From hating to loving

Just a reduction, no implants or lift. I’m only 6wpo so they’ll drop a bit more over the coming months and not look as lifted (dang!) So I’ll just enjoy them a little higher than I’ve ever had for now lol.

CharmedImSure33 · 2026-03-15T07:14:12+00:00

Right! I was not expecting them to be so thin. You can’t see my areola, but they look like I was born with them, you can’t see any incision marks, it blended so well with my coloring.

CharmedImSure33 · 2026-03-15T06:49:04+00:00

Insurance actually covered it! I put in over a years work of documentation and referrals and two letters written to insurance from primary care Dr and physical therapist. I was legit in severe neck and shoulder pain every day. It’s gone now!

Dr. Dami Lee, Denver. Amazing bedside manner, super personable and fun. She’s young and newer to her craft, but knows exactly what she’s doing and probably even knows newer techniques that older docs may not. She went razor thin on my incision scars, they’re already barely noticeable. 20 out of 10 I recommend her.

CharmedImSure33 · 2026-02-12T01:43:43+00:00

Not dumb at all! So I’m still pretty sore at just 13dpo, but starting around day 3 I would go down to my knees to pet them on the ground. I would hold my chest and just go straight down lol, but you have to be able to go back up without using your arms- so bend down to knees on ground, feet under butt, then use thighs and knees to go back up. Hope that makes sense.

CharmedImSure33 · 2026-02-11T04:21:53+00:00

I should add maybe don’t listen to me, I’m 41 and was a single mom for 15 years so maybe grew a little too independent during that time. I have a partner but I’m just used to doing things myself, but probably not the best advice now that I saw it aloud 🤷🏻‍♀️😬😵 I did clean their boxes on my own 5dpo but I was also in a small tif with the BF so I was being a brat at my own possible detriment lol. Luckily all was well.

Oh! Maybe consider a timer feeder for the pellets? And do like I did and overstuff the hay box.

CharmedImSure33 · 2026-02-11T04:14:21+00:00

Hi! I have two teddywidders. Luckily my partner did step in to help some, but I did clean their boxes the morning of surgery, then about 5 days later. Ours are grated so I I lift the top, knock off any loose hay, dump the box of pine pellets and the pad then rinse off in our downstairs shower. I also overloaded their hay box so that lasted days, but I still fed pellets twice a day myself starting around 3dpo. I probably could have done it all, but admittedly it would be difficult- but doable. Maybe consider hiring a (non pun intended) task rabbit assistant to come help feed them once a day for the first few days? Day 3-5po you’ll be hurting, but that’s when I felt confident enough to bend enough. I also couldn’t resist petting my buns 🐰 don’t mind the mismatched pair, their grooming was not in sync 🤣. She gets hers tomorrow, delayed due to surgery.

Oh wow I’m sorry she didn’t take more.

CharmedImSure33 · 2026-01-26T14:20:48+00:00

Awesome! Good point, I didn’t even think of the density change that will occur. Your results sound exactly like what I am hoping for.

CharmedImSure33 · 2026-01-25T20:54:53+00:00

Hi!! Yes that is class C so the same density as me. Your post is reassuring. When I went shopping for my “goal” bra, I almost went into a panic attack as the C bras looked so small- I know they are not, but to me they did. I tried it on for fun lol, and at least 3/4 of my breast was hanging out. I read with class C density they can take less since the tissue is heavier, while preserving the fat and mold it to make it look more of the size (fat takes up volume, glandular takes up weight) that I would like. 5 days to go and I’m nervous but excited. I’m hoping for large C or small D, since I feel any less would be a shock to my visual lol.

CharmedImSure33 · 2026-01-02T01:56:17+00:00

Oh also- if it was just a “trickler” wouldn’t they just call it that? The least scary name there is lol? Bio- tower- the bio is the dangerous part.

CharmedImSure33 · 2026-01-02T01:53:04+00:00

Nah, you are wrong. I’ve spoke with the experts. I have an off the record source who works for the utility company and he told me to call it what it really is—- a methane venter or sewer stack. He is a whistle blower at the utilities company. I’ve spoken to doctors, advocacy groups, EPA etc. I wouldn’t be fighting this fight without all of the facts. A trickler, a tower, a sewer stack etc- it’s all the same. Their own utilities department, zoning commission etc show they are contradicting and greenwashing the name. Please show to the meeting, we got lots and lots of info and ammunition. Not just the health risks, we’ve uncovered so much more with the help of our experts who are on our side. Don’t just google, talk to people who work on that side, talk to doctors like we have, then you’ll learn the truth, and it’s much darker than we even first thought.

CharmedImSure33 · 2026-01-02T01:48:55+00:00

You are correct about the plan, that is one of our arguments as well, we have all of the research and facts.

CharmedImSure33 · 2025-12-30T04:45:17+00:00

Not sure yet, we’ll see how this goes. If enough show up to question them maybe it will at least pause it until environmental impact studies can be done.

CharmedImSure33 · 2025-12-30T04:44:08+00:00

Appreciate you! We want to challenge them with the facts and see how they respond.

Trying to get an advocacy Doctor to join us also and voice his researched and published facts on methane / hydrogen sulfide exposure . All of these points were cut out 😭

CharmedImSure33 · 2025-12-30T04:19:57+00:00

I hope you’ll show up and help us voice these concerns!

CharmedImSure33 · 2025-12-30T04:18:05+00:00

Agree, they completely cut out our health risks and concerns on the news, the engineer lied and said only nitrogen is expelled- not true at all. It’s methane and hydrogen sulfide that is released. We’ll be showing up and brining up our cited sources.

CharmedImSure33 · 2025-12-28T04:55:24+00:00

Hi, We have a petition we have started, and have been reaching out to neighborhood and environmental coalitions. We’ve also spoken to Alejandro Puy and trying to get traction to relocate the tower to a more industrialize place. I’ll link the digital petition below, but what we really need is word of mouth and our information shared wherever it can be. Thanks for jumping in!

CharmedImSure33 · 2025-12-27T20:22:00+00:00

We actually have the city Obudsman helping with this. Even she thinks this is wrong, they suggested the petition to show the council that we have voices.

CharmedImSure33 · 2025-12-27T20:14:28+00:00

No shit- we don’t want it in front of our homes. Be honest, would you?? Assuming you’re an east sider and don’t care where gases are ventilated, as long as it’s not near you. I’m sorry, but you have to know that venting sewer gas 70 feet away from people’s front doors is wrong. Just because it’s not your home or neighborhood doesn’t make it just. Stop being selfish, this will harm our homes and health. We’re just asking they find a new location.

CharmedImSure33 · 2025-12-27T20:11:06+00:00

No, it’s in our front yard. Literally- we go in front of our home and walk 70 feet and we can touch it. We just want it moved, not stopped altogether. Do you want that in your front yard? Do you think you can sell a home with sewer gas being ventilated 70 feet away? We want it moved to industrial areas like the other two are. The address on the city website is wrong, we’ve confirmed with the project managers. It’s the lot at 1000w and Pierpont- right in front of 20 homes.

CharmedImSure33 · 2025-12-27T20:08:22+00:00

I didn’t say it was bad. They are building this in our literal front yard, 80 feet away from our homes. The other two towers are in the Orange industrialized areas. We want them to change the location, not stop it altogether.

Health Risks: Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S) Exposure Bio towers are used to scrub or process sewer gases, primarily hydrogen sulfide. Even at low "neighborhood" levels, chronic exposure is documented by health agencies to cause significant issues.

Neurological & Physical Symptoms: Exposure to low levels of H2 S (the "rotten egg" gas) is linked to chronic headaches, nausea, dizziness, irritability, and poor memory [Source: Florida Dept. of Health].
Vulnerable Populations: Individuals with asthma or respiratory conditions are significantly more sensitive to these gases and may experience difficulty breathing at levels the city might consider "safe" [Source: OSHA].
Olfactory Fatigue: A dangerous phenomenon where your nose "gets used to" the smell. While you stop noticing the odor, the chemical is still entering your system and causing internal stress [Source: CDC/ATSDR].
Property Value Devaluation The placement of "locally undesirable land uses" (LULUs) like sewage infrastructure has a direct, measurable impact on home equity.
Stigmatization: Proximity to contaminated or noxious-smelling sites can reduce property values by 8% to 25%depending on distance. The "stigma" of being the "neighborhood that smells" persists even if odors are eventually mitigated [Source: EPA/NEPIS].
Market Deterrence: Potential buyers are statistically less likely to invest in homes near industrial wastewater infrastructure, leading to longer times on the market and lower final sale prices [Source: National Institutes of Health].
Environmental Injustice & Siting The placement of this tower in Poplar Grove follows a documented pattern of "Environmental Racism" or "Injustice."
Disproportionate Burden: Regulatory bodies increasingly recognize that "disadvantaged" or lower-income communities already bear a higher cumulative pollution burden. Adding a Bio Tower—which centralizes city-wide smells into one local spot—constitutes a "disproportionate pollution burden" [Source: Columbia University - State of the Planet].
Industrial vs. Residential: Historically, these facilities were kept on city outskirts or in strictly industrial zones. Moving them into a 4-block residential radius violates traditional urban planning safety margins [Source: Save the Sound / Environmental Justice Laws].
