My surgery day is almost here and I can't believe I'll have boobs in 1 week! I'm an A cup looking to go to C cup. I've always been active my entire life and never disliked my boobs but three years ago my desire to have bigger boobs spurred me to research breast augmentation and I considered it and fantasized about the idea but the desire kind of faded as life got in the way. Well…my desire for bigger boobs resurfaced 2 months ago in a big way. That's when I found RealSelf and after reading all your amazing stories and gaining so much valuable information I realized I was finally in a place in my life that I could do something to help me look good and feel good about myself. Don't get me wrong, I have no issues with self esteem and I have a wonderful husband that loves me just the way I am. I just feel like it would be great to have bigger boobs and it would enhance what I already have. So my journey begins and I'm excited to share my story with you!

I'm getting excited and nervous for my surgery. It feels surreal that I'm only 3 days away from boobies! I'm in total prep mode trying to get everything ready for recovery. I keep thinking that I'm going to be completely incapacitated after surgery but my PS told me that I would probably not need pain meds after 2-3 days and that breast augmentation is nothing compared to the bunion surgery I had 2 yrs ago in terms of recovery so I'm hoping he's right and my recovery won't be nearly as bad as I'm imagining. I've posted pictures of my post-recovery arsenal and listed the instructions for dosing. These supplements were recommended by my naturopathic doctor to help with healing.

Post-Surgery Supplements:
1) Omegagenics EPA/DHA 720 fish oil (omega-3s) to reduce inflammation. Dose: 2 caps twice daily with food. *Start these after surgery and make sure you discontinue fish oil at least 1 week prior to surgery since it has blood thinning properties.
2) Wobenzyme PS to reduce adhesions, swelling and scar tissue. Dose: 2 caps three times daily away from food. *Start this 2 days before surgery and continue after surgery until bottle is finished (4-6 weeks).
3) First Intention: blend of vitamins and herbs that ensures your body has adequate levels for healing tissue and managing the stress of surgery.

5) Innate Foods probiotic 200-14 7-Day Intensive Probiotics to replenish the healthy gut bacteria that can get wiped out from antibiotics. Dose: 1 cap once daily in the morning before food or at night before bed.

your tongue every 3 hours while awake.
