Hey everyone.
I am 26 years old, 5'2", 150lbs, and a large 32J cup.
My breasts haven't stopped growing since I was 9.
When I was in 7th grade I was a C-cup, borrowing my mother's bras. When I was a freshman in highschool, I was a D cup. By the time I graduated high school in 2007, I was an F cup. Now, since then, between changing birth controls and weight gain (which was caused by the birth control), they just ballooned up.
Being so young and so buxom, I was bullied all the time. Sexually harassed by my classmates, rumors spreading that I was a [RS bleep], pregnant, a junkie, you name it. Even now, being a server, they are always the center of attention. Someone will write things like, "Nice [RS bleep]" on the credit slip, or use the ziosk to not comment on the food or service, but to write about how big my breasts are. If see one more freakin' review about my boobs instead of my service I'm gonna burn the place down!
OMG. I need this to stop!!!
Not only are they emotionally exhausting, but physically as well.
One of my legs grew longer than the other, giving me scoliosis in my lumbars. To compensate for it, my body decided it was going to curve the other way too. So, having scoliosis and the weight of my chest pitching me further forward over time...not a good combo. I don't think theres ever been a time when my neck or back didn't hurt. I constantly have headaches that last for days.
Bras in my size cost around $80, in the mid range. I can't really afford that.
Sports bras? Forget it. If it's in my band size, it's not big enough for my breasts. If it fits my breast, it's too big for the rest of me, so no support. If I sleep without a bra on, when I turn over they get caught underneath me, and I wake up with sore boobies. I've had a rash called "tinea versicolor" under my boobs for four years from my sweaty ladies. Nothing fits right. I'm almost literally being crushed by my own tatas.

My PCP gave me a referral to a PS, who I'm seeing on thursday. I hope all goes well, and my insurance approves the reduction. Because honestly, I'm about to go Amazon Lady Warrior on everyone's ass and just chop them off.

Sorry to ask but which birth controls did you try out and switch to and from?

I was on implanon from 2010 to 2013, went on to the nexplanon (next Gen implanon) and had that up until about 7 months ago. I changed because the nexplanon didn't agree with my body in SO many ways. Lol. So I switched to Xulane (generic Ortho Evra) which gave me a terrible rash at the patch site, and now I've been on nuvaring for the last 4 months. But both times I switched BC the ladies just got a little bigger.

Do you get to pick the size you want or do they usually just do what's proportionate?

With my insurance there's a minimum of 300 grams from each breast according to my BMI. But if I wanted to be a B cup I could request to be a B cup. Even so, your final size cant really be determined until about 4-6 months after the procedure, after all the swelling goes down. My doctor said I would probably be a C cup after, but I'm putting my hypothetical money on a D cup.

It doesn't matter how pretty they are when they give you medical problems. When they invent cloud boobs I'll get them back.

Went to see the PS Thursday. He took some pictures and showed me some before and after pictures. Said he wouldn't have a problem removing the required 300 grams from each breast. Said I would probably end up a big C. Just waiting for approval from insurance. Fingers crossed!

Haha thanks but they're very heavy! If my boobs were made of cotton balls I wouldn't be as inclined to do it, and I am very short waisted so they make me look 20lbs heavier than I really am! When they were DDs I loved them, but now that I'm an H-J cup, I'm ready to be done with them!

I got my surgery papers today in the mail! I wasn't sure if that meant my insurance had approved, so I called the office.
Sure enough, the lady who would have called me to tell me it had been approved was on vacation, and the lady in her stead found my approval papers and confirmed.
When I got off the phone I screamed! I scared both my cats off the bed. Then I started crying with happiness and called my mom and she also screamed! lol. My pre-op appointment is October 23rd. Time to hit the grindstone at work and start hustling those tables!!
