Breast Reduction - Realistic Breast Size
I have size 40 DDD breast. I am 5'6 and 180 lbs. I know I am overweight and have started exercising 5 times a week and completely changed my diet. I have a consultation with a surgeon and was wondering what a realistic breast size would be for me. I was think a med to full C. My goal weight is to be 140 again. I hope to be close to that weight at surgery time. Is that a realistic size for my body with the information I provided above?
