The ripple effect

Let me just start off by saying I feel so lucky that I went to the best doctor ever =) I am so pleased with my surgery and like I have said before I would do it all over in a second. Unfortunately one of my friends is not as lucky as me. She got her surgery about 2 months before I did and she was psyched. Her breasts looked amazing. Well a couple days ago she came to me and said "I need you to come look at my implants" I was like oh no. So we went into the bathroom and she showed me. At first I couldn't really see anything and then she started moving around. I could see the bags under her skin. They weren't awful but they were definitely there. Then she was like feel, and all I could feel were all the little bumps underneath. It made me very thankful that I went to the doctor that I did.

I know that anything is possible and people's bodies are all different. I just feel that my doctor gave me a complete understanding of what to expect and why he put the size implants that he did. It is very important to feel comfortable with your surgeon. My friend is so upset and embarrassed by her surgery that she wants to get them redone. They really aren't that bad... but she wants to feel comfortable in her own body which is understandable.

My advice to anyone that is planning on getting this surgery done is do your research. There are so many different doctors out there you HAVE to find the one that is right for you!

Best Vacation Ever

It has been a while since my last blog. I have been on vacation for the past 2 weeks... maybe i should say paradise! All I have to say is I have NEVER been so excited to put on a bathing suit in my life!!! I met up with some old friends who I haven't seen since my surgery. They couldn't believe how wonderful I look. I think I just contributed to 3 more surgeries in the world =)

My only concern was my scars. I tried my best to keep my arms down the whole time I didn't want to expose them to the sun. I put on a little bit of sunblock just to be on the safe side. My scars have faded a lot but they are still there. No one seemed to notice. Not even my friends.

My self confidence level was through the roof. I know it sounds lame but I can't get over how wonderful my new breasts look!

It has been 3 months since my surgery and I feel pretty normal. Sometimes I have a little pain. I am still getting use to myself again. Sometimes when I sleep I am sore in the morning but other than that I am feeling very good. Each day that goes by I am even happier than the day before. I can't wait till I go home next month and I get to see the rest of my friends and family!
