Awesome! I hope you get there! My wedding dress was size 6, but the sizes are different. I weighed 112 and my clothes was size 4. My wedding ring hasn't fit for about 10 years now. Forget a new ring, I want this surgery!

I am 4 days post op and I am sad to say the gas pain for me was a living he!! I looked at my surgeon with tears in my eyes like I had failed because of the nasty gas pain. They took x rays and found a lof of gas has shifted over to my left breast and that was the big deal.

It's so nice to see others not have pain. But it wasn't me : (. As of today day 4 post op my tummy feels like Jello inside. I keep a pillow close by the slight pressure adds comfort. The gas ... Gads I hope it's gone : )

We are all so different going thru this journey to be healthy for ourselves and to be active in society again. We all ROCK!

:unsure: Alrighty then' date=' wow that just made my heart skip a beat!!![/quote']

I still don't know what to think of it but I do know that they have no idea what caused it. I felt fine. Didn't even know I had any problems till cardio doc came in later that day to tell me. Heck they didn't even call my husband about it. So with all that I will follow up but for now I think it was a fluke.

It's just nice we can share our experiences and then go to have our own. Don't worry things will turn out beautiful inside and out in the long run : )
