WORTH IT$6,500
5'3", 135 lbs. Had 300cc Saline Overs for 13 years. Hated them! Heavy and huge. Had them removed 2 years ago. I am scheduled for my 2nd BA on 4/30/13. I am going with Silicone Unders this time with a full anchor lift. The doctor is going to decide on size but looking at 350-375-400cc HP's. I feel confident that I have shown him enough pics of my wish boobs.
I am a nervous wreck! Hoping that I will like Silicone better than the Saline. I think placement has a lot to do with it also. I had nothing holding them up except for skin before, so definitely going under the muscle this time.
I will post pics and keep you all updated. The surgery is very close!!! Staying motivated on here :)

Need Encouragement -Controversial...Am I a bad Christian bc I want breast implants?

I was raised in church, and I understand God made us and is happy with us; but is it so bad that we want to feel better about ourselves? I have family that I am having a difficult time hiding this surgery from. I have almost slipped up and said "Oh when I have my surgery in two weeks" -then caught myself -oh I mean when I am out of town and really busy. I hate lying! But I know the reaction of these family members. It makes me feel bad, and I truly want to feel good about doing this. I do not think God would be angry at me for doing this. Any thoughts from anyone? Anyone else had to deal with this, or similar experience.

No, you're not a bad Christian. I too am a Christian. My peace came from asking God about having the procedure. This decision is between you and God, not anyone else. Remember, John12:47b. Jesus came to save not to judge. Also if you'd like more information about plastic surgery and Christians, Google Joyce Meyers. But again this between you and your God. hope this helps.

I agree with espann22, it's your body and nobody has the right to judge you for any decision you make regardless of religion. Don't place restrictions on yourself for fear of what others will say, always stay true to yourself and do what makes you feel happy.

Eva so true - I have dealt with low self esteem all of my life and placed restrictions on myself - this is my way of self-improvement and made me feel good about me! Made me comfortable in my body. I am not one to show them off - most people don't know I did this, but I find myself giggling inside -because I feel good about me now :) I think that actually makes God happy.

I'm glad to hear this. Remember throw out the rule book of religion and have an intimate relationship with Jesus.

Am I supposed to look like this?

Had the lift and implants on 4/30. I'm only 2 days post op. Doctor says I'm really swollen and that I will drop. He feels certain that I will be happy with end results. Right now I find that hard to believe. I'm very discouraged at the pics. Want to cry all the time. Thinking what did I do!!!
