I was hoping someone else would bring this up but no luck! I have implants and I'm worried about the effects of loose skin and implants. If they were onset the muscle I think I wouldn't be so worried but these r over the muscle and so it's worrisome to me! Anyone else have them ?

Same here, but mine were already sagging so I am prepared to have them replaced later if needed. I am down 23 pounds and they look better, I don't know what they will look like at goal (65 pounds) but I think they are to big anyway.

I would ask your surgeon about that. I am thinking it through, and I don't see how you would have *much* of an issue. I would definatly wear a bra always to help keep them in place (like you did when you first had surgery - assuming you did) - for awhile until you can start working out. I would also suggest working out your chest now more pre-surgery to help build new muscle, so you won't go too far backwards. Does that make sense??

That's what I've been doing wearing my bra at night. I had surgery aug 13 down 40 lbs 40 to go! I just see sagging starting on my chin and stomach and hoping the implants r not effected next :( . Definately going to start working out the chest area though! Thanks for your response
