I am glad that I have found these reviews on RealSelf - it has helped me understand some of what I will be able to expect after my surgery. A bit about myself - I am 44, mother of one Son who is 24. I have had large breasts for the majority of my life - starting at a 34D when I was 18 and then heading up to a DD after breastfeeding at 20. Never went back to a D after breastfeeding and then after gaining 20kilos my breasts went up to a 38E. I lost some weight but never in the boobs - down 15kilos but breasts are now 37FF - very frustrating!
Over the last 3-4 years I have started to suffer chronic back and neck pain - so hence my decision to have a breast reduction. Ultimately I would like to go down to a C but my PS says that a D would be best - so I figure he knows his job, and we will go with the D.
Pre-Op appointment this Friday and my very supportive Husband is coming with me - hope he gets all his questions answered. Will let you know how we go - count down is on and getting very excited now :)

Went to see PS on Friday with Husband and we are both happy with what he is planning to do with my breasts. Might be taking up to 600grams from each which will bring me down to a C-D cup and lift the girls up about 6cm - so I am Little Mrs Happy and Husband will have a new playground to explore :) :) LOL. Have to start a list of things to take to hospital and things to have ready at home - only 15 sleeps to go Yeeha :)

I am so excited and nervous about my upcoming surgeries. As far as my breast go, I am currently a 38G and I want to go down to a 38D which is still big, but I would like to lose about 30 pounds so my doctor thinks that I will not lose that much in the breast department, maybe 1/2 -1 size which still leaves a nice size. I guess for me, I am afraid that he will take too much. My breast are big, but they are all that I know. My doctor assured me that if he took some away, I would have plenty left. Good luck to all. I will update after first surgery which we be my tummy tuck. :)

Well here I am in my last hours as a FF busty babe and sooooo looking forward to my new D cup hopefully C tomorrow.
Not sure if I am totally organised but will have a couple of hours in the morning to get my last minute organizing done. Up at 6am for a light breakfast and then fasting from 7am - check in to hospital at 11am and surgery booked for 1.30pm.
Not nervous (think Husband is though) just extremely excited :)
Will update with photos and progress as I go.

Welcome to the community.
You will feel like a new woman once this is done. Yes your doctor will take you to an appropriate size. My advice though is to really express to him what you want as a final outcome. If you want a C cup in the end, ask him if this is medically possible. I about drove my surgeon nuts expressing my wants and needs..LOL I even took pictures into the office to show him what I wanted to look like.
Let me know how everything goes.
