I'm 41, 5'9 150 lbs, never had kids, i run several times a week and lift weights. I lost about 25 lbs a couple of years ago and my boobs deflated from a very full C to a tiny 36B. I have a fairly large frame with wide shoulders and hips. My breasts have always been uneven and it is very visible in gym clothes, swimsuits, and certain fitted shirts making me self conscious.

Next week I am hoping to finalize the plan of whether or not to have the lift on the super saggy left one. I was so nervous at the last consult and freaked out and said no on the lift. However after much support from my amazing husband (that directed me to this site) and hours of both of us reading and researching other experiences and seeing so many great results I am not so sure I will get the best result without it. Re. size I was initially thinking 275-300 because of running and i don't want giant boobs hindering that in the future. My husband made a series of rice sizers and we tested those with different bras and shirts. Now I think I need to go bigger to get the look I want.

I am nervous and excited. I'm already having trouble sleeping obsessing about it and I am two weeks out. I have never had any type of surgery, no broken bones, no major illness. Having an elective surgery terrifies me. I don't want to mess things up. I hope to get the best possible result in one shot and not have to do anything else. I don't want to have to go in again to fix the sag or go too small and look weird in my semi-large frame.

Almost forgot! I also have a lump in my smaller breast that my radiologist and gynecologist have been watching. I just had mammograms and ultrasound Tuesday still think it's some encapsulated tissue and nothing necessary to address. But they did suggest under the muscle to be able to monitor it easier in the future.

I really like the look she has.

Surgery was at 9:00 am today. I was super groggy and slept most of the day. I felt like someone was sitting on my chest and my breathing has been short quick breaths. That is improving already this evening. The doctor ended up using Mentor mod+ silicone gel 400cc left, 425cc right. Decided to wait on mastoplexy for now to see result without it. I feel OK for now, still on pain meds.

My husband has been a fantastic nurse and I really can't ask for more. We have the wedge pilows, he set up a bedside table of necessities and a bell so I can get his attention easily. I've been able to eat a few crackers and I'm trying to drink plenty of water. He snapped a pic in recovery but that is all I can muster today. I will share more when I can stand longer. I get dizzy quick. From what I can see so far I am happy with size and shape already.
