Just got Breast Implants

i got mine last summer and went crazy not being able to exercise!! i tried to really stick to my 1200 calories and went for walks and did the excercise bike on a really low speed cuz your not supposed to get your heart rate up to high for a few weeks....i got back into running though 3.5 weeks later. you'll be just fine i promise!! p.s. dont you just love them!??

Why would you add weight to your body with implants?

Ouch! Jump rope? really? How soon was it I would think bouncing would hurt!!! How about a slow jog in place? Also take it easy you deserve and need it and to combat the munchies that may be caused by pain meds try pairing fiber with protein. For example whole grain toast or crackers and peanut butter. Good luck :flowerforyou: Feel better.

When I had mine done, I gained a ton of weight because I couldn't exercise and I ate a ton. =/ I had them done the end of April last year and by the time I could run again in June, I had shot up to almost 200 lbs =( I'm still on here trying to work it off, so be strong, eat good while you can't exercise, slowly ease back into exercise as your doctor allows, and you'll thank yourself later!! Enjoy em It's a whole new world. One year in and I wouldn't take it back FOR THE WORLD.

I have implants, I got them April of 09, April 22nd to be exact. I ride horses, so I was really afraid of getting them done and not being able to compete, but by the beginning of June I was able to compete in a 25 mile endurance ride with minimal discomfort.

I was told to stay off horses for a month. I had to stay out of work for a week, but it ended up being two weeks for me because I just couldn't do it [I worked at subway at the time,and it hurt just to cut bread!]

I gained a lot of weight. The pain killers stopped me up...it was a mess. But the weight does eventually come off over time if you just go back to eating healthy, especially once you're off the pain killers.

And yes they add weight to your body, but just do what I do...subtract the weight! The weight of both of mine together is 2.5lbs, so I subtract that off the top when I weigh myself. =D

You are also eating a lot because you're body is trying to heal. I've had two major surgeries, and each time I have CRAVED protein like no other. I finished a whole jar of peanut butter one day a week or so after my jaw surgery. Peanut butter and jelly sandwiches were pretty much all I wanted after I got my implants.

Yay. That is my reward to myself when I reach my goal. Maybe Yoga or pilates? I hope you heal fast and are back running around in no time.

i got mine 7 mths ago and you need to take it easy for around 6 weeks, depending on what placement you had (i had under), then ease into it gently, although i was back into walking (fast) around 4 weeks, but i healed well. You need to listen to your body.
When was your op?

Try to eat more protein for healing

Why would you add weight to your body with implants?

1, the weight of the implants.
2. Not being able to exercise for 6 weeks
3. constipation is a side effect of the GA and pain meds.

lol @ Suzy I think they were asking why she would get implants, which I agree with the other person that posted, it's none of their business, it's her body and her choice

I shall ask my sister and her friend for you!..oh and anyone wanting to get them-dont let a docotor talk you in to going bigger than you want-both my sister and her friend wish they had gone smaller.. and I would add dont let him over fill it either, becuase then it's unnaturally firm, which is weird to hug lol- but all and all everyone I know who has them is happy with them and glad they did it..

You ladies and your implants. When I hit 18 I was a 36DD, I got pregnant last June (miscarried 4 months in) but my chest size never went down. Now I'm in a 36F. I'll gladly give someone else half of my chest.

But in all seriousness, my mother got a reduction and went through the whole not being able to exercise, extreme pain, etc. She drank a lot of water, kept to her calories, and tried to be as active as she could SAFELY. If you gain a few pounds or lose tone, that's fine. You don't want to risk your health ever.

ME! MEE!! GIVE THEM TO ME!!!

Im sure you are not on bed rest while you are in recovery? If not, hit the pavement... Walk it out!

I'm real sorry about your miscarriage. I know how devastating it is, I had 3 of them! It gets earsier though and you will get preggo again. I was pregnant 6 times and I have 3 boys now, 18, 12 and 10. Good luck hon.
