I have always been big busted for my age and well over the years I got even bigger, wearing under wire bra's to lift up my boobs, well it got to much, I went to my Family Doctor and ask about a Breast reduction, she actually was surprised and said " are you really going thru with it" I said yes it is getting to my for my back and shoulders ! I am so glad I follow thru with it, my next thing is mybelly, although I do exercise eat less, don't eat pork or sugar. I am still a big Girl and I am not afraid to show my body , I am not a super star but I am Beautiful mad , it may turn in to Diabetes, it's time to change a few things in my life! and loving it!
