So here's the thing, okay maybe two things...

Hi Friends,

       I am so so glad you are back once again to read my blog, I wouldn't write it if it weren't for all the readers... I have had over 600 blog views in the last few months, which may not seem like much, but it means my crazy story is reaching more people.

    So here's the thing, if you have been following my blog, you know that during my workouts I had one , okay two, major problems in my way... like RIGHT in my way. It caused a major amount of back pain and the money I was spending the keep these issues up was getting terrible. But, great news! The dr approved to reduce the size of these issues in order to keep me happy, healthy, and pain free so I can continue on my fitness journey comfortably! I know you are dying to know what I am talking about, unless you already figured it out! I have had a breast REDUCTION!

On June 19th I had the procedure done, and now I am three weeks in recovery. I have been cleared to walk and do light jogging for the past week, but I am DYING to get back into my BEAST MODE workouts! As I told you in the last blog post, I purchased the new T25 program (25 minutes a day 5 days a week) and it is sitting on my shelf taunting me. I go back in a couple of weeks to make sure I am healing well and hopefully he will let me get started! But, back to the recovery process...



Before the procedure I was a size 38 dd, sometimes I could fit into a 38 d. The dr said the total weight on my chest was around 35-40 pounds. That is what was bouncing around during my intense Insanity workouts. Back pain was through the roof! I had the surgery and have been extremely swollen and bruised ever since, can't even get sweaty without swelling up. I hope this part passes soon because I am still the almost the same bra size as when I started. The dr says it is normal and ten weeks from the surgery date I should be feeling much better, ten weeks! That is a long time and I am counting down the days. Until then I will be walking and jogging everyday and dabbling in some yoga. I will keep you posted when more comes of this breast of a tale... I made a funny. ;)

I will still be posting here, I have made a commitment to post once a week from now on. I have a few Scarlett adventures that need to be published so keep checking back! Comment Comment Comment! I love hearing feedback!


                              Live your life to make YOU happy... after all it is all about you.
