Weight loss & gain due to eating habits &...
WORTH IT$7,000
Weight loss & gain due to eating habits & pregnancy my boobs are worn out. They used to be high Ds & now they're flat Vs that need a lift. I've decided to go big or go home, since I'm getting a lift might as well get them back to the size of their former glory as well. I used to think implants were so ridiculous and a waste of money. But after my boobs have hit the floor I have learned to be a lot less judgmental. Do you, and be happy! I don't owe anyone an explanation, I'm going to stop apologizing for the decisions I'm making. I'm also getting a tummy tuck done at the same time, I have a separate review for that since the decision came @ separate times. I'm going to rock these boobs with no shame in my game! As of right now I'm going with 400cc silicone implants, will see what happens when they go in there. They will order some slightly bigger and smaller

What size do you want?
I have been 34 D, 34 DD when I gained weight or was pregnant. Now my boobs are so deflated and droopy. I don't want stripper boobs or to look cartoonish but I would like large breast as I've had them naturally before and was to achieve that look again. When I told my PS to make me a D/DD again he explained that cup size is not very reliable and varies by manufacturer. Its very subjective, plus most people are wearing the wrong size bra anyway. He wanted me to bring in wish pics so I have been all over Realself looking for the "Dream" lol. I was wearing a DD bra I have at my consultation with was great because when I was trying on implants I could see which one filled the bra up to its former glory :-). Anyway, I found this information on the net about size and playing with size that I would helpful so here it is:
THE RICE TEST
Take a knee-high stocking and fill it with rice. For starters, try 300 cc's or 350 cc's. (There are 30 cc's to an ounce, which means that 10 ounces is 300 cc's.) Use a measuring cup for accuracy. Flatten out the rice in the hose and place it inside your non-padded bra. What do you think? Add or subtract rice based on how it looks.
Some women may prefer to use water in a Ziploc bag to get an idea of breast implant sizes. Allergan Inc., maker of the Natrelle collection of implants, offers a pre-consultation kit that includes sample implants and a profile bra to help women make these important choices about breast size before surgery.
These are also ways to communicate your desires and expectations with your plastic surgeon. He or she will then try to meet these goals with an anatomically appropriate implant choice.
Remember that volume refers solely to size, not breast shape. If your breasts have changed shape, a breast lift in conjunction with breast implants can help raise and firm your breasts.

Whole new world of possibilities
Having a large chest my whole life a lot of consideration goes into tops. No low back dresses, strapless, halter top or spaghetti straps. Why??? Well the breasts were large but never perky, even as a teen. So I had to make sure to wear the right engineered equipment. Also heavy breast that hang hurt the neck. So I had to make sure that all my bathing suits were bra top. Even one peice suits were a challenge if the breasts weren't supported. Strapless bras are a nightmare with all the weight of large saggy breasts. I can't tell you the embarrassment when the girls would pop out of a top or swim wear. Soon those days are over :-)!

Thanks for posting. You are so right about those days being over. It's fun to see members of this community busting out their strapless dresses. One member even recently created Tube Top Tuesday! Get ready for it:-)

Our breasts could be sisters! lol Even at their glory they were too heavy to be perky. I can't wait until my new & improved girls can wear the cute strapless maxi dresses & an extremely cute bathing suit! I had a TT w/muscle repair, BL w/420cc saline moderate plus profile & Lipo of side boob & inner thighs on 3/27! I can't believe this summer I might be cute!!!
