Hey guys! First of all I want to thank you for...

Hey guys! First of all I want to thank you for writing such great reviews. I have been consulting this websitte like 100 times in the last few days, waiting for further post-op pics which totally confirm my decision of having a breast reduction done. And secondly, I want to apologize for my rather bad english - it is not my mother tongue but I'll try to give you an impresson of how it all started:

I have these huge boobs since the age of 14, 15 - actually it seems like I am having them forever. I am a 75E cup which is basically bigger than the cup of Pamela Anderson. ;) Ever since I remember I feel like being a head on 2 huge boobs! I try to wear minimizer bras and I think that they do not look as huge as they really are when I am dressed. I then look more like a 75c/d-cup but actually I am not! But actually it's not only the size which I do not like: Gravity has done a lot of mean things which is why they are already sagging a lot. Actually they are sagging forever and also my skin is full of stretch marks (not that nicely looking as you can imagine) ;) I am a rather sporty person and try to work out - however, it really DOES hurt a lot. That's a thing that only people with big breasts can imagine . THe same is true whenever I wear a bikini..... *ouch*!
So, after having thought about this operation for almost 10 years now, I decided that I cannot live with these breasts any longer - they have to go away, or at least become smaller ;) I consultet a PS on the 16th of June. THe PS was really nice however she also told me that insurance will not cover it since she will not take out more than 500 grams... That's a pitty, of course however I want this thing done no matter what, so I will cover it on my own...
The date of surgery is scheduled on July, 17th! I am so much looking forward to it. It will take place at her ordination and she promised me that I am able to go home in the evening. My mother will pick me up - she is the only person who knows about my surgery and unfortunately she is not really happy about it. However, she also knows that I am suffering from my big boobs since the age of 14 and she also went to a PS with me when I was 17 - however, back then they told me I am too young for having it done at that stage. Well, lucke her - she wears a size 75B cup! Where do these genes come from????

The PS will make use of the lejour-technique - she told me that would be the best as she will not take out too much breast tissue and fat.

So guys, I will keep you updated about my surgery and my progress but I am happy if you can also answer some questions:

after how many days (after the surgery) were you able to drive a car?
when did you work out again?
when did you wear underwire-bras again (and not the sport bras any more)
how did the people react (I will tell my father after the surgery as I know he won't understand.... and I do not want anyone else to know - probably they'll think I just lost some weight...?)
after how many weeks where you able to travel again (it's summer, you know... :))

one day to go

Today I received a call at work from the medical institute and a lady explained all necessary things for tomorrow (she told me that I should wear comfy clothes, that I will be able to go home afterwards in the evening and she advised me to stop eating 6 hrs before the surgery takes place). I am extremely looking forward to it and I am not nervous at all - even though I have to go there alone tomorrow. Whats wrong with me? At the moment I am surfing through the internet and look at all these fancy clothes that I will be able to wear soon. I also find myself starring at boobies of others the last few days! I am happy I finally made this decision and hope the results will be as good as the results I find here on realself. The only thing that makes me nervous is the fact that when using the lejour method it could be possible to have a reduction done later on (due to excess-skin). Thats what my surgeaon told me - however she said it is rather unlikely. Let's hope for the best!

In 24 hrs I will have smaller boobs! I just can't wait! :)

4 days post and I do not regret a single thing

Just a little update from my side : the surgery went all good - I feel like I lost 10 kg! It is such a relief!

My left boob is slightly bigger than my right one - but I thinks it's due to the swelling. I still have a lot of bruising but I do not feel ANY pain! My energy level is back to normal, I just had problems the first day due to the anesthesia. but that's it!

I will upload pictures soon! The only thing that bothers me a little is the position of my nipples - I think they could be a little higher... :( but all in all I am really content and I can highly recommend this surgery and really want to encourage others. I read so much stuff about "taking 5 weeks off" a "lot of pain" etc. but in my case this is not true at all! Even though it's a rather "big thing", it doesnt feel like that :)
