hello,
what sports bra is everyone getting? is it just the one they recommend ? also how long did everyone take off work? i live 2 mins walk away from mine n sit at a desk all day so what wld u recommend? xxx
Hey hun. Im still pre-op at the mo but most people like the macom bra (thats what im getting) or alternatively you can get one in Asda for £8. Or M & S do them for £20.
Regarding time off it also depends if your having unders or overs? Unders have a longer healing time so maybe just a week.
I drive for a living so I’ve been told I need 2 weeks off. Hope this helps a little xxx
yes thank you! i didnt even know about the overs and unders til coming on this forum! lol all i know is i dnt want them under my chin and want go from an A|B to a D
xxxx
hi ive only booked a week off work. i work two mins from my house and have a really easy desk job. no lifting or anything like that. i am having unders so hopefully it should be ok.
i have bought a macom an asda sports bra and a m&s post surgery bra. i thought i would try them all.
whens your BA?
i used a maximum sports bra from tesco it was only £6 and just as supportive as the shock absorber from debhenams, also my job is quite physical and i had only 1 week off and i felt fine going back xx xx
hi carmel
im going to meet the surgeon on wednesday and have the money all ready so looking to book asap really!
provided i can get the time off work anyways ! i have already booked 2 wks off work in june as was meant to be going on holiday but this has changed all that and i dnt think i can wait til then!
how long did u all wait til u saw the surgeon to getting the op? xxx
Hey sezza, Im a a/b and wanted to look a D and have been recommended 410 high profile. Bear in mind what you measure is bigger than what you look with fake boobs. If you wanna “look” a D than make sure you tell the surgeon that other wise you may end up only looking a C.
I saw the surgeon end of Jan and my op is next month but that was my choice to wait so long xxx
Nikki – Just looked at ya other new pics. Looking fab xxx
thank you fairy dust, im loving my new gel bra cant wait to wear it lol xx
I got the support bras, non wired at debenhams, very comfy.. 18 pounds.
I think u should take a week off, cos you just at your desk.. But everyone recovery differently.. If ur fit you mite recover in a few days and be back at your desk..
Basically for 2 weeks, minimize upper arm movements.
i tried getting the ones from m&s with a zip up the front but they had sold out – got myself 2 sports bras from asda and they just as good and lower cut and only £6.
They do post surgery bras as well which are about a tenner
oh and i’ve booked a week off n i do basic office work so i think 2 weeks off should be enough for you 
xx
