Episode 2108 – On this Sunday School episode, Vinnie Tortorich and Gina Grad talk Gina’s breast reduction surgery, feeling comfortable in your body, healing, and more.
BREAST REDUCTION SURGERY
- Gina recently had surgery to reduce her breasts.
- She is a small woman (5’5″) and her breasts were very disproportionately large.
- This was a medical surgery, not a cosmetic one.
- Her insurance company covered it quite easily.
- Post-op, she has to wear certain clothes and follow certain protocols to ensure she heals up healthily.
- For the first few days, she felt pretty sick. Now, she’s feeling better but taking it easy.
- Mostly, she’s walking, and it feels good — including on a cellular level.
- Eating healthily tough because she is dealing with nausea, but she wants to get back on the wagon as soon as possible.
- Right now, she needs to eat what she can stomach, even if that’s rice or bread.
- For the first few days, she felt pretty sick. Now, she’s feeling better but taking it easy.
FEELING COMFORTABLE IN YOUR BODY
- Now, she feels fantastic and so much more proportional!
- It is tough on your body to have so much weight that is ‘non-functional’ insofar as it is not muscle.
- She didn’t want to do anything with impact because it was uncomfortable and would hurt her chest.
- This took about 4 lbs off.
- She hopes to be “streak-ready” soon, post-op and back on the NSNG® wagon.
