$900 made today while I rest & heal🥹✨

Today is post op day 3 after removing my implants! I’m up and moving a lot more!! The burning sensation that was driving me nuts has calmed down. The doctor said it’s the incision pain! I took an everything shower and my husband washed my hair! It was glorious!!!!!!!!! I stood in the mirror and took a long good look at my tiny lemon boobs and I’m happy. I can’t believe it’s done. I can’t believe how much I can breathe and I don’t have 4 pounds of tits sitting on my chest.

I’ve been sleeping propped up in bed because it’s more comfortable! 🫶🏻♥️

Also so very grateful for my passive income business that has kept our bills paid while I rest & heal.

... Read moreAfter undergoing surgery to remove breast implants, many individuals experience a variety of sentiments ranging from relief to newfound freedom. The healing process can indeed be challenging, but it's also a time for reflection and renewal. Many people encounter physical changes post-surgery; it's not just about aesthetics, but also about how much better they feel not carrying excess weight. It's important to prioritize self-care during this recovery phase, like sleeping comfortably and having support from loved ones. Passive income streams can be a lifesaver during recovery, allowing one to maintain financial health while focusing on personal wellness. Whether through affiliate marketing, online courses, or other forms of digital income, the ability to earn while resting helps alleviate financial stress. During this time, engaging in online communities about health, surgery recovery, and personal transformations can provide valuable support and encouragement. Many have found solace in sharing their experiences, which helps create a sense of belonging in their journeys toward complete wellness.

How are you feeling now? What doctor did you see? I’ve had mine for 16 years and have all the symptoms of BII. Trying to find a Dr that specializes in explants and lifts/reconstruction. I’m so worried they will look bad! Also, the link in your bio doesn’t seem to be working 😭

They don’t want you to heal
Healing doesn’t always look soft. Sometimes it looks like walking away from what you once begged to stay. It looks like setting boundaries with a shaking voice. It looks like saying no — even when it makes people uncomfortable. They don’t want you to heal because healed women can’t be control
