Don't say I don't love you. It was minus 400 degrees here today and I took off all my clothes to take nekkid pics for YOU!
Goodness, after all the hype, I hope you aren't disappointed. It is too early to tell what they will look like as they still have to 'drop and fluff', which is a technical term for settle in, I suppose. I am certainly not disappointed, they have turned out exactly as I wanted them. Not too big yet big enough. I love my boobs and even though I totally and utterly underestimated the recovery process (it has really knocked me), I would do it again in a heartbeat. My plastic surgeon has done a great job, I'm thrilled. I just should have taken at least a week off and not only two days. I am an asshole. A perky asshole.
Quality of the pics is terrible, sorry. Plus the angle is crappy and doesn't show the new boobs off to their full potential. It is your fault. I wanted to wait until the weekend when Marko could take the pics, but you'll have to make do with these grainy images. (I've 'doctored' the image slightly to hide my tattoo that I have on my one boob. Somehow having my boobs easily ID'ed through the tattoo puts me off. Warped sense of modesty*. Don't mind my nekkid boobs being out on the net as long as they aren't easily identified as mine)
So, enough of the blah blah boobpaste - here are the pics, 2 weeks post surgery:
And just in case you thought they didn't look that much bigger
Those are pretty big boobies there! The bikini doesn't fit any more and doesn't do the boobs any justice. They look fantastic naked. But you'll just have to take my word for that.
* Ok, how ironic is this. I was busy typing up this post and for the life of me, I couldn't think of the word for 'modesty'. I had to find someone reasonably intelligent online and ask them. Luckily Amy was online (as was L but she ignored me at first. She's like that, especially now that is all important and has a J O B. Cow.) I asked them "whats that word again, the one for when you are shy about nudity and stuff". Hahaha! That really amused me. That I couldn't think of the word. Modesty? What's that? I said I would send them some link love for their impromptu Grammar 101 lesson. Once you've finished ogling my breasts, go have a little squiz at their blogs.














delicious...can I say that? Well they are and I am bloody jealous!!!

Hey friend, they look great and that is from a man's point of view.
Posted by: Marius | 06 September 2007 at 07:19 AM
Eek! Doing that Scarlet thing again where I pretend that people I actually know in real life aren't reading this blog. Now I have to look Marius in the eye at work, knowing he has seen pics of my boobs. Oh well dear Marius, thanks for the compliment. Jy is n gooie maatjie.

Nice tits. Er...was that rude? ;)

Those are huge!! What are you going to do with them???? (smile)
Nice boobies, Tertia!!
Posted by: Coral | 06 September 2007 at 07:43 AM
Wow, they look GREAT. I wish I could just add a nozzle to mine and blow them up with some air. They're big enough, but they need some filling!
Posted by: margalit | 06 September 2007 at 07:45 AM
Lookin' good, Tertia!
Posted by: janet | 06 September 2007 at 07:52 AM

Nice rack! Well done, and worth the effort.
Posted by: KC | 06 September 2007 at 10:33 AM
well done - i'm totally having mine done when i'm finished having kids.. as a daily lurker, i have been really excited at the prospect of introducing myself to you at the Jhb Malka Ella dins end Oct - upfront apologies for perhaps initially not being able to look you straight in the eye :-)
Posted by: kellyb | 06 September 2007 at 11:42 AM
Wow, they look awesome! May I ask... what are the scars like? I don't anticipate seeing pics (unless, perhaps, Marko would allow you to email some privately, to a potential augmentation candidate?), but am curious of the scar size and placement.
I've heard before that implants need to be "massaged" daily, to keep scar tissue from forming inside. Is that true? Will you have followup appts with your surgeon, to be sure all is going as planned?
Thanks for sharing this with us, T! You look FABULOUS!
Posted by: Woody's Girl | 06 September 2007 at 01:17 PM
wow.
I guess I didn't realize how small you were before - and NOW they seem perfectly reasonable...one hardly see's well done boobs. They look like the perfect size for you!
Posted by: blackbird | 06 September 2007 at 01:55 PM
Where's the before before picture of when you were younger and hadn't yet undergone breast reduction? How does your current size compare to what you had when you were a teenager?
Posted by: Orange | 06 September 2007 at 02:00 PM
Now I can rest. I've seen the boob pics.
smooch (on the cheek!)
Posted by: Dani | 06 September 2007 at 02:26 PM
Mmmh, jealous now!
Will have to re do mine at some point. Size does matter after all!
Posted by: Sister Jealous Mel | 06 September 2007 at 02:33 PM
Ok, I completely stayed out of the fray when the whole "Should you have plastic surgery" thing blew up. But I have to say, you look fantastic. I want new boobies too!!!
Posted by: Jennifer | 06 September 2007 at 02:57 PM
You have some pretty impressive-looking cleavage there, girl. The girls look great!
Posted by: sheilah | 06 September 2007 at 03:10 PM

EXCELLENT! They look great - congratulations!
Posted by: Kirsten | 06 September 2007 at 03:37 PM
Absolutely fab! Now for the good part - the shopping!! :))
Posted by: Jenty | 06 September 2007 at 03:48 PM
I like Margalit's idea of the nozzle for myself. :-)
They look fab, indeed. And I was also wondering about the massage and scarring part... I'm up for the opposite operation - a reduction, but the whole idea of scarred boobies scares me enough to allow my back to continue screaming in agony. LOL
Posted by: Heather | 06 September 2007 at 04:09 PM
You are going to look so hot in halter tops, esp. if those new puppies are firm enough to let you go braless and backless. I am so jealous of the fun you're going to have shopping for new clothes to show off the new cleavage!
Posted by: Summer | 06 September 2007 at 04:10 PM
My husband bought me your book and knows that I read your blog. Told him you had a boob job. Just showed hime the pics. His response:"Shit!".
EK dink ook jy lyk baie sexy en natuurlik. Nie phony soos party girls op die tv nie. Geluk met die resultate.
Posted by: Lena | 06 September 2007 at 04:19 PM
great cleavage. boobs - wow!! and yes, you are ONLY allowed to wear v-neck tops at all times - no more t-shirts, no more crew necks, ONLY v necks, ok? do tell Marko your friends in the computer authorized a shopping spree.
congrats!!!
Posted by: jb | 06 September 2007 at 04:19 PM
Ok...you officially have the perfect cleavage. I am so sinfully jealous right now.
AWESOME!

They look great Tertia, they really do. They're not just a nice size and shape, but they also seem really really natural. (Nothing like Posh's, if you know what I mean.) If you hadn't disclosed the fact that you'd had surgery, I never would have guessed in a million years! Your surgeon did a really great job!
Posted by: victoria | 06 September 2007 at 06:24 PM
They look bloody fantastic. I am truly very jealous!
Posted by: Debbie in the UK | 06 September 2007 at 06:28 PM
They look great! :) Give them a couple of months and they will look even better - as crazy as that sounds!
Congrats!

BTW, can't "see" the links in your new format ... have to use the cursor and guess where they are - just an FYI.

Boobalicious! They look great.
Posted by: Jaine | 06 September 2007 at 08:17 PM
Fantasties!
That's quite a change, and yet they definitely don't look too big.
What a clever doc!

So, what lucky jerks have this gene? I certainly don't. I apparently have the "short and stout" gene though (so tip me over and pour me out).

Awesome! I want some toooooooo! They do look quite natural, yet luscious. Congrats on your newfound booby happines.

Very pretty boobies. But what about before shots?
Posted by: Sarah | 07 September 2007 at 03:56 PM
Woooo! Hubba hubba! Seriously, they look fabulous, and I am so glad to see that you're so pleased with them! (Can I be jealous, though? I'd love to be that happy with my boobs, but it's not meant to be at the moment.)
Posted by: Becky from the Bayou | 07 September 2007 at 07:40 PM

Posted by: Mary | 08 September 2007 at 05:19 AM
They look fabulous!
I had an abdominoplasty and BA a year and a half ago and it was one of the best things I've ever done for myself. I was tired of my butt and thighs making me look disproportionate...I was a 36AA after the two kids. So, I am now a 36D and when I need them changed out, I'll go bigger. I look good in cute tops and for the first time ever I have boobs. It's awesome.
I was walking a week after the surgery (I went to work the following day because I'm a stubborn ass, my doc would have killed me) and back to running 3 weeks post op. However, I bust my ass and made sure I was in the best physical condition in my life before they cut me open. So, while I didn't find recovery all that hard (boobs were hardly a pain compared to the tummy tuck), I think it was because I was in excellent shape.
Anyway, congrats! I got mine done for ME and haven't been sorry about them one bit. No one could talk me out of it. Damn glad I did it!

To quote Kath and Kim "Look at me! I'm a hornbag!
Posted by: andrea | 08 September 2007 at 06:25 AM
Woo Hoo! Finally! The first two pictures I couldn't totally see how big they are now (could see a difference before and after, but not the overall effect), but that last picture is great. They look spectaculah! Very happy for you. But the more important question is how happy is Marko?? =)
Posted by: Rebekah | 08 September 2007 at 09:25 PM
wow t! you look totally fabulous!!!
Posted by: angel | 08 September 2007 at 09:41 PM
Jesus Christ Tertia. I leave you for a year and check back and your kids can talk. I leave you for another year and pop back to check on you, and you've bought yourself some new body parts! How funny are you?
I'm a 10A in the boob department and I'm the only one of my flat chested friends who have not had a boob job, and I don't intend to, because my boobs are perfectly fine.
But another friend said, "yeah, well they're fine NOW, just wait until you breastfeed 2 kids!". Haha, good point.
Hope you're enjoying them. I can't think of anything more gross than living with a foreign object stuck inside my skin, but I don't mind them on other people. They can look quite good when the doctor doesn't make you look like that dumb slut Jordan. :-)
I bet you're going to be walking around the house in bikinis a whole lot more now.
Anyway, hope you're well, just wanted to drop in and say hi.
Posted by: Neety | 09 September 2007 at 04:27 AM
Good for you! They look fantastic and I'm happy for you!
Posted by: Caroline | 09 September 2007 at 09:24 AM
Good for you! I know you agonized over the decision, but I've gotta say, it was the right one. Your new girls look fantastic ~ the perfect size and shape for your body. :)
I just wish I had the guts for the tummy tuck and boob lift...I hate surgery, though, and won't do any unless it becomes medically necessary.
So...I'll just live vicariously through you! :)
Posted by: Kim | 10 September 2007 at 09:17 AM
T- Love the ta-ta's ! Your doc did a FANTASTIC job. Will have to save your docs website for future reference-hee hee!
