I didn’t see the replies!
I have gone light on things like the chest press etc as it’s not too comfortable yet.
Luckily my trainer is one of my family members so he knows the situation….
Any other questions just ask xxxxxx

Totally depends on the surgeon

Its alot of trauma to the skin, make sure your wearing a comfy sprots bra and that your clothes arent too tight.
It does ease off, I promise!

Give it a few weeks and they will look more natural…..
Remember the skin is stretched and swollen at the moment.

The 6 weeks gap in training wont suddenly make a difference to your shape.
I am at the gym daily (pre and post op) I started doing light cardio at 5 weeks and I started training with weights at the 6 week mark – 2 bras at all times
I had my ba at the…[Read more]

My follow up surgeon appointment is at the end of the month but surely I don’t have to wait till then to wear a normal bra?

As per my p.c has disappeared since 1 call after my surgery so I’m hoping one of you ladies can help.

Thank you

I can’t wait to get back to the gym!

Walking is fine but feels a bit strange as they are moving beneath the strapping. I get the strapping off tonight so I’m hoping that will be sorted.
The tightness when breathing wore off about day 6 for me, just take your time and if your out and about make sure you can sit down if…[Read more]

I was just wondering if it’s normal that no one from Mya has contacted me since. I understand I have been given the emergency numbers but no emails or texts were sent to see how it went and that I was happy.

Is this normal or have I been missed off the list?
