WORTH IT

When I was young I remember always wanting to have boobs and couldn't wait to have them. Unlike me my mom has had a breast augmentation so I never thought I would be blessed to have a big chest. Boy was I wrong smh. I'm 24 and 25 is knocking on the door in a month and I experience so much discomfort due to being big chested. Last fitting was a year ago and btw it was my first ever when I found out my true size was a 36E. Which explains the spilling out, the tight straps, and the brusing around my chest area. By doctors standards I am considered overweight but im built real solid and love my curves. I started to inquiry about a BR years ago even thinking about going overseas to get it done while on vacation. Someone talked me into seeing a doctor here in Mn so I did and scheduled my consult in Apr. Now when I went in I had no intentions of bringing up insurance (UHC) because I was convinced that they would not cover it. My doc was persistant though and I decided to inqury. Not even two weeks later I received a approval letter and my doc was ready to scheduled. I was in so much shock I didnt schedule right away. Long story short my surgery is on the 12th of June and I am scared out of my mind. What do i need to do to prepare im so clueless. Help please!!!! Also not smoking is killing me but im making it fyi lol

Omg the day before the surgery I'm so excited. I keep having the craziest dream though were I finally get to see my boobs and all I have left is a nipple. Scary right lol. I'm still not a 100% if I needed to bring my own bra but I went out and bought one today. I bought tons of pillows on sale at Walmart, merderma scar gel, and snacks to keep next to my bed. Best idea I had was stopping at the Dollarstore where I found gauze pads, rolls, and tape ($1 baby) lol. Also I didn't want to ruin my good athletic wear so I found a thrift store and bought tons of daskin active wear for less than......3.99 for each piece. I will post some before pics because the big day is tomorrow and I need to be reminded what I use to look like. Smooches ladies keep me in your prayers
