AceShowbiz - Genevieve Padalecki is another public figure to have her breast implants removed. The "Supernatural" alum explained the reason behind her decision when appearing on the "Bathroom Chronicles" podcast.
According to the 42-year-old, she "had this shift" in her body after she turned 40. She added, "On one hand, you don't care what anyone thinks, but you're like, 'I miss what I used to look like a bit.' "
"I wanted to just build upon my appearance and just feel good, and I got consults to get breast implants," the wife of Jared Padalecki continued. Noting that she had "many, many consults" before finally making the decision, she further elaborated, "I want to look good for me. I want to experience what that feels like and what that looks like."
Though one doctor warned against it, it didn't stop her. "I went back and forth, and then finally decided I wanted to do it," she shared. "I got breast implants done a year and a half ago and I felt great. I felt very sexy. They were the exact same size as my breast used to be before breastfeeding, so it didn't feel that different."
However, the mom of three "noticed some changes in my body that didn't feel quite right" about six to eight months later. "I'm a big runner. I love to run. I love exercising. It's something that I've done my whole life to cope and deal with stress," she said.
"I noticed that when I would get on the treadmill or I'd go outside and I would jog, I couldn't do it for more than two or three miles before my body would just be like, 'No, we're done,' " Genevieve recalled. "That was super weird to me. But I was also like well, 'Maybe I'm tired today. I have three kids, my husband works like crazy hours.' I'm not even thinking it correlates."
"I started getting some weird pains in my joints and I would wake up with joint pain where I would like flex my fingers and they would hurt," she detailed more. "I could power through these symptoms, but it was enough where when I went to my checkup with my doctor."
During the checkup, Genevieve eventually earned that her lymph nodes were really inflamed. "I didn't feel sick, but my body was just starting to feel really inflamed and it just didn't feel right," she stated. "I wanted to get back to running, which I something that's really important to me and I didn't want to get to a place where it got worse... So I spoke with a couple of doctors and I ended up just taking them out."
