I just had my 50 birthday. I have always been self conscious of my breasts. I have considered breast augmentation for years but I have always talked myself out of it. Trying to convince myself that it was a silly waste of money and it didn't matter. I wear 34 A but the truth is its probably AA because I don't fill out the A. But with a padded A it looks a little better. So I think I look worse as I have gotten older. I was embarrassed at my age. I got it in my head that I was too old to care about this, after all I have lived with it this long. But recently I decided that I still have a lot of living left to do and I want to feel good about myself. If I think of not going through with it this time, it makes me sad. I know that if I keep putting it off I wont do it. After all, Im not going to have implants when Im in my 60. So I feel like it's now or never. And the more I research it and the more I talk to others about it the more excited I am. Before, it seemed like this unattainable thing, but currently I know 4 gals who have had it done and love it. So why not. The journey begins. Due to financial reasons, I probably wont schedule the surgery for some time. Maybe about 6 months. But, I have waited this long, right!!! I'm now in the process of looking for a good board cert. plastic surgeon. Easier said than done. My first consult was a huge disappointment. I went to a dr with very high reviews and I felt rushed and that he wasn't that interested in helping me :( I'm going to be picky! I have waited so long for this. I know that this time, I'm going to go through with it. I'm so excited at the thought of having nice breasts. I hate the way they look. I probably will not be able to post pics on here. The thought of it stresses me out! I'm so embarrassed of them. I have never wanted large breasts, just nice full round boobs. My breasts are barely more than a nipple. My husband of 13 yrs is so sweet about it. He knows how much it means to me, but he is worried that someone might think I'm doing it for him. This is not the case, although I'm sure it will help our relationship because it has certainly affected my self esteem. I wish I didn't care as much as I do. But, I want to feel good about myself. I have 2 adult daughters and much of their childhood I was a single mom. So I feel like it's my time is now.

Great news that you found a doctor you like! What did you discuss as far as sizing, implant type, etc?

I just want a better shape and more fullness,not so much large breast. I have very little breast tissue, I'm looking forward to actually filling out
a bra! He suggested 250 cc
sulicone under the muscle.

I was happy with this because. all of the pics I have looked at were 250,I didn't tell him that initially so I was impressed that he understood exactly what I wanted
wanted. My fist consult seemed

Oops I meant the first dr I met with seemed to try to talk me into a bigger size and incusion site that he wanted. I knew U was going. to have to keep looking and I'm so glad I did. I feel luke I can trust this dr !

I think it's great to consult with several doctors. Good for you! If you have time, it would be great to see some of your wish boob pictures. Sometimes this gives the community a better idea of the look you're trying to achieve and then we can also comment better on size too!

This is the time for you. I am one of the ones that said I did not want a boob job....but, I was not 50 at that time. To tell you the truth I had just thought about it earlier this year and I'm one that when I make my mind up I can talk to mama about it....the two of us can make it happen. Im happy for you. I will say a prayer that your finance part of this will be no problem and you want even miss that money.
At first I felt guilty about wanting to do this but, there is nothing wrong with wanting to look and feel your best at any age. I take care of the rest of my body, I workout eat right, take care of my skin......I would look down at the old girls and it look like the nipples were looking up at me like eyes and they were saying WHAT ABOUT US. There was no cream or exercise I could do to help them. Now I feel like I have given them life and in turn that gives me a boost in my life.
We are here for you with the count down and after. Keep us posted and no question is a stupid question.

Thank you so much clippinchick! I am second guessing myself lately, this was very timely :) I agree can relate to your comment about taking care of yourself. I too workout eat right try to do everything I can to take care of myself. but all the chest exercises I can do are not going to help "the girls' :) Again thank you so much! And prayers are definitely appreciated! I will keep you posted :)

I've done a liposuction some mounths ago. Like you, I thought "Now or Never". My body's shape was a problem since my youth. Finally, I decided to take some action. And this summer I had the figure of my golden dreams. I 've done it in Athens, Greece for financial reasons ( cost was less than half).
The only thing that I want to say to you is "Do it for you. Not for the others. Just for you"! Good Luck & enjoy it !
