9 DAYS AWAY!!!
i'm getting so excited but this has been the longest 3 weeks of my life. I can't believe it's really happening. I went to Forever 21 looking for a cheap stretchy comfy bra to wear. Partly for post op but mainly just because i'm getting antsy!! It's a S/M and i plan to bring it to the hospital to show him what my definite goal is. I'll include a photo of it now for comparisons sake later. I JUST CANT BELIEVE THIS IS HAPPENKGN!!! I've wanted to model for quite a while now & this is going to give me the confidence boost that i needed. I'm really overwhelmed with the amount of support from my loved ones and i can't wait !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My mom is gonna record me all doped up and i plan to post it somewhere so anyone who wants to experience secondhand embarrassment has to look no further. I had my preop appointment last week & everything went fine as far as i know!!! AHHHHHHHH

Heyyyyy! I can't believe i'm writing my first review on this account... I recently got my breast reduction surgery approved by my insurance (BCBS) and it's the most surreal feeling i've ever experienced. I can't imagine what it'll be like when its done!! I've had a large chest ever since I can remember. Ive always felt like i'd tip over from being so top heavy. However, i have been overweight so until recently i didn't realize just how unproportionate i am.
I got called names and harassed for it all throughout high school. It's kept me from playing sports, wearing anything remotely fitting, and most of all being and feeling like who I truly am. I realized I wanted this surgery when i was about 15. I've constantly compared my body and stared at other girls who were even just one size smaller than me, dying to know what it was like to not have to deal with this. I was already making my way past the D mark FAST. But being that young, there's not much you can do. I figured unless i lost the extra weight I was already carrying, i'd just be stuck like this and unhappy for the rest of my life.
I naturally have a small frame (32 band size), and after losing a bit of weight it became more clear to me that these girls i'm carrying every day were the culprit of my impending doom. I do have shoulder grooving, rash scars, bra scars, and crazy back and neck pain. I realized no matter how small i got, my boobs would ALWAYS be with me, and holding me back from so much!!
So in april i researched breast reduction surgeries on youtube and real self. Googling doctors, insurance info, and all the requirements i needed to meet. I was nervous but after seeing my Primary Care doctor I was assured that i wasn't making all of this up. I then got a consultation with Dr. Adam Mecinski of Mid Atlantic Surgery Center. He had no objections to me having the surgery, and assured me that a G is definitely too big for my frame. I told him to make me as SMALL AS POSSIBLE and that a B would be AMAZING!!!!! It seemed like it was in reach however his only fear was that insurance might try to avoid paying for it, so after that it was the waiting game. About a week or two later i called back to see if there were any updates, and because of the way it was submitted at the time the surgery would have to be approved (or not) by insurance AFTER it was done... So i would either get lucky, or have to pay it all myself. She suggested i try to get more documentation, so i went to a chiropractor for 6 weeks.
That must have done the trick because we submitted the info, updated my file and sent it on through. In 10 days it was approved and i've never felt more relieved in my whole life. I have a pre-op appointment next Tuesday, and my surgery is loosely scheduled for September 8th. I CANT BELIEVE I AM SAYING THIS !?!?!
I just can't believe all the oversized clothes i'm going to be able to trade in for cute little bralettes and crop tops. I tried a couple 32 B bras on today and THAT was hilarious!!! But in less than a month i'll be able to fit them and i can't wait. Talk soon!!:)
