Decided to love myself the way God Created me :)

Thank you!! :)

I felt like a boy on swim team... ugh it was terrible I looked like a boy from the front. I would look over and even my tomboy friends on the team were rockin' at least a B cup! I guess my decision to sew padding in came from me being desperate lol I also created some very padded interesting bikinis that were hard as rocks but FANTASTIC optical illusions haha. Like you, I would have kept it to myself as well but I live with my parents and they are incredibly nosy. Very conservative and I come to my mom about everything.. Which makes this so hard when she completely disagrees with what I am doing. I feel like my mom is more upset about this than my dad is too! hmm you would think it would be opposite! I wish all of my friends were supportive. For the most part they aren't bad I would say half don't want me too but they love me and will stand by my side! You are lucky! It's nice to hear someone else having BF boob job woes.. lol :( My BF and I have been dating for a year and a half. I feel that my BF will do the same as your ex.. kind of however he has always been very supportive and loving and always tries to do what is right for us and stand by me. I am just scared that like your ex he will think that he needs to fix my self consciousness about my small boobs.... "hmm FIX" I don't know where they get the idea that they can. Years and years of insecurity built up within us and they think that if they tell us that they like our small chests enough times that our insecurities will all change... I don't think that they realize that we are NOT getting our boobs done to make them happy.. We are doing it to feel confident about ourselves. Although there compliments might help they will not ultimately dictate and rid us of the way that we feel about our small chests. Your right, just because not everyone agrees doesn't mean that I don't get to be happy.. Or feel good about myself! I have my own body thank you very much! haha I will try my best to remember that :D Thank you so much for taking the time to read my story and your support! I about cried when I saw what everyone had written! I look forward to reading more of your story as well! Good luck to you too :)

Way to go InkedBeauty on recognizing his pattern of behavior! He was being selfish by not supporting YOU and your goals. I had a similar experience with my ex bf. Though I am mostly confident I will find a new amazing guy who loves me even with implants, some of the things my ex said still sting! Thankfully I am happily single and doing my BA in 1 month because I have wanted it for me for roughly 10 years. Who says you can't have your cake and eat it too;) Good luck breaking the news Excitedyetnervous91! I hope he is supportive of your goals and doesn't try to shame you into feeling bad about going for what you want in life. I love your bit about "Woman spend hundreds even thousands of dollar on clothes, make-up, hair products, cuts, colors, gym memberships, etc how is this any different." I need to remind my sister of this next time she tries to shame me about "Being so extreme and self-conscious to the point of surgery, just to be fake." Thank goodness my friends, cousin, and mom are more supportive and less judgmental.

Lolita, I am sooo happy to be single now too! The first thing I did after breaking up with my ex was schedule my first BA consultation :-)

Way to go for what you want!

I am so nervous to tell my BF but it has to be done. Who know maybe he will be more supportive than I thought? :) That would be a nice surprise! I am so glad that you can use one of my points with your family! Let me know how that goes! I am going to look up some more supportive statements of comments on other blogs! Good luck to you LolitaAK! :)

I'm so excited for you and that telling your boyfriend went so well! I truly hope he recognizes that he should care more about your happiness and goals as opposed to what other people think. Good luck and happy upcoming consultation to you!

Sometimes I feel like it would just be easier to not tell anyone! I had contemplated just letting them find out on their own. They could just begin to notice individually after it was done (and couldn't be undone) so I wouldn't get the long lecture. I am living at home right now too!!!! When I told my mom that I wanted to get them done she told me that she would kick me out and not help me pay for school if I came home with implants.... It is like I have committed a crime or something :/ I think that I am going to just drive up to Seattle and then stay with my best friend for a few days after Christmas and into the New Year so I have time to rest while school is out. Surprisingly my father has less of an issue about my decision than my mother and brother do. We have agreed to disagree. But I am wondering if my family will become more supportive after the surgery like yours were! hmm I hope soo! One of my girlfriends was giving me a hard time about my decision this weekend (She doesnt get it shes a natural 36C) So I told her to try on skimpy bras with me at Victorias secret and she literally cried she was laughing so hard.. haha we both were. If only they knew how it felt to be on the other side of the laughter!..

I know! Your right; I think you should go ahead and get it done; its your body your the one who has to do with what makes you happy: those that have natural boobs will never understand us and how we feel: its really not worth explaning to them if the haven't walked in our shoes: once you get your boobs done; its done! So they have no other choice than accept it; I'm sure your mom will eventually come around!

When ever I get out of the pool I too have to "milk the suit" haha I suck up at least a gallon! haha Thank you for sharing your story about your tattoo. I was thinking about getting it done and not telling anyone but within the past couple weeks I have been talking to my mom almost daily about my decision and we have come to terms with it together and I feel like she is finally able to stand the fact that her daughter will most likely be getting a BA. I am still nervous about my BF though.. Once he knows and hopefully accepts it then I will be moving forward and won't be on the fence! I know that having children will change my them and I am prepared to get them re-done. lol I can't WAIT to feel liberated by moving out and making my own money! I work now but when I am able to live independently will be awesome :) It will be great! I only have a year left and I will be done with nursing school! ahh I really can't wait! Thank you for taking the time to write to me! I appreciate your input!

" This is a very personal decision and I don't think you should worry what other people with think, this is your body." Thank you. I think that I have come to this exact conclusion. I am hoping that my sweet man "really loves me" and understands and supports me. We both have been together four 19 months and we have been keeping our relationship as pure as possible.. We are waiting until marriage for everything we only kiss so I know that this will be a big shock for him. I have never expressed to him my insecurities about my breasts. He is always trying to take care of me and love me through acts of service. I know he will tell me that I don't need too and he doesn't want me to go through the pain.. hmm we will have to see how he takes it monday. I know that once I get them done I will always wear covering and conservative clothes especially in church. I read your story and it was very encouraging :) Thank you! Ahh I guess now all I can do is pray pray pray! :)

Everyone has told me the same thing, wait until you get pregnant! They will fill out and look great! But I don't know if I really believe that! Yeah sure while I'm nursing they may look fantastic but afterwords I know that they will decrease in perkiness and volume. I wear ultra padded bras now and honestly one of the things I am most looking forward too is getting rid of them all! I might even have a ceremonial burn of one of them.. and donate the rest (lol that's just wasteful to burn them all) I do not want to go with anything that makes my breasts look fake so I know I won't be getting too large of an implant. I would like to be a full C so I am thinking somewhere around 350CC's will achieve that. I know this is an odd thought but I was thinking that I would get the augmentation done and then enjoy my first pre baby body years and then I was looking forward to getting pregnant because I believed the pregnancy would make my breasts appear even more natural afterwords! I am so excited for the results because I am happy with the rest of my body (for the most part) and It will feel great to have some confidence!

One thing that has really helped me is visiting the surgeon's websites and looking at the before and afters. I find the ones that have similar body sizes, breast sizes, and breast shapes to me and then see what size and profile implants they have in. That have me a good idea of what would look too big on me or too small on me. I know a lot of people really do get much larger breasts after pregnancy. A friend of mine went from a board to a natural DD and still has them two years later! She actually wants a reduction...lol. I hope everything works out how you want! Good luck to you and make sure you keep us updated! :)

One of my favorite things to do is look at before and afters.. Their results and transformation gives me confidence and excitement to move forward! I knew I had the right surgeon when I liked almost every single one of the before and afters photos in his gallery! One of my friends increased her cup size from and A to a C! That is incredible that her breasts grew so much! :) Good for her! I hope everything works out for you as well! I look forward to reading more about your journey! :)

Thank you so much for your support it means a lot! Ughhh I hated it when I wanted to wear a tube top or a strapless dress the dress would just fall off.. Or how about when you bend over and instead of people looking at cleavage they would see ribs and little triangle boobies? haha I know that I should just get some (excuse my french) kahonas and go for what I have always dreamed about but I am such a people pleaser.. I know I need to just stick up for my feelings and thoughts and go for it. Just nervous.. haha It is awesome to know that you don't have any regrets! :) That helps alot :)

I swear I spend most of my time one this site since I found it a couple months ago! It is so great to have a community! :) I check it at least a couple times a day and try to respond to everything it has been so helpful! I wish my it was that easy with my BF. He is VERY concerned about what he does morally which is really great and has been great in our relationship because I trust him sooo much! However I think his strong internal moral standards are going to make this talk that I have with him Monday very difficult... I love when you said, "We may as well enjoy boobs while we are on Earth because we won't need them in Heaven. haha!" You're awesome haha and I definitely agree! So excited for you! A little over a month is not a long time at all! :)
