My recovery is going great. My PS is awesome - by the time the swelling is gone and everthing settles I should be back where I started at a full C (sometimes D - depending on brand) I just won't have to pincurl them up. At first I just wanted the lift without the implants. But the PS explained that first, they would be smaller due to the tissue/skin removal required for the lift and second, no matter how much they are lifted, there would not be fullness in the upper part of the breast. That can only be accomplished with implants. She allowed me to select between saline and silicone and we discussed size, body proportions and my desired outcome. In the end I selected silicone (actually my husband selected - he liked the feel of them and they do seem to be "sturdier") and told her I wanted to be a "C" since I am so tall and have very broad shoulders. So far, I am thrilled with the result. They are not so big that they look unnatural. For me the girls took priority over thighs. I don't wear shorts that much. When I wear dresses I wear pantyhose that get rid of the sagging thighs. But I have always worn V-neck styles and needed the volume I was used to to make my clothes fit the way I like. You know, it is perfectly okay to shop for a PS. Doctors are after all YOUR employee. You do the hiring and the firing. My PS came highly recommended by the gals on my OH Indiana site. You might try asking some gals in your home state for their recommendations. Best wishes, Annette

Way to go!!!! Enjoy yourself!

(((((HUGS, LISA))))) You will be there soon. I wasn't sure when to call for PS. I asked my WL surgeon and he told me to wait until I maintained for 18 mos. I called the PS and they said I had to maintain for 3 mos, but could schedule my consult before now to discuss my options. I have lost about 120 pounds since October. I NEVER thought I would be where I am right now. Heck, before the surgery, I really didn't think much about PS, now I feel it is a must for me. I know how you feel about hating the way it looks now. You can do it!!!! You can get off those last 30 pounds and get your PS scheduled. We all had different amounts to lose and have lost at different rates. Look at how far you have come in the past 10 mos and how much BETTER you look now than you did this time last year. Hang in there, sweetie!!! Hugs, Tabby

Well done you! I hope it's a good experience for you in every way! Lisa

OH, Holly...so sorry to hear that you are having this problem. I know my 16 yr old neice that weighs like 115 has this problem. She has tried the Secret Clinical, the Certain Deodorant and says she wishes she could get botox treatments to her pits, which, I guess it supposed to help. Hope your dr can give you some advice or direction on how to fix this. Hugs, Tabby
