Day 4 post op (Uplift and BA 325cc responsives) update..

Tummy has deflated, laxatives have worked a treat.. thank God!!

Back in my tight jeans and heels again

Haven’t taken any painkillers today for first day, just on the antibiotics and anti inflams now, going to listen to my body rather than take them constantly

Macom bra feeling so restrictive, have switched to my post op Asda bra which is so much more comfy , not sure it holds them as tightly together but i needed a breather from the macom!!

Went to my gym this morning, sat on the upright bike with back support, kept my arms in my lap and did 35 mins very gently on level 4, burned 200 calories and didn’t strain myself or get too hot / raise my blood pressure – felt fine

3 days til my strappings are taken off, Woohoo!!!!

Having a much better day so far today, yesterday I did rock bottom, ended up spending most of it in bed, monged on tramadol with no appetite at all.

I’m getting there slowly xx

Breasts are aching a bit but so much comfier than they have been, it’s gradually getting better as each day passes xx

Glad your feeling better chick, can’t believe you went to the gym though you crazy lady lol X

By 1pm i was feeling like i’d died again and i’ve spent all afternoon in bed again I’m back on the tramadol as the pain just got too bad and my hubby said i went really white and looked very unwell so i’m back under the duvet, propped up against my v pillow with a hot water bottle.. think i’m going to accept that i need to let my body heal and stay here for a week xx

Missus I can’t believe you went to the gym! Do try and take it easy, even though you may not feel like you’re straining too much your body really needs rest while it recovers from the trauma. So glad you’re on the up though I think we’re over the worst now! Xx

Think i’m on the way down again now Nothing else for it than to have a KFC bucket tonight he he! feeling better no i’m warm and under the duvet, i was just worried about putting weight on for all the laying around but clearly my body needs the rest.

How was work today Claire? xx

Blondie! Monged on tramadol, wow, I actually laughed out loud. What a perfect way to describe it.

Your such a determined little soul, let your body rest! It’s just given you a little reminder that you need to take it easy.

Take care chick

xx

i will thanks, I’m so stupid.. i’m going to listen to people now xx

Lol when I got home the night of the op me and my boyfriend ordered a Chinese! We deserve the crap good at times Luke these! Seriously though just try and forget about the weight thing, if you eat sensibly (once you’re back to normal) you won’t be too bad, and just get back on top of it after the 6weeks.

Work was crappp, wanted to be back under the duvet! But I felt ok. Took the stairs for a bit of exercise but only had half hour lunch so had no time to walk. Def need to start walking a little bit xx

had you told anyone at work? and did people notice?

I run a big department and i’m nervous about the first day back xx

Only my manager and the lady I sit next to know, and as far as I know nobody has noticed.

I think people only tend to notice if its already been pointed out to them, unless if course its overly obvious x

i’ve told a few people but they didn’t when i was having it done, i’m just going to keep quiet and someone will undoubtedly notice on a night out when i’m showing them off ! x

No one noticed at my work either. I told them and they didn’t believe me!

xx

i’m just conscious that i look very different because the strapping makes them stick out alot and not the shape i’d want yet, i always used to wear very fitted clothes at work as well.. i may just wear suits until they are settled x
