I was DX in December 2010 and since then I have found I have done things I would have NEVER guessed I would have done in my lifetime (because of BC).  Here are the one's I can think of:

Given my phone number and address to people I met online (gals from here of course!)

Gotten into a car with people I met online (isn't that what we tell kids NOT to do??? LOL!)

Showed women my foobs in a bathroom stall at a restaurant - more than once

Let my BFF and sister feel up my new boobs

Texted my sister a photo of my new nipples

Send photos of my foobs to someone online that was not my husband

Post photos of my boobs on the internet

Said to a BC friend "feel my nipple...it's squishy"

By far the oddest thing I did was actually measure my nipples (based on people measuring nips and posting size on here)

Who would have thought?

What strange and funny things have you done since DX?  Just curious.  BC has brought about so many changes in my life.....never thought I would lift up my top and say "wanna see?"  LOL!

    mdg - love it !  Great idea you had. I get my massages in very often while driving, I occasionally get some pretty strange looks.  I too never dreamed I would use handicap stalls for show and tell w/ the foobs.  One time I told another BC friend when I met her for lunch that I was wearing a black lace bra just for her...and I was, she is bra obsessed !  Asking friends which bra their wore.

    Carrying around a typed up printed out list of surgery/procedure dates and medicines/supplements with me in my wallet.  Never know when I might need that medical info these days.

    Using a level to see if my boobs were even?

    Balancing a water bottle on my TE?

    Telling a BC friend I found a bra in her size, trying it on, texting her a photo and then mailing the bra to her?

    Touching someone's squishy nipple?

    I massage my implants in the car at red lights!  Just hope no one is looking.

    I have also showed strangers my implants in the ladies room, and showed my trainer at the gym my new tattoos.

    Today at the grocery store they asked me if I wanted to donate to cancer society, poor girl, told her NO, already gave a "full head of hair and two boobs".
