My breasts are me...they are a part of me and feel as if they have always been there.
I can do anything now, in terms of lifting and exercise, but I know I have to start off slow and steady.
I am about to go overseas to visit my family and can’t wait until they see me.
I bought myself a new bikini and the lady in the shop didn’t even notice.
She just went...”Wow, You look amazing in that.”
I had to tell her that I had my breasts done and she said she would never have known and she has been working in swimwear for 2o years.
She couldn’t believe how natural they looked and how perfectly proportioned they were.
This has been the best thing I have ever done for myself.
Having kids with the man I love has been the best thing I have ever done, but having my breasts done has been the best thing I have ever done for me!
I would not have done it differently, nor would I have gone to anyone else.

Dr. Rastogi is a genius! I feel like my life is different
now, better...
I am a much happier person than I was before. I was always happy and cheerful with other people, but I used to go home and think...”I wish I could be as positive about myself, as I am with other people:”
Now I am. I love myself and that is gold.

I am feeling over the moon and completely normal now.
I have started back at the gym this week and am taking it easy, so I’m proud of myself.
Doing lower body exercise again is great and I am pleased I haven’t lost much of my fitness at all.
I haven’t pushed myself, but sat on the bike for 3o mins today and felt great.
My breasts feel like they’ve completely settled in and are not really sensitive to touch at all anymore.
The best thing about it has been my confidence has been growing daily.
I now look at myself and think...”Hey, you look great!” And I never would have said that about myself before my BA.
My clothes look better on me and I feel more like me than ever before.
I thought I would look at myself and get all emotional and I do, but it’s fuelled with love and happiness.
None of my friends that I haven’t told can even tell that I’ve had it done.
They are so natural and one girlfriend who has been in beauty and fashion for years even commented that they are the best she’s ever seen!

I am officially allowed to start lower body exercise this week, but am not going to do it, I decide.
Even though I am pining to go to the gym, I purposely avoid it, as I know I’ll be tempted to over do it.
My breasts are feeling better and better, they are so beautiful and natural, I can’t believe it.
I have been working more and my movement is fine.There is still a slight sensitivity in my nipples, which
has been there from day 1, but that’s all apparently normal.
Who would have thought that breast surgery would be so easy?
I went bra shopping today and found some great bras from Loveable.
They are the nicest ones, as they are completely wire free, but still cute.
I’m very comfortable wearing one and was so excited in the store.
I have gone from a 10 (small) A, to a 12 C. My breasts look like a full B to small C, which is
exactly what I wanted, but they are measuring slightly bigger in a bra.
Every style of bra gives you a different size, but I’m stoked with being a C cup.
I remember now obsessing over sizes and searching endlessly on different sites to see what other people
did. I looked at more before and after boob shots that anyone, I think.
The only thing I can say about size is to just trust your surgeon. Dr. Rastogi is amazing and he knows exactly
what they are going to look like on you. I had trouble visualizing the implants held up to the outside of my body, but he knew exactly what they’d be. I would advise, try not to look at too many different sites.
What helped me the most, was to look at pictures on Google Images of women with similar builds to mine
and save those images to my phone. My breast inspirations came from Nicole Richie, Kate Hudson, Cameron Diaz, Brandi Glanville and Sarah Mutch (Guess and Men’s Style shots).
I’m over the moon with my size, because I trusted Dr Rastogi and he got it 100% right for me!

I feel awesome again and the tightness in my chest has subsided. The swelling has gone down quite a bit and my breasts seem to have settled in…they are liking their new home!
It has been good to take it easy this past week.
I've been sleeping really well and feel as though my breasts are really part of me. The funny thing is, even from the first day of my surgery, they have never felt like not mine. I was worried that they would feel like 2 foreign objects attached to me, but that hasn't been the case at all. I’m over the moon at how they look and can’t stop cupping my breasts…they feel so natural. I’m still wearing just a singlet top, but am able to start
wearing a soft bra…I may go bra shopping today?

It’s 2 weeks after my BA and I’m starting to feel more uncomfortable in my chest.
I think because I felt so amazing the first 2 weeks, I possibly over did things a little bit more than I should
have. In retrospect, I wish I hadn't accepted the few jobs I did, but I felt great and couldn't afford to turn down the work.
The good news is that exactly 14 days after my surgery, today, my tummy is back to normal
again…just as Dr. Rastogi said it would be. I am also relieved of my constipation, so I am feeling
much more like myself in that regard. The tightness in my chest tells me that I have over done things, so now I’m taking a step right back and am trying to relax more. If I can give any advice, it would be to really be
conscious of how great you feel, but purposely tell yourself not to go crazy and do too much. I was at a kid’s party, dropping one of my boys off and a friend of mine said…”Here can you hold my daughter” and gave her baby to me. I took the baby, otherwise she would have fallen, but was worried, as I know I’m not meant to lift anything over 8 kilograms for 6 weeks. I have been following the postoperative care sheet inside the info pack I was given, to a tee. In fact, I have even waited a bit longer than recommended, for each milestone you reach. So, for example, I waited for 10 days before sleeping on my
side, instead of 8. The baby I lifted was much more than 8 kilos, so I panicked. I rang Dr. Rastogi’s office and spoke to Helen, the nurse. She reassured me that so many of the patients have small children of there own, that it’s really hard not to pick them up. If something was wrong with my breasts, I’d know about it, she said. I feel better knowing this and take a mental note of being extra careful with myself as much as possible.

One week after surgery
May 9th, 2013
It’s been a week and I’m still completely amazed at
how great I feel. I have taken my kids to school and am starting to do a
bit more around the house. My husband has been doing most of the tidying up
and washing, which is fantastic! I've started cooking meals though and am well enough
to do light housework, folding laundry etc…
My breasts are still quite tight and I’m feeling no pain, but the tightness has increased, as I’m using my arms
a bit more. It’s hard to describe the feeling, but the easiest comparison is probably the feeling of working out too much where you feel sore, but a good sore. It’s not pain at all and still hasn't been.
My nipples are sensitive and I have lost some of the sensation, which Dr. Rastogi has assured me will
return in no time. I've been taking a few Panadols here and there to relieve some of that tight feeling, but otherwise, that’s it. The worst thing I’m feeling at the moment is constipation.
I haven’t been to the toilet in just over a week now and it’s bothering me. My stomach is quite swollen
too, which Dr. Rastogi said was completely normal. Don’t panic, I tell myself. I’m used to having less of a
tummy, so it’s a big confronting, but I’m confident that it will go down.
Dr. Rastogi said that it takes about 2 weeks for the swelling to disappear, so I’m just relying on the fact
that he is awesome and knows what he’s talking about! Other than the constipation and swelling in my
tummy, I’m great! I have even worked this week, but took it very easy.
I’m a hair and makeup artist, so I had to go really easy doing the model’s hair for a photo shoot.
It was at the beach, fortunately, so that fly-away, beachy hair worked.
No one noticed that I wasn't my normal self.
I still can’t believe I feel this great, one week out of surgery.My husband is loving my new breasts too, by the way. He thought I was lovely before, but am now even better. He can’t stop looking at me and I feel sexier and more beautiful than ever…it’s awesome!
