119 Pounds, 20 Years Old, 5 4 - Texas, TX

A couple days ago, I was walking to my car and got a call from the surgeon's office. It was his assistant calling to say that I was approved for surgery! :) they will pay 85% of the final bill. I was approved for a 340 gram removal, but I think I want to go smaller. I would honestly like them to be 32b, 32c at the absolute biggest. I love the look of small boobs on small frames like mine. Anything bigger than a 34c looks clunky and oversized. Being fit and active, I'd prefer a slender profile and actual manageable breasts. (Minimal bouncing, ONE sports bra makes them flat) so I'll have to see what the doctor says about going that small. Hopefully he isn't one to choose what I want for me and gives me freedom to decide. I'm extremely excited. Surgery will be in December, but until then, all of my pains and annoyances are more annoying because I know they're about to resolve. I've got some new clothes set aside that I will try on post op and wear pre op and it's going to be AMAZING. I'm super excited :))))

This morning, I was very nervous about being examined. We went to the office (my mom and I) and did all our paperwork and got called in. We went to separate consultation rooms and I waited for the doctor to come in. He came in the room and was really friendly and lighthearted. We had a conversation about medical history and my height and weight, conservative management, bra size, etc. then he left to see my mom about the same and told me to change into a gown. I was anxious until I looked at myself in the glass window and saw how disproportionate I looked in my t shirt. Then I lost every single care about some guy poking my boobs and put on the gown and waited. He came in with his assistant and I quickly took my gown off. He said my weight loss caused my skin to stretch a lot so my boobs are positioned strangely. He said they aren't as much heavy but their position creates the same problem. He then said a reduction would be benefit me and prevent further pain. He said he would send a letter to my insurance company and they would say "we require 300 grams" and he would be fine, or they will say "we require 500" and the surgeon said I would have to decide if I wanted to be that small. (Which I do) Then he said if they require further conservative treatment, he would
help me get that to be approved. If they sent a denial letter, their office has a letter challenging it (which I LOVE) and they won't just accept a denial. So, there's that. Now it's just a matter of waiting to see what my insurance says, hopefully theyll be in a good mood when they read my letter haha. I'll post updates when insurance replies :)

My consulation is on the 7th...so in 3 days. I'm kind of nervous about the whole "random person feeling my boobs" thing and how Ill deal with it. I've never liked doctors and if I didn't feel that I truly needed this surgery, I would NEVER venture into it. Also, does anyone have any suggestions on what to mention or can anyone give me some questions or scenarios the plastic surgeon might bring up? Thanks
