Okay, ladies and gents and tweeps...
I tweeted today about telling a couple of girlfriends about "breast eggs." The more unfortunate of us souls have them, but I no longer do, thanks to my recent plastic surgery, of which I've already waayyyy overshared. (Teh internets, you is my diary!)
Case in point: Halle Berry (pic from here). See 'em? See the breast eggs?!
No? Well, then, do let me illustrate. The day before my surgery, I reported to my butcher's doctor's office so he could use my tits as his new coloring book. In purple indelible marker, he colored in the areas he'd be lipo'ing, dotted reference points, and drew lines where he'd be slicing.
But when I showed up for my slaughter, he took one look at my purple chest and said, "Oh, let me add one more thing... da da da... Yeah. See those? Those are what we call breast eggs."
I looked down, and this is what he'd done:

So, there ya have it: breast eggs. I've also seen 'em called armpit sandwiches. And I don't have 'em anymore, woohoo!
And as my karmic penance for pointing out poor Halle's breast eggs, here's what some of you elves have been asking for in private (sneaky pervs, the lot of you), a before/after pic:

P.S. Scary how much living in a body so long affects your self-image. When the after pic was taken, I looked at it and said, "Wait, why does my head look so big?!"
Oh. Right. Proportions and stuff.

You look mar-velous!
You're probably too young to get the old SNL reference, so I'll put it another way: nice rack!

I don't think I was effusive enough when we chatted earlier - DAMN girl. Rock it! You look stunning and you always have looked stunning. This newest transformation is coming from within and that's always wonderful to see!

Woo-hoo!

Btw, would you believe I actually saw a DC police officer do that in a police cruiser? Geesh.

What a transformation! Thanks for sharing! I don't know if you noticed or not but your posture has greatly improved! In the old pic, you are slumped forward and in the new pic, you have your shoulders thrown back. Woohoo!
