This is me by Angie

Monogramming obsessed, fun loving mumma

Hi I’m Angie,
I started this page as a side hustle for my monogramming business. I started in October 2019 and have decided to put it on simmer as of October 2021.

I found a gap in the market for portable travel organisers and personalising them with monogramming. Yes, there are lots of big companies that do this but my products were slightly different and had a range of different colours.

My faves were the watch case and petit Jewellery storage. I’m still happy to take orders if you use my PayPal link I can do special orders for anything!

For now I’m just focusing on me, my home and family.. #movinginward ? Something like that!

I’m here if you need just sing and I’ll come!

Do you prefer to pack it heavy or light up top?

Well I chose light… what am I talking about?

In July 2021 I decided that I couldn’t take the headaches, neck pain, shoulder pain, body image negativity & set backs with gym injuries..

So, I made the appointment for a breast surgeon.. to have a reduction.. this girl was packing heavy with a H cup.. cue friends.. “how did you fit all that in there” me: like a suitcase.. tight lol

Fast forward to Feb 2022 my appointment was up.. but so was 🦠 so our lovely Premier decided that he would hold elective surgery.. why? when this was in a private hospital with a specialist surgeon? Now the pressure was on to not catch 🦠.. so I isolated.. for a month!

New 🗓 was now March! I got this.. so I kept to myself, took to my naturopath and got my immune system right up with vitamins C, D, Zinc and NAC to stay healthy!

The day had come.. I was more nervous about testing positive to 🦠 .. even though I had NO symptoms.. hurdle 1 passed! I was NEGATIVE 🥳

Surrounded by amazing nurses, an anesthetist that understood my dislike for IVs and placed it in the best spot and an amazing surgeon that understood my pain.. “you poor girl.. I think we’ll take you down to a C/D cup”.. 😱 the excitement was real!

Three hours later, lots of strong drugs and consecutive anti nausea drugs I was out and into my room..with my two little drains on each sides of my boobies!

Aside from messaging everyone drunk like texts.. I was good.. I was taken care of and I got some rest!

Next day was bra day with my new teenage boobs.. not a bra like you think but a front clip on, like crop top that’s my new BFF for the next 3 months until I can get some sexy something 20s bras!

That’s right this lovely lady came to the hospital and fitted me.. she is amazing .. she helps post breast cancer patients and women like me.. #blessed

.. but cue dramatic music.. two days later.. I get a temp.. 🦠 Covid positive.. lucky because I was hanging out at the hospital because all my fam and support network had or just got 🦠.. off I went home !

So I go home to the 🦠 house.. the pain meds are flowing, keeping up my vitamins (c,d, zinc, probiotic (post op) and echinacea) and from the guidance of a fellow post op woman I was having peach, pineapple and kiwi fruit smoothies that I had pre made.. (go organised me) to help my bowels (TMI I know, but that’s why we here)

Three weeks on .. these are my tips..

☆ DO IT, YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT
☆ Rest .. I can’t stress this enough .. you might think your good but you get tired and sore
☆ Do not pop a stitch! You don’t want this! Touch wood I haven’t
☆ Explain what you need to your support person and make sure they can help you shower.. which you can’t shower for two weeks just a wipe down not a proper shower
☆ Keep your new bras on for as long as they say! You can effect the shape of your new kit
☆ Get fresh air and go for slow walks.. it’s the best for your mental health
☆ Strataderm - 4 weeks post op to heal your scars (verdicts still out on that until my 4 week mark)
☆ Have a plan for your post op goals.. mines for try and stay healthy and plan my fitness goals.. not for aesthetics .. for me.. to feel good for me!

Any questions.. just ask.. I have no regrets and considering I got 🦠 during recovery.. I was beyond good!

Before and after shot coming 🔜 🍿😳
