I have been a frequent visitor of this site, ever since the beginning of May of this year, but I have looked on here many times before. Like many, I was ridiculed for my size. I wanted nothing more than to have big boobs (or at least, bigger!) growing up. I remember wanting my period to start so that I could start to look more feminine, even tho I grew up a tomboy. It was something I became obsessed with for many years growing up. My fiancee has always says he loves them how they are, and he has made me feel more beautiful than I feel I deserve at times. I kept making comments about getting BAS for years (we've been together 9 years), but it wasn't until this year that it was feasible financially. I thought a lot about it before agreeing (even making a pro/con list...yea, I'm like that lol). I didn't want to do it for the wrong reasons. I told myself that I wouldn't do it until I loved who I was first. So I started wearing less padding; down to no bra at all! And I felt pretty good. I became comfortable with who I was. So comfortable, I thought maybe BAS was unnecessary! I figured out what to wear to look nice on my figure, but there were always things that I liked but felt I couldn't wear because of my size. I was ok with that, but it was disappointing. When we decided to have the surgery, I started wearing larger pushup bras to hopefully not make it so obvious, and I found that I really loved the way I looked when I wore them. Surgery scares me...but I am hoping it will be worth it! I have a surgery scheduled with Dr. Ringler on the 19th of this month. Did anyone else have second thoughts before their surgery, or feel really nervous/scared?

These are my pre pictures! Unfortunately, I am really bloated (monthly fun), but you get the idea. I'll also post inspiration pics.

Thanks for sharing your story to inspire others in a similar situation to make the best decision for themselves. There's a great discussion on this forum about nerves before BA :)

Congrats on feeling comfy in your own skin! You basically have written down everything I have going on, including the boyfriend of 9 years and the tomboy growing up and the list! The only difference is I am 32 and have a child with my beau lol. May I ad that you have the coolest moles on your stomach! They remind me of Orion's Belt!

Here are some of my inspiration pics. Plan for surgery is 330ccs filled to 360cc, with the ideal implants, transaxillary. My concern is trying to find that balance b/w big enough to make the surgery worth it vs too big and awkward. I know that a lot of women after surgery say that they could've gone bigger, and I don't want to have that thought...

300cc Filled to 375cc Ideal Implants. Day 1!!

Well it happened! Believe it or not! Somehow it still doesn't seem real. Surgery was 8am, and we had a 2 hr drive to get there. I basically didn't sleep at all last night...to excited and nervous! I will say I was ecstatic that I have felt no nausea whatsoever. I had soup from panera afterwards, as well as a sand which and a bagel spread out over time. When I first woke up I was in quite a bit of pain. The worst part was that I was shivering uncontrollably. I was given meds for it but my stats dropped a bit so I stayed longer in the hospital. The 2 hr drive home was the perfect time to take a nap, and I felt so good afterwards! Below are the pics of day 1. I will keep it updated! Let me know if you have any questions.
