Final fill and the start of phase 2!

Well I decided to go with 700cc's! Right now I have about 550cc. I'm so happy with the size I am now and I feel it fits my body perfect! It's so hard to believe they removed close to 1200cc of my own breast tissue!! Wow! I didn't realize how big I was! I don't even miss them! I kinda just miss my nipples!!! Lol! Is that weird?!?! I don't really care if it is...they were so pretty....ha ha!
Anyways, I am in phase 2: settling of the expanders which takes about 3mo then my exchange surgery!!! Woohoo!
So right now I have 550cc and my dr will order a 700cc silicone implant. Because of the shape of silicone implants they are more round and they loose volume but he will also put some volume in as well. That's why he's ordering a 700cc implant to offset that and make me a cup size bigger all at the same time (this also saves me drone having more painful fills) So I'll be a cup size bigger than I am right now! The surgery will take about 2hrs. They will re cut my mastectomy incision and remove any skin (I do have some skin because I had a non nipple skin sparing mastectomy) he will also adjust the placement because the expanders are shaped like footballs they are more under my arms. He will place them towards the middle, like real boobs I guess. Then Pull the skin tight and make them look oh so lovely! I'm so excited! I can't believe they will look any better! I'm in love with them now! I show them off all the time. Oh! And I'm obsessed with boobs right now...I guess because that's my whole focus right now....lol!
My surgery will be sometime in Aug....I think I may do the 3rd week...don't know why just seems like a good time for me ;) he said I will be down for about 5-7 days but knowing me it will be 2 days ha!
He also said I can wear a bra now! Here is a bra I had in my drawer...a DD, and it fits!

Mother's Day!

Wasn't that good...I miss my mother....I love my kids and I'm blessed to be a mom....that's all.

Sorry I haven't written in a while. Life is really good and I'm enjoying the fact I feel AHHHHMAZING!!!!!

I have been shopping a lot lately because I have been loosing weight and have been between M/L dresses so I've had to purchase some new clothes. I still don't feel comfortable in jeans cause the booty is out of control...ha ha! I love love my curves and I'm not trying to loose weight or anything just eating healthier....
I also started swimsuit shopping! I love bathing suits and love my body in them! Now with the new FOOBS I love clothes on! Ever since I hit 30 I just feel so good in my skin. Im sure my husband has something to do with it but I'm glad I'm in this place! It's a very happy place!!!!!

Happy Mother's Day loves....wish I had more to post about this day.....

Sunday!

Today I went to church with 2 of my 4 kids. It went really well! I was excited to see all my friends and it felt good to get out of the house and do my normal things!!! I love seeing everyone's smiles ....especially all the babies...who are btw getting sooo big! It was a really great day! I do get a little tired and still need to rest. My body is just not in sync with my mind right now...it's a little frustrating but, I know it will also get there! My dr said its normal to feel tired...most people do for a while. I guess because I don't sleep very well still. But...I must say...my nights have gotten much much better! I just can't wait to sleep on my tummy!!! Now that would be awesome!!!!!!

But, I was so happy to attend Church! Pain free and healthy! I'm almost done with all this and this journey has been long....from my mothers 12yr battle with Breast Cancer and also my grandmothers fight with breast cancer. To me loosing them both to it and now my fight to live...I'm glad to cut my chances and hopefully never put my family through it! I feel I'm wining the battle everyday! I will get to see things the 2 most important woman in my life never did! This is an honor and I plan to enjoy every part of it! Till God calls me! I will embrace this life he has set for me...as best I can!

Denise xoxo!
