Guest guest Posted July 17, 2004 Report Share Posted July 17, 2004 Hi ! Wow! Congratulations on all the work you had done! Don't worry too much about the four pounds. Remember, you had implants added which probably weigh a little bit and you're probably still swelled from the tuck. I'm sure it'll go away in a week or so. So, what size are your breasts now? Did you get silicon or the new stuff? Sorry to hear about the house woes but glad to hear they're almost over. I have some experience in that area. The crooks who built our manufactured home used the absolute minimum standards on everything and as a result, the house is now uneven and it will cost us around $1500-$2000 to get it releveled. We've also had other problems but without making a list, I just wanted you to know that you have my commisseration. I know you'll be glad when it's over! Hope you start feeling better soon! Hugs!

Guest guest Posted July 18, 2004 Report Share Posted July 18, 2004 Thanks Tracey! I knew you'd be wondering about me. *lol* I had the saline implants. They normally order them but they just so happened to have an extra pair that they decided not to send back,when someone cancelled or something. You know how our beloved Dr K is...he told me what size they were going to be not the other way around. *lol* That was ok with me cause I have bad judgement with that stuff anyway! The implants were 300cc implants and one was filled to 275cc and the other 250cc...I think. So my best guess with all the swelling and sports bras going on right now..is maybe a Med to full C cup. Which is good cause my dad said he wouldn't lend me the money for anything larger than a C!! My weight had balloned up to 200 lbs by my dad's scale my first day here and now its down to 191! I'll take it. Thanks for all your great wishes. How are things with you? C > Hi ! > > Wow! Congratulations on all the work you had done! Don't worry too > much about the four pounds.

Guest guest Posted July 18, 2004 Report Share Posted July 18, 2004 Hi ! That's a good size! Yes, I was definitely wondering about you. hee hee! So glad to hear the scales are down! I knew they would be! Things are fine with me. I'm still fightin' the weight gain. I know I lost a couple of the 4 pounds I gained but I want to lose so much more! Yes, I know I should be happy with where I am and I'm really trying. Honest! This week will be a test for me. I'll be going to a convention and eating out everyday, all day. I can only afford the really cheap stuff, like Mcs, so I'm going to have to be VERY careful about what I eat. Then again, I'll most likely be walking at least 4 to 5 miles each day so maybe that will offset any bad food I put in my tummy. I've been keeping up with my regular walking on the treadmill, even though it's not helping me lose any weight. I do it because I know I should. If only I could be as dedicated to my eating habits! So, I know your tummy is probably still swelled, but how do you like it? Are you numb? Able to walk upright yet? You'll be surprised how quickly things will get better. It will happen day by day and one day you'll all of a sudden feel totally normal again! Take care of yourself! Hugs! Tracey > > Hi ! > > > > Wow! Congratulations on all the work you had done!

Guest guest Posted July 19, 2004 Report Share Posted July 19, 2004 Glad to hear that things are going well for you. From what Dr K said at the last meeting...lots of us experience a slight weight gain ..He said it was actually more healthy for us to be 10-15 pounds above our goal weight. I'll be rooting for you. I've had my stepmom caring for me this time and she is amazing. She has really helped me with my eating too. I can't wait to exercise. (Of course that'll be a while) I can walk almost up right...my shoulders get a little hunched because of the incisions under my breasts...I don't want to pull on those. I am still swelled and I will have to get used to all these scars! Right now it still feels like a pretty even trade...the scars for the fat...but I know that will change with time. I am still numb most of the time but feeling is returning quickly. I have been able to fee my left nipple from day one but not my right. Enough typing for one time for me.....*hugs* C > Hi ! > > That's a good size! Yes, I was definitely wondering about you. > hee hee! > >> Things are fine with me.
