6 Weeks Post-Op: Wearing a 32D!
WORTH IT$5,800
To my utter disbelief, IT FITS. I can’t believe I- someone who struggled to fill out a 32A bra a mere two months ago- can now completely fill out a 32D o__O I am stunned, and I am so happy.
If you can see from my photo with the nude bra, my band looks to be lifting up despite being on the tightest notch. The cup size is perfect, but I wonder if a smaller band such as a 30D would fit better on me.
With that being said, please scratch my last post with all that boob greed talk =P That phase has definitely passed and I am beyond content with my size!! I love how modest yet perky I am. I love the subtle projection and the natural chest gap. I love that I can wear an unlined bralette and still feel full and not shallow. I love that they look like the same size as my Victoria Secret bombshell bras under blouses (when I was a 32A) so it doesn’t catch attention at work, but they fill out sports bras worn at the gym incredibly. Winter szn is coming and I’ve never been so bummed to wear layers, lol.
I had my final post-op with my PS and they took after pics. I’ve been cleared from restrictions and can resume weightlifting again!

Congrats on great results! They look great!
Wondering what profile you got for the 275s?? Also, would you be able to hide them if you wanted? I’m looking at going 225 low profile plus and I think I should be able to get the BA without too many questions from friends etc. thoughts???
It’s hard to find girls on here with less than 300cc so thank you for sharing!

4 Weeks Post-Op: Boob Greed
You read about it on RealSelf, every person who gets the procedure experiences it, you do extensive research and swear you wouldn’t go through it yourself... But no matter how much you try and refrain from it, you simply cannot escape the inevitable feeling that is *BOOB GREED*
I was certain on the size I have for months, yet for the past two weeks, I cannot shake off annoying bouts of wishing I went 25-50 cc’s bigger =/ I think this is caused from a mix of lurking the progress of other women on RealSelf and swelling going down, making my girls appear smaller. I keep reminding myself to love and be grateful for my result because I used to have NOTHING. To ease greedy emotions, I’ll try on plunge tops, sports bras, and dresses to admire how good they look without having to wear a bra, which is something I wasn’t able to do before. This certainly helps :) Attached is a photo of an unlined bralette I wore before a festival in 2016, and WHOA it looks incredible on me now.
Anyway, it’s human nature to always want more. Thankfully, the common opinion is that the boob envy phase will pass as the girls progress into their final form.
On another note- I am DYING to try on bras to find out my final size. In my previous post, I claimed 32C, but this was just from measuring tape. I need to see it for myself lol! Unfortunately with COVID restrictions, dressing rooms are closed everywhere. I went to Target and grabbed bras in a variety of styles and pouted to see the dressing area closed off :( So I went to Victoria Secret and their fittings rooms were closed as well. They had a bra fit specialist size me and she claimed me to be 32D. WHAT? I am so skeptical because I swear I’m in between 32B or 32C. She explained that the cup size isn’t the projection, it’s the width of your breast and I would spill over in a 32C. So crazy! However, I’ve also heard VS sizes small? I ended up not purchasing a bra since I wasn’t able to try it on and my girls still have another month or two to drop & fluff. I don’t want to buy a $50 bra if I no longer fit into it in a few months. So I guess my official bra size shall remain a mystery!
Lastly, I’ve returned to the gym! No intense cardio, weightlifting, or upper body exercises. Just fast walking/moderate incline on the treadmill and body weight exercises for my lower body.

Boob greed is real! But if you had anything bigger they would look obviously fake. Just my two cents. I'm right there with ya! Small implant club - they look great !!
October 17, 2020
Thank you!!! You are absolutely right. Also, I would be so much more stressed if I felt they were too big vs thinking I could have gone bigger. No longer feeling greedy, I just love them so much now!

I am also kinda dying to figure out my bra size. I just ordered the Plunge from Cuup at a 30G lol so let's see if it fits. They have sizing online where you can plug in your band size and bust size and it tells you your size.

You look fabulous! I’m 2 weeks post and I was telling the nurse I was having such a hard time finding comfy bras that were still really supportive now that a lot of swelling has gone down and my original ones are getting loose. She told me to try some actual sized ones and said to try 30D or 32C. I was shocked. Have yet to find and size 30, but I’ve ordered one 32C to try so far. But I’m the same, I don’t want to spend a ton now just to need something different in a couple months again. I picked up a zip up sports bra from Wal-Mart today in size S and it’s the best fitting one I’ve found so far!
October 17, 2020
Thank you dear! I just read your most recent post and I had the exact same reaction trying on a 32D! Eee, congrats to both of us!! You look beautiful ^__^
October 15, 2020
They look amazing!!! i'm due to get 250cc next month and this is making me so excited!
October 17, 2020
Thank you miss!! And AH I'm so excited for you! I shall follow along on your journey :)
January 11, 2021
Wow, girl! You look great. You also looked great with a smaller chest, but being small myself I understand. I love that they don't overtake you. I'm so nervous to take the plung...so many different reviews on implants. Agh

2 Weeks Post-Op: Measuring at a full 32C
Nothing new to report. Just feeling myself in my favorite plunge top that used to require a VS bombshell bra to wear ^__^ It’s 9am and I’ve never felt sexier on a Trader Joe’s run LOL
I haven’t applied silicone tape to my scars just yet. I’m waiting for the scabs to fall off naturally and completely before I do. Also, I know on my 1 Week Post Op I said I was “pain free” - let me clarify, minor discomfort persists (honestly a 1 or 2 on a scale of 1-10) and this will linger for some time. Nipples remain numb and boobs are firm and tender.
Lastly, I haven’t gone bra shopping, but I used measuring tape and a bra calculator online. I’m measuring at a full 32C! Just what I wanted :) So for the queens that are my similar stats and debating sizes: I would suggest 275cc (my size) for a full C; 300cc for the fullest C / small D; and 325cc for a full D.

Breast tissue plus implant new post implant volume. 32B cup holds up to 310 cc's, 32C holds up to 390 cc, 32D holds up to 480 cc, 32DD holds up to 510 cc. just google "bra cc chart" and click on one of the images. If you are starting with 60 cc's of breast tissue (which is two ounces), then you can get implants up to 325cc, and fit into 32C, up to 415 cc and probably still fit into a 32D. Of course sometimes the bra cup sizes vary between manufacturers and implant width can affect how well cups fit, as sometimes the cup may be too narrow to fit around implant+skin at the base.

Interesting, I hadn’t heard this! I’ll have to look that up. I was going for a full B and my PS did 275cc. I did have very little to start with. I’m only a couple days post op, but I feel like it will be exactly what I was going for.
October 12, 2020
Sorry if I missed it but what was your breast width again? Really want 275cc but I’m 12.5 so have to go 300cc at the least!
October 17, 2020
Hi hun! I overheard my PS tell the nurse 10.5 on my consult. I have a very small frame. What are your stats and your goals? :)
I did my 275cc surgery 9 days ago, meanwhile really satisfied with the size
