Feeling good!!

So I'm day 2 post op (if op day is Day 0) and I have to say I'm feeling surprisingly good! Went for a half hour walk yesterday evening with my OH and really enjoyed it, and now I'm looking forward to going out for another walk again later. I've been drinking loads of water, protein, veg and fruit and alternating between resting and walking around my house.

Don't get me wrong I'm slightly achey but nothing that I can't cope with, and I really thought I'd feel a lot worse than I do. I think I was preparing for the worst so have just been pleasantly surprised! Plus I'm loving my new boobies, I think they're just the right size for what I wanted but looking forward to seeing them more when I have the tape etc taken off on Wednesday. At the moment it's hard to see them fully as they are very strapped down! Will set up a picture trail soon.

A happy posting from a happy me! :ok:

Glad to hear all is going well :)

I have found walking is really helping - I am 4 days post op.

Just been setting up my picture trail - look forward to seeing yours.

Aww that's absolutely wonderful, babe!! I'm so pleased for you and I'm amazed at how well you're coping! I couldn't go out for even a 20 minute walk until about 2 weeks post op so you're doig very well! It sounds like you really know what to do to keep yourself in tip top health. Your diet and rest/slight exercise routine sounds spot on! Just remember the very important fact that you have just had an op though so even if you do feel up to doing certain tasks, make sure you don't overdo it!! Try to limit your arm movement as much as possible as you want to keep those new babies of yours entirely still and unharmed or strained.

Very happy to hear you're buzzing over your new boobs!! I bet you can't wait until wednesday!! Good luck, honey! I hope your boobs are perfect when you finally see them au naturale!!!

Take care, lovely xxxxx

Glad you're feeling well Hun, alternating between rest and moving around is great for recovery.
Just remeber not to over do anything because you're feeling great and also at around day 3 swelling can start to kick in and you may feel a bit more swollen and Achey.

Glad all is well though :ok:
