I went to high school with his daughter, who is also one of my cousin's wife's best friends.

And I am excited for that. The ones in my underarms are itchy and they pull when I lift my arms."</blockquote>


itchy stitches mean healing, so that's good. I feel sad because you are, totally understandably, upset that you weigh more and aren't fitting into pre-surgery stuff yet. I'm sure it just takes time, but maybe ask them at your appt tomorrow about how long the average time to get past all that will be?

Oh I totally will. I have seen nurses the last 2 times, but they made sure to make my appt for a day I could see him.

It was sad buying a pair of jeans a size up after I spend as much as a car to get smaller ya know?

yeah. she graduated a year after me. so, not even 6 degrees... like, 2, or 3, would it be? me, her, her dad, you.

34G WOW! I am sure once the swelling goes down you will feel much better!

you look great! I wish I didn't have to have the lift when I got mine done I hate my scars on my boobs.

Thanks.


I think I would be weird with scars on my boobs too. But I am sure they will fade to nothing really soon.

Do the silicone strips seem to help?

So I have the BEST update yet!

I was whining to DH how we spent all this money to make me fatter, so he told me to go to the liquor store and drink it off, lol. (BTW, this comes from my trainer telling me how he read about a study proving that alcohol flushes you out, and that when you lose weight, the fat cells will replace the fat with water, so if you drink it will flush out the cells and you will be "smaller" after a night of drinking)

So I drank a 6 pack of Mike's and bitched.

I woke up and swore my spanx felt looser, so I stepped on the scale. Pre-surgery weight! I had to test this, so I grabbed a pair of jeans... They fit! ALLLLLL my jeans fit! And even loosely! Even my skinnies that were tight until an hour or so of wear weren't tight anymore. Of course I figured it was the spanx... Nope. they fit better WITHOUT!!


These are my first jeans I put on. 6's... And yes I am a mess, I just got out of bed and haven't had my coffee or even fixed my ponytail, lol. I was too excited!!








YAAAAYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's amazing. Your boobs really do look perfect on you!

I think they have helped a bit when I am able to buy them, they are expensive

Quoting Bop ✿:" I think they have helped a bit when I am able to buy them, they are expensive"

That's what I have heard. I just got all my stitches out yesterday so I am wondering if I should even bother or not or just stick with Mederma

I mean, I have to spend $70 and up for bras cause of my crazy size, so I am kinda getting tired of putting so much money into all this lol

You look fabulous!!!!!!
