Getting the Body I Was Made For! :D - San Antonio, TX

ORIGINAL POST

I have always been small chested. Ive always had...

$6,000

I have always been small chested. Ive always had the "j-lo booty" compared to my entire family that have all been tall and thin figured women. Im 5'5" and 163 lbs of crazy healthy muscle, but i have always felt like a pear in clothes with a small chest and big hips. After I gave birth to my daughter 20 months ago my breasts went from a full 36 c to a small b and they are now saggy.. I didnt wear a swimsuit or any form fitted clothes because i hated how my body now looked after a kiddo. So after many years of prior research and talking with the husband, i decided to put down a deposit and start paying off for a breast augmentation.

im so nervous with the surgery a month away, i moved back home to wisconsin with my husband and daughter after hubby got out of the miltary but the doctor i had met and chosen is in san antonio, tx. so hubby and i are flying in to san antonio a few days before the surgery.


My husband is happy for me, because after 8 years he knows how strongly i feel about this and he just wants me to be happy and confident. I am excited because i am finally getting the body i was built for. Im not planning too big but i am looking for the implants to fit my hips and my wide shoulders. Ill finally feel like a girl! I am so excited for everything.


i started working out and eating healthy to manage my diabetes even more (type 1 born with it) and to tone and tighten my body for my new "girls". lol
even though i am so excited, my family, especially mother, is against it. she feels im making a huge mistake and because i am planning more children at some point in the future; she thinks its a bad decision for me to make. i understand breasts can change with pregnancy but my boobs didnt. they just.. deflated. i dont know, im so excited, but obvously scared as well. im scared about the surgery, the recovery, and im so scared of looking "fake" even though i greatly trust my doctor and his staff.
o0o0o0h i dont know, im just a bundle of nerves. im excited but wish i could just calm down! lol
