camiville for me!

Hi All! I had a right mast. and wear my pros. nearly every day! It did take a while to get used to it, but now that I have I really forget about it. I bought a bunch of those really cheap bright colored camisoles from Walmart, Dress Barn, etc. and wear the prost. inside with no pocket, etc. It stays in place next to my skin because of the temperature here being so warm most of the time. I tried to get the surgeon to do both sides, but he didn't want me to do that. I kinda wish that I had fought for it, because it would have been so much easier to go without prost. on the days I wanted to be super comfy! But, I'm pleased with the Amoena pros. I wear and the natural way it looks! I don't wear the same clothes as I used to, but close. I do wear the prost. in the pocket bras sometimes, but don't find that as comfortable as the camis! I guess you just get used to about anything! Love to all, ma
