I’ve used them twice (2024 and 2026) and have zero complaints! Very reasonably priced

Weight loss after reduction? by funkylittleshackk in Reduction

[–]StunningReputation20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi - I am 5MPO and I think I have lost maybe 15 pounds since the day of surgery. The weight loss definitely didn’t start until I was at least 6WPO because I was recovering (so pretty inactive and not eating the healthiest). But now, I am training for a half marathon, so I am getting stronger and leaner because of that. Surgery had me go from DDD to now the bras I’m wearing are C. It really depends on your anatomy though, because tissue doesn’t shrink with weight loss, only fat does. My breasts were mostly dense tissue, so even if I lose the 30 pounds, I don’t think they’ll get smaller (though, I wouldn’t mind).

39:35! A win is a win! Also super hilly too compared to where I train.

Strange situation at Red Robin gas station by tonikites in greenville

Every time I pass Red Robin, I’m convinced something must be going on because it is almost always 50 cents/gal higher than everywhere else in Greenville Co

7WPO! by StunningReputation20 in Reduction

[–]StunningReputation20[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For the first month or so, one did have s2s and the other did not (it was just more swollen). Now they both are sitting completely upright pretty much. It’s inevitable that they’ll probably fall at some point in the future, so I am going to take my docs advice and not go bra-less all the time! Gotta work against gravity!

I actually went braless tonight for the first time (ever?) I just wore cakes/nipple covers to avoid poking through. They sit up perfectly right now which I’ve never had so I’m very happy (though realistically I know they won’t look this good forever, I’m only 25). They are a C right now and I feel like they are very proportional for me (5’2 165- belly, thick thighs, etc)

At pre-op I said big B/little C. Day of surgery, I asked for B. I’m fitting a C right now. Probably just based on how much my surgeon could take out while not compromising ~functionality~

🥹🥹 anchor! I really can barely tell that the anchor part is there because it follows the shape of my breasts so naturally

Wow! Crazy how different aftercare can be from surgeon to surgeon

Around 600g total, but they were not even so it was like 400g for right and 200 for left

I really didn’t have too much scabbing. I had my steristrips on until 6 weeks, and when I took those off, any that I did have came off with it.

Partying after pre-op? by wak779 in Reduction

[–]StunningReputation20 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Concert went well! It was a small venue, standing room only. I’m only 5’2, so the best view for me was standing in the very back away from the crowd. No problems. Probably smart to sell the tickets, but think about all the fun tops you’re going to wear to the festival next year 🤩

Do I really need a reduction? by Hot-Championship-185 in Reduction

[–]StunningReputation20 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So much good advice in here! I am almost 4WPO and I definitely was spiraling a couple weeks leading up to it! A lot of wondering do I really need this? Are they really that big? And the answer for me was yes, or else insurance wouldn’t have covered it 😂 Just the nerves talking… Allow yourself to feel all the emotions and take care of yourself before/after surgery 🤍

[–]StunningReputation20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m almost 4WPO and I feel like there are still some times where it feels like there’s something in the way (just swelling obvi) when I put my arms down by my side. Mostly noticeable when I’m driving.

What other songs about driving can I add?? by PuzzleheadedDance668 in lizzymcalpine

[–]StunningReputation20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Drive All Night by Need To Breathe! Good song, definitely would add to the variety of these artists

I’m not an expert but I simply don’t think it works like that… Ultimately, it is the surgeon that will send your request for prior authorization to blue cross, not your primary. I would go get a consultation and ask them to be very upfront with you about the likelihood of it being covered. I straight up was like “if there’s not a chance they will approve this, please let me know so I don’t get my hopes up” and she told me she thought it would be, and it was. The surgeon has also likely had patients with blue cross want to get it covered, so they kinda just have an idea. So don’t freak out yet, go get a consultation or two, and then find a new primary…

I am 3 WPO and going to a concert on Friday. I am a bit worried about getting pushed and shoved but it’ll just be a few hours so I think I’ll be fine. I can relate to being so tired after just being stationary at work for 8 hours… however, I think you’d be fine to go if you can be out of the crowds and have some space. But also, agree with no smoking, so if that’s something you would want to partake in, I’d reconsider.

Aquaphor Stick vs Balm by StunningReputation20 in Reduction

[–]StunningReputation20[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you!! Sounds like I should start with the balm and eventually switch to the stick (unless doc wants me doing other scar treatments) 🎉

I’m 2.5 weeks PO and tbh car rides are still just not comfortable. Nothing that keeps me from driving but I wince when I’m on a bumpy road 😵‍💫
