anything. That’s why I honestly don’t care what people’s
negative opinions are anymore. Since my career will be in
tness, I also want to be able to throw on any sports bra and
not worry about it having padded inserts and since I worked
hard for the body I wanted and have no power to make my
boobs bigger naturally, then why not get a boob job if it makes
me happy?
I learned that, if someone is doing something you don’t agree
with and it doesn’t effect your life in any way or endangers
their life, then you have no right to judge them. Now people
are going to say “well you are putting your health at risk by
getting a BA.” I can drop dead right now, get in a car accident
tomorrow, get murdered, etc. Does that mean I shouldn’t
leave my bed and live my life because something bad MIGHT
happen? NO. I believe when your time is ready it will happen
no matter where you are or what you’re doing. Anyone
should also be smart about it and do their research before
and make sure they have a very good PS who cares about
your safety before anything anyways. Now do I agree with
someone getting a cosmetic procedure because they want to
look like someone they idol or they don’t have self love and
think changing their appearance will make them happy when it
actually wont? No, it does not and nor does it effect my life in
any way, and thats why I don’t judge them. If something makes
you truly happy then do it! Life is too short to be miserable. If
you honestly can’t sleep at night because someone got a boob
job then you need to reevaluate yourself because the real
problem is with you.
I feel so relieved just getting my thoughts about this out even if
no one reads this. Thank you for reading this far. I hope it helps
some girls deal with negative comments differently. I would
love to know if anyone else feels the same way?
FITNESS - POST OP
OCTOBER 3, 2013 • 12 DAYS PRE-OP
After reading so many reviews from girls on here, I noticed
everyone is stressing about their weight they gained after
surgery or can’t wait to get back to exercising...which is totally
understandable. But you have to be smart about recovery and
don’t rush things. When you get breast implants, your body
doesn’t know what you just did, and takes it as an injury. The
body instantly goes into recovery mode and starts immediately
trying to repair itself. Your body reproduces completely new
cells that make up your body every few months so I would
suggest trying to eat more nutritious foods that way it will
help speed up recovery (allowing you to be able to work out
harder, sooner). Most importantly listen to your PS’s advice on
when to start working out and how hard. I wouldn’t weigh
yourself right after surgery because your body will hold a lot of
water weight for a while and if you see you gained 10 pounds
or so in a day or 2, that will just stress you out even more and
you need to focus on recovery.
Just let your body go through the motions. It knows what it
needs to do and if it wants to hold water for a little or makes
you bloated, don’t stress! Since you can not work out for a few
weeks, the best thing you can do is have your diet in check.
That will prevent you from gaining weight. Starving yourself will
not make you skinnier and it is awful for your body. Your body
needs food to fuel itself. It will be working extra hard repairing
itself so healthy foods are the best thing for it. If the body does
not have any food in the system, it will turn to your muscles for
energy and that is very bad. Also the less muscle you have, the
less calories your body burns by just being alive. Muscle is very
important to the body! If you do nd that you did gain a few
pounds over the month or two from not being as active, don’t
worry about it. It is better to be safe and not exercise too
soon and injure yourself or your implants, putting you out of
the gym even longer and more problems! You can always burn
those extra few pounds off once you’re all healed up anyways!
If you’re getting your BA within the next few months you’re in
luck because you can always cover your body up with extra
layers since it will be colder out anyways. :)
I lift pretty heavy weights and I have decided that I will no
longer include a chest day in my routine. Yes, it is important to
work out your pec muscles to prevent injury, but when you do
other upper body exercises like bicep, tricep, etc. your chest
muscle is the secondary muscle that is getting worked out so
it’s not being neglected. When you do start to do upper body
again, I would start with light weights and add more until you
are comfortable with it. If you feel any pain at all from your
implants. STOP. Don’t force anything that doesn’t feel right.
Another tip I recommend is to drink plenty of water pre- and
post-OP. The extra water pre-op will help hydrate your skin,
making it more expandable for the implants. Post op it will
help a lot keeping the bloating down and ushing out toxins.
I already got my PS’s advice on working out. Within 4-6 weeks
I can start working out my upper body again. I plan on taking
long walks after the rst week just to get my blood owing
and since I go crazy if I can’t work out. If i feel like I have
enough strength I am going to start lightly training my lower
body in week 2 but probably closer to week 3.
