So everything is still great. I really LOVE them!! Back in the gym...upper body strength is practically back. Me and my friend took it upon ourselves (with the help of YouTube) to size me. We ended up getting a 32 DD...which didn't sound right to me. Well...went to Nordstrom to get sized...and I'm a 32 DDD but can for a 32 DD comfortably.
This just makes me think that women around the world are wearing the wrong bra size...lol

I hope my recovery is as fast as yours. I'm so concerned with push-ups & reading lots of different answers. I'll just have to wait and see, but I'm feeling hopeful.
You look great!

Hi, I too am a vet tech and am having surgery Nov. 4. (250-275cc HP silicone unders) and I'm a little concerned about going back to work. (I'm also a little older than you....51). My coworkers know I'm having this surgery, so hopefully they will be able to do the heavy lifting for me. I'm glad to see you did okay going back. I will be back PO day 8. You look great btw!

They look great! Dr. Cohen does beautiful work.
They gave me the band at my 2 week post appointment on Monday. How long did you wear yours for?
Did you use biocorneum for your incision scars or something else?

Thanks!! They gave me a band at my 2 week post op appt too. I wore my for a couple weeks. Slept with it on and wore it to work...but I would also take it off to breathe lol. I'm using this scar cream I got from cvs. The nurse just told me to find one that was silicone based.

So things are still going great. Had my sutures taken out last week and went back to the gym today. Feels weird doing chest exercises, had to go super light, which I'm not use to doing. And I have to wear a band cause they're still sitting high.

Your MD said you could do chest exercises already? You look great! We are similar stats and I feel like they are high too but it takes awhile for them to settle

Thanks!! I can do VERY VERY light chest workouts...5 lbs cause it just feels weird to me....but cleared to do everything else. I just have to slowly build up to where I was. I wear my band at night and throughout part of the day.

Thanks...I'm really enjoying them :) Haven't got sized yet though.

You look fantastic!! I can't wait to get back to the gym! I'm 12 days post op not ready to get back yet.. We'll take that back I've been ready since day 1 but physically I can't chance it yet! Can't wait! Did you do any cardio or just weights?
User Avatar
June 2, 2015
I don't really do a lot of cardio...so all I did was weights. Lower body I did fine...just have to take it easy with upper body for a while. I'm prepping for my 2nd bikini fitness competition...so we'll see how this prep goes!

I am definitely not allowed to do any chest workouts until that pocket has fully formed (or risk capsular contracture, or misshapen implants) until 4 weeks. We have very similar stats- 5'6" 130 (I guess I'm closer to 5'5.5" as I follow metric and it doesn't ratio correctly). I still wear my compression bra 24/7 as to ensure the pocket doesn't stretch. Did you go over or under?
