, cause it was a fear of the consuquences (after effect) or maybe It's a mind Thing or Maybe both, I have been putting neosporin on my incisions since Friday (check with your dr first) and I have been taking a walk daily everyday a little more, I had a really bad pain in my left shoulder, I freaked out, called the surgeon on call, it was gas built up, he told me to walk more, and wind my shoulder sure enough it went away, if you feel any PAIN or have any type of WORRIES call your doctor /surgery team etc, that's what their being paid for, and drink plenty of fluids, rest and WALK ...thank you for taking the time to read my post and congratulations on your own courage to take this journey, you can do it and you will do it HW 298 SW 270 CW 259 (one week post op)

    African American vsgers!

    I have a one year old as well and 4 other children and I'm one week post op and no way am I able to lift him, it's been a struggle, I bought a stepping stool for him to assist him on my bed, it's been easier for me to have him sleep with me and use the stepping stool for him to get in his high chair, to the sink to brush his teeth etc, best wishes

    One week post op

    yw, I had so many fears , biggest one was not waking up, soon as you close your eyes you will open your eyes so no worries and yes you will feel pain but soon as you get meds they work almost immediately, I was in pain for about 15 min tops, At the time it felt longer and stay consistent with it and you will feel little to no pain and make sure walk or u will get gas pains, I had none because I walked alot but didn't over do it, I only had gas pains once and that was in my shoulder , congratulations on your upcoming surgery and best wishes and keep me updated
  21. Omg , your story took my breath away, I'm lost for words, I am terribly sorry this has happened to you, and I hope they fry the nasty rapist that sexually assulted you, lots of prayers and hugs for you
  22. What did you put on your incisions after surgery, to reduce the swelling, scars etc etc .......thank you in advance
  23. wow, congratulations, when was your surgery , keep up the great work????????????????
