Today marks 2 weeks until the procedure. I'm trying to maintain a healthy weight (3 lbs overweight LOL) and be active. So, when I drop off my daughter at school, I go walking at a local park. I just started this last week monday (my boyfriend's mother passed a way last thursday, so it I missed out on my morning walks). I was able to return to my usual morning today and in the car ride to the park, I'm getting anxious knowing that I have 2 more weeks before my boobs are smaller.

I've been big. Always top heavy. I'm 23 years old, 4'9'' and 123lbs. Very petite but my boobs are now at 34DDD/E. After having my daughter (now she's 3) my boobs has taken a lot on my body. Back pains, aches, neck stiffness, etc. I'm sure you all know what I'm talking about. Ideally, I would like to be a B. My boyfriend would like me to be a C/D. But I worry about the future. Weight gains. Pregnancy. Boobs getting bigger AGAIN. That's the main reason why I'm taking walks, jogging, and watching why I'm eating. I should worry much about what's gonna happen in the future but I'm those type of people that needs to be in control.

Good luck to you , I'm 4 weeks out and know I'm going to be much happier , they say I'll be a C/D at the moment it seems small but when you are so big it's hard to adjust . You will love it .and I think you are right to go a bot smaller because you are young and would like more kids ( that would worry me ) but you are doing the right thing . Good luck to you .

Congrats on your upcoming surgery (I'm three weeks out as of yesterday)! As far as the size, you should go with what makes your comfortable and what fits your frame. As you said, you do have the future to worry about (and as much as they may want to, no man can carry them around for you). If you go with a D, you may have to do this all over again later! Without knowing anything else about you other than your height/weight, I imagine a B would be perfect!

Good luck! Hope everything goes well for you! What does your PS say about the size he feels he can take you to?

He said a good 'handful'. Literally. Then he changed his answer to a C

I will tell you this, that I also watched what I ate for a few weeks before surgery, and now after it. The biggest thing that has helped (and has also been the hardest) is going low sodium. You really shouldnt have more than 2000mg a day, and you would be surprised how much is in foods like milk and bread.
But with low sodium, I have next to no swelling, even only a few days post. And I lost ten pounds just from losing excess water that my body was holding with all that salt.

Good luck! You are gonna love it. As a fellow petite person, it is the best thing I have ever done for myself.

It's so hard to watch what I'm eating. I hoping this will motive me to work harder physically since my tatas won't be in the way.

Tomorrow and it will be a week before its MY turn. Good thing is that PS up my schedule time from 1:15 to 11:15. My biggest fear is avoiding food and starving. So these few hours would be beneficial.

I also called my job to get family medical leave application so I can be paid for those to weeks. I'm working this WHOLE week but I'll be off Friday so I'll do my cleaning and shopping for anything else I may need. Plus I ordered that herbal supplement to reduce bruising and swelling.

While doing laundry today, I packed up my bras into a bag. I'm giving them to my sister. She's also top heavy and a few inches taller. Packing up my bras was making me realize how fast my surgery date is approaching. 6 more days!

I really wanteda little lipo on my sides but I would have to pay out of pocket. I can't afford that right now as a single mother. Plus, school is right around the corner and still haven't got my books/sluppies. That's my on my to-do list before work tomorrow. Plus the PS RN said I would need to consult with PS and I may have to re schedule this procedure. Per my insurance company, I need to have this down by September 13. Again, school. I'm hoping the PS will go about himself and do it. But regardless, 6 days to go!!!!!
