Update 5 weeks out!

So I am just about 5 weeks out from Surgery and I am feeling pretty good, still no migraines and my back feels better than it ever has!  Still sore (mostly at the breast-line), but feeling so much better than a few days out from surgery.  My breasts are finally no longer bruised and look like I ran into a sea of knives.

I also went back to work this week!  WOW now I know why my surgeon recommended that I go back to work mid-week.  As a person that went from sitting on my butt for 4 weeks recovering from surgery to then having to walk a quarter mile just to get from my car to the office and then work throughout the day it's been very tiring.  I went from maybe 2,000 steps a day back up to 10,000 steps overnight!

I am starting to get used to the smaller breasts and actually like them.  I know I still have a long way to go before the final product, but I am very happy right now!  I highly recommend the surgery to anyone that is contemplating having it done.  Thankfully insurance paid for part and our out of pocket was less than $2,000. But again, well worth the money!
