The Last Straw I was invited to a fraternity...

The Last Straw
I was invited to a fraternity formal and it's in Florida on the beach. Unfortunately my date and I had just met and he asked me a month before it was road trip time. I had a month to the nearly impossible, find a dress that fits my boobs and my body. After spending countless hours shopping and with no sight of the end I finally just settled on a dress. I wasn't going to even entertain the idea of shopping for swimsuits and I would just use the same top that I have worn for 2 years and mix with bottoms.

We finally get to the hotel and everyone is down at the pool...Great. Reluctant to take off my top and just receive stares, I did anyway. The worst part of my boobs is that everyone assumes they're fake and I'm stereotyped into the plastic [RS bleep] or slutty. That's not the case at all. (The 2nd worse part is your friends trying to help you and give you advice, like going to Victoria's Secret to buy bras and swimwear. LOL, they don't have my size!) On the 3rd day of the trip my date asked me to be his girlfriend in the sand and had one of my friends play photographer......It was adorable, but of course the boobs stole the show.

As soon as I got back to Tennessee I set up an appointment with the Plastic Surgeon. I've already done the informational appointment, on Dec 1st I have the consultation with the plastic surgeon. YAY. I want document this whole process because I feel like I'm alone, and I always have felt that way. But in case there is a young girl out there who feels alone, maybe she can follow me and feel some comfort.

Thank you for joining us.  You are not alone here, and will find endless support.  It's tough being the girl with the big boobs, I know this first hand and it hurts.  

You will be so happy once this is done.  It was a life changing event for me.  I am glad to see that you are not waiting as many years as I did to get this done.  Please let us know how the appointment goes on the 1st.

Julia --this is more than just before and after photos. Breast reduction is a big decision and a journey. Let the girl tell her story and share her photos! Im thinking about breast reduction as well and honestly i love how my boobs look naked, but hate hate hate how they look in clothes and finding bathing suits is a nightmare. If you don't won't to see certain pics then don't go onto pages that have them. whoa. what a concept.

good luck to you, it'll be worth it! I had the same problem with bathing suits, and have always worn a cover-up to prevent unduly flashing anyone lol. I could only use the triangle style tops in the largest size as other styles didn't fit right or offer any support. I can finally fit into a top with boobs fully covered after the surgery! How does the new BF feel about the surgery?

Today is the Appointment! I am concerned about my boobs being shaped weird because I have such a small frame. I have a lot of side boob and I don't know if Dr. Scanland will be able to shape them. My appointment is at 4:30!
