Surgery Scheduled! Nervous & Excited! The Right Size...? - Atlanta, GA

Settling In!

It's been over 3 months now and I'm happy with the size I was so scared of initially! They keep dropping and shrinking, becoming softer and more natural feeling and looking. I went from a B to a large D I think. I still have some settling to do. They look natural, I had no reason to be afraid of a few CCs! Dr. Colgrove said I would have been unhappy with any fewer CCs following my surgery, as I had Ds when breastfeeding my son years ago.

Your pre op photos look a lot like mine! I'm also choosing about 400cc What incision did you go with? Saline or silicone Your really in shape! And the implants flatter your body!

You look fantastic! The boobs the bod! You got it all! How is working out the chest PO? I'm still not released for chest exercises but I'm a little worried about push ups PO.

I have had to tone it waaay back at the gym so as not to use my chest. Upper body is basically out. Pilates too. The boobs have separated and I don't want them drifting any further due to my muscle restriction! Don't do push ups.. It's not worth the risk.. you'll have time to hit it hard soon!

Can you do the same workouts you used to? Weights, etc? You look among the best I've seen. They don't look like 400's, at least on you - sometimes my 325's feel like 800's!!

No way!! I miss my pilates! I work abs and legs basically. No pushups! My chest muscles are pretty tight as is.. I try to keep them as relaxed as possible until I hit 6 mo. It's tough! Yeah, the 400s faded into my torso. I'm not little in the torso so they aren't huge on me. I was so scared to look top heavy.. I almost went with 300s. Glad I didn't!

I had my surgery yesterday and everything went well. I decided on the 400s and glad I did do far! Dr Colgrove and the nurse were patient, helpful and informative. I am so excited to try on my clothes and suites when the pain subsides!!

It hard to say what cc amount will get you to a D cup; the same amount off cc on one woman than on another will look differently; you can continue trying on sizers and even make rice sizers at home to see what cc amount you are comfortable with; whatever size u choose add 50cc to it because if you go under the muscle you will lose 50 cc;

My surgeon told me to bring pics of augmented breast that I liked and didn't like. We chose the size and profile based on that. My surgery was 2 Weeks ago and I couldn't be happier with my results.

I think about 400, supposedly every 200 is a size more or less.
