I have an hourglass body figure, but would like more body weight in my breasts; they’ve always been smaller and it would even out my frame / build. However, I don’t have money for this kind of procedure. Should I go ahead and lose the weight (10-12 pounds) or should I maintain the weight until I am able to do the procedure?
