Breast implants- considering them



Recommended Posts

@@naturegirl I'm a runner too. Doing my first half marathon in April! The implants are nothing that doubling up on sports bras can't handle. I just wear two bras and the bouncing isn't a problem. The chafing is still an issue on long runs, but that has nothing to do with size.... that has to do with the fact that apparently no one who designs sports bras has ever actually tried running in one... Stupid seams in the wrong places!

I decided against implants too, because I did not want more surgery in the future. But...

I still want implants.

To me, Implants really make the breast look full and beautiful.

I am also a runner, so I did not want the extra size and weight. But...

I still want implants.

I love my girls and my breast reduction. My plastic surgeon did a wonderful job. But. . .

Guess I am still on the fence.

I got a moderate saline implant. The pain was non existent because it was just filling out the loose skin that was already there. At my largest I was a 42DD. I went to the plastic surgeon for a breast lift, when he explained it to me, I was scared of the amount of scaring and he said I would be a full B cup... WHAT?!?!?! So he actually suggested the implant and now I am a 34 DDD. I love my boobs and I would do it all over again, just don't get discouraged because they do sit high for a bit most drop between 6-8 weeks mine didn't until 12 weeks. Also take the time to massage them and create the pocket. Mine look and feel real and I love it!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
