Alright. After 4 years of waiting I am FINALLY getting my breast reduction! :D
I have had large breasts since I started developing. I was in a training bra for only about 3 weeks then I went straight to a 34C. Did I mention I was in the 5th grade? Ya. Not ok. Since then (i'm 22 now) it has been a steady increase to what I currently am; a 34FF. I do have a 5 month old, but in all honesty my breast didn't grow at all even while I was breast feeding. They just got really hard. Thankfully I just found out that Tricare has authorized the claim so now i'm just waiting for the Dr's office to receive the fax saying to schedule my surgery!! I'm so flippin' excited I just wanted to share my experience. :]

Going under the knife August 14th :] Cannot wait. Although I'm curious. Has anyone who's gotten this surgery felt like they made a mistake of going too small? I told my doctor I would be happy being a B but he said he didn't think I would be so happy. It's just hard to decide because I just cannot see myself smaller lol I know I should trust my doctor but I can be a second guesser.

I had mine 3 days ago. 2 pounds taken from each side - I can't believe I carted that around. My surgeon says I will probably be a full B...which is fine with me. My fear was to come out of surgery and think that I was still too big. Too small, I could deal with. Pain is not as bad as I would have expected. More tired than anything.

Ya, I don't want to come out too big. I would hate to go through all that & then come out not liking the result. & that's awesome! :]

Waiting sucks.

Only 29 days until surgery!! Having such a struggle trying to lose these last 10 lbs of baby weight because everything I do hurts my back & neck. My chiropractor told me there's no point in my coming in until after my surgery (at least he's honest lol) because he can't help me towards real progress until I stop slouching & correct my posture, so I haven't had that relief in the last couple weeks & it sucks.
Mostly i'm upset because I have worked so hard to lose 30 pounds these last couple months & i'm so close to my goal, it's like it's taunting me.. Did anyone else find exercise easier after reduction surgery? If so, how long did it take to get into a serious work out regiment?
