43 Year Old Mum of 2, Can't Wait to Have Giant Knockers Gone - Cape Town, South Africa

thanks xx

hey mj1964, i am so happy. i had a look at your profile now and my god, yours look pretty bloody amazing too...

Thank-you, I love mine too! I only wish I had been able to do this when I was 18 and not spent my life trying to hide them. Do you know how many tops I put back over the years because they looked terrible with my big boobs, but then again all of us ladies can probably relate to that!

thanks reborn45, i am really thrilled with what i have now. anything is better than what i HAD

thanks for your kind words sally... sally, if you can, share why you are thinking of backing out. I am sure there are lots of ladies here who can say as I do that you will NEVER regret this. Maybe you can share some photos of yourself, i know some ladies are really shy, i was very very shy, and sharing my before photos are a HUGE thing for me, even though they are gone, i still cringe every time i see them. we can help you and you must remember, there are many many many really good plastic surgeons out there. dont rely on just one opinion

hi dlbf, I am now a 34-36 big B or small C. but it's only a month after the op so hard to say. I have 600g removed from one and 750 on the other side. I would get a second and third opinion from other plastic surgeons to be honest. can you maybe post some pics of yourself, censored if you are shy? that way we can help you a little more. and which country are you in?

I'm in the US. I'm a 32 DDD, maybe one size up. At my consult, PS said only 250? Doesn't seem like enough? I'm 5'2" and 135lbs. DDD is just too much! Waiting to hear from insurance......I'd love to be a C, maybe even a full B? Seem to see stories on asking for a C and ending up much larger? I don't want that! Thanks so much for your help!

I don't know if this helps but I was wearing a DD but closer to a DDD. He took 740grams from one and 802 grams from the other. This has left me with a large B small c depending on the brand? You can see my photos regarding size. My biggest fear was to end up too big! I LOVE them! If they ever got bigger for any reason I would be knocking down the door of my PS to have it done again! I will never live with large breasts again!

Thank you! I'm waiting to see what insurance requires and go from there but I feel that 250 is NOT enough! Congrats on your results!

Thanks dlbf! :)

dlbf, go find another opinion and another plastic surgeon. i asked my surgeon to please make me no bigger than a C and in my perfect world a big B and he said he would try his best and I did say it again the morning of the operation and he gave me as close as he could to what i asked for. the reason i thought you could post some pics is then you could ask some plastic surgeons on this forum for their thoughts too? don't give up...

the other thing too is if you are really young I can't see why you can't push for smaller so long as its not a risk to your safety. I do know that only a certain amount of flesh, tissue and fluids can be removed before it becomes dangerous, but 250g is ridiculous. PeedieWife had two reductions, so I think if you are young you can really have a strong argument for going smaller as breasts can grow back in some cases. xx

I'll be 40 soon, so not young.... Lol you know the funny thing is when I questioned 250 I call another PS closer to home for a second opinion. When I explained that I had numbness in hands daily and shoulder, back and neck pain and been seeing a doctor about it.....they wouldn't set up a consult until I sent them all of my doctors notes and paperwork? I explained that my insurance had already been sent the info and would know at some point if I was covered and that I may be a self pay. I just went through all of the trouble to get all documents sent to the insurance and didn't think it was necessary for them to have all of that if it was to be self pay? I still don't understand why they wouldn't set up a consult?? Just super frustrated! Been waiting since July 3 (my consult day) for a answer from insurance! 3 weeks into the waiting the insurance said they had no info on me?? PS office said not to worry and that she would handle it.......ugggggg! I guess I'm nervous to call insurance, afraid of finding out it's not covered?? Stupid I know..... Just have gotten pretty obsessed on this site and all of the stories of all of the women just like me..... Lol ok, I'm going to make some calls TODAY! Reading that last bit made me realize how silly me not calling is! Ha!! It's so nice to read the other stories and talk to them with questions!

If you get denied it may be because he isn't taking enough! Please hon, get a second opinion! Don't let this go! You deserve this! Please let us know how you make out!

Thanks! I called insurance....... And they say they have nothing?? PS office said they are mistaken and will call this morning! Insurance said they don't require prior approval but need the code to see if it would be considered..... So I WAIT....... Lol
