WORTH IT$4,900

So growing up I was always an A cup, a few years ago I gained a lot of weight and got to a C cup. And now, after losing 69lbs, I'm hardly an A cup again. But they look worse now because they were stretched out a little.
I'm very into weight lifting and exercise and am dreading the post OP healing and scared in wont be able to lift like I use to.
I don't want to go any bigger than 350cc, maybe 300ish.
What is everyone's average healing time? To where they can be normally active? And does anyone weight lift as well with their implants? Any feed back would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for starting your story on RealSelf! Do you have surgery scheduled yet?

Here's what doctors say about healing time after getting breast augmentation.

Hello! This was the hardest part for me too. It was no running for about 4-5 weeks, and no weights for about 6 weeks. I run every day and it was very hard for me too. Weights are fine after time, if you go under muscle you will always feel them when you lift, but its not a painful thing, just know they're there. So for the weeks in the beginning I just walked, put the incline up, etc. and still wear good sports bras. Go for 350!!! Mine are 300cc, sometimes wish they were just a little bigger. Well worth it. It was about 2 months til I felt human again and could do everything again. But I'd do it again too! :)

Thank you so much for the feed back!!! I'm still debating on the size and I was planning on 400cc & 425cc but I'm scared they will be too big. I don't want to be too self conscious walking around the gym lol.

Hi Reading 5920! I was happy to read your post. My surgery date is May 1, and I'm still on the fence...300 HP, 304 moderate profile, or 325HP (silicone). I really wish he did mod plus, I think that would be perfect for me, but they do not offer that, and I have already put down a deposit and love the surgeon. :/ So, I am 5'5' and 123#. and a runner as well. I am a 32A (was a 34B prekids) and my goal is a small C... What were you before and are you about my size? Help! Thanks! :)

Hello Kden, I'm your height and 128 lbs. Was a c cup before kids. After kids and losing 50 lbs. only had loose skin, didn't really have any breasts, just saggy skin, it was pretty aweful. So it took 300 cc to " fill the skin" if you will............. I would probably do a little bigger , but they're nice to workout with, and I can spice them up in a nice VS bra, and when I do that I don't think they should be bigger. People that are thinner aren't supposed to have really big boobs. I like that they're a size thats big enough but people wouldn't know they're not real. So the 300 made me a 34D, or I can wear 36C also, and I think that's big enough!

So I'm scheduled in a week for my breast augmentation. I am so excited yet the only thing I am nervous about is the size. My issue is I do not want to go too big. I am planned in 400cc in the right and 425c in the left but am terrified that I will be a D cup. I am thinking maybe 375cc in the right and 400cc in the left now. I am barly an A cup now and I just want amazing looking breasts that aren't too big.
One more week!

I'm a runner and my PS told me that I can go running at 2 weeks post op wearing a very supportive sports bra. Not long distance, of course but a few miles is fine. 6 weeks to resume any heavy lifting/normal activities. I know it can get confusing, so I think you should let your body be your guide afterwards. I'm so excited for you! Good luck on your surgery!
