I'm due to have a reduction and lift on the 17 th I know I'm doing the right thing , I'm a 14 GG/H and I'm thinking about going to a 14 D/ DD I love my boobs just not the saggy part lol , I'm worried I'll be to small after , and I would like to loose weight , about 15 kgs now I know you should be at or near your goal weight when doing this but if I wait I'll never do it , so I'm worried my boobs will get smaller if I loose weight even though that has never happened . Thanks xx

It's been 13 weeks and I've never felt better , this was the best thing I've ever done . Good luck to you all that are thinking about it ...

So it's been about 16 weeks now and I feel fantastic , I still get the odd sharp pain where the nerves are sparking but that's it , I almost have forgotten what it was like to have big boobs . When I look back at my before phones I just think .... WHY did I wait so long , that looks so uncumftable and then I remember I'm looking at myself . I have but on a few kgs coz I was using the op and a way out of diet or exersice for way to long :) but I'm back on it and feeling great about my new body . I would like to thank everyone hear for there words you all have been a great surport , and I hope my story has helped even one person xxx

Had my last ps appointment today :( it's sad that its all over , 4 1/2 months in a feeling great . She said that it looked like my left boob was slightly bigger ( I have thought that from day one ) and my left nipple is slightly more pioning out would like I'm hitch hiking lol , she did say that these things could be looked at but them other things might happen . I'm more than happy with the size shape and even the hitch hiking nipple . It is 100% better that what I had , and I told her that . She was very happy with the scaring in my cleavage ( because she had to cut so high because my boobs are so close together . She took some more after pics and that was it . The next part of my small boob life begins .

BEST THING I EVER DID FOR MYSELF X

I wouldn't worry about the "hitch hiking nipple" your breasts look great! I would be very happy with your result. Thanks for the updates, so many ladies stop posting at 6 weeks and its so comforting to me to see them healed and settled. Makes everything less scary! Thanks!! And best of luck! (P.S your puppy is adorable!!)
Symone75 11 Jan 2013

Well, here i am at 3.5 weeks. Each day is better. Boobs feel a lot better but still appear puffy. I have never had boobs under my arm and now i do. Dr assures me it is normal and will drop. I am starting to itch some. Incisions look great. I sure would love to be a c or d cup when "done". I am in a d now. Loving how perky they are haha. My left nipple still has no external feeling (but responds to cold and is very painful when it is cold) dr was not concerned. He felt it would bounce back. Honestly i am ok with it. As long as one works i am fine :-)... hope you are still doing well.
Symone75 20 Nov 2012
Wow almost 4 weeks that's great . My nipples where very sensitive for quite a few weeks and the feeling of your boobs u dee your arms is horrable but by 8 weeks your body gets use to the differents and you will feel yourself . Is the best thing I have ever done and I would tell anyone to do it . I love telling people lol and people enjoy hearing about it . Keep me posted on how your doing . X
gakat 10 Nov 2012
I am 15 days post BR and still uncomfortable. Your before boobs resembled mine. Your after pic did as well. How long did you swell? I wanted to go to a average C cup. Right now i am in a DD and kind of sad. Dr said i am still swollen. Did u notice a change from week 2 to say week 5? can not wait until i am 15 weeks post op. you look wonderful
Symone75 10 Nov 2012
Gakat , I remember thinking at week 2 that I made the wrong decision . They looked so small ( compeared to what I was use to ) I don't recall them being to swollen . I wanted to be a D/DD ( Australian ) I could get into a c a few weeks after op and was a bit sad coz I like my boobs just not quite as big as they were . At 16 week I'm now between a D/DD so right where I wanted to be . It's really hard to say how we all work coz I don't think I ever swelled to much I had minimal brusing I think I got quite lucky really . But if you look at some of the girls before and afters some of them are very swollen and bruised . I will say by week 8 you will feel like you again they will look better sit better and after that it all gets better 16 weeks now and I live the way the sit and feel I love how I look in cloths and finally people are saying wow now that's how you should have looked ( not ingorged by my own boobs ) I still get the odd sharp pain but every day I get out of the shower and see them I that god my husband allowed my to but my boons on the house I thank him for caring for me . I thank my lucky stars I found an amazing ps just down the road from me and I thank my body for bounding back and recovering better than ever imagined , keep me posted on how you go week by week I would love to hear how your going . X

US sizing is different, but I was a 34H and went down to a D-DD. I had worried I would be too small, but I've come to realize I wish I was a bit smaller. But even with that, I am so happy I did it! Best of luck to you! Please keep us posted!
Symone75 9 Jul 2012
Thanks so much for your feed back , you should like yOu are about my size in the boob department , a lot of people I know are getting implants and are going to a d cup and now I'm concerned I'll be to small , I'm sure it's just my brains way of saying its getting closer , I just want to be happy with the results ( $10,000 worth of happy ) a friend said don't look at it as $10,000 think of it as $5000 each lol love my friends .
