I have wanted a breast reduction since I was 15. I am currently 34H (UK) and around 150 lbs. I have managed to lose weight over the last few months as I was 175 lbs in January. Initially I wanted to get to 145 lbs before the surgery but that's looking very unlikely :-(. I'm worried my stomach will be more noticeable once the girls are gone!

Hello I am scheduled for Oct 29 so I hear you :) keep calm and a few deep breaths if you wake up in the middle if the night thinking about it; it's a major event so nerves are normal! I have a tummy also but found that limiting the amount if sugar/carbs very good and east for losing a few kgms as well as doing some exercise.

Yes totally -hopefully we'll be healing fast and have nice high sitting boobies :) So over these heavy boobs!!!

I just had a reduction 3 weeks ago and my tummy is slightly more noticeable but I think it will be easier to exercise now that I don't have those things bouncing all over the place. So far I am so happy I did it.

I've wanted this for so long so I'm trying to just think of the positive!

Hi guys. My first post was rushed so I'll give you more of a background.

I'm 26 years old and I have had large breasts since 13. I've always been unhappy with my shape as I have soooo much boob and no bottom :-(.
I'm due to have my surgery in a week and I cannot wait however I don't want to get too excited as I know the scars are a consideration as I'm having the traditional anchor scar. My surgeon prefers this method for me as I'll get a better shape.

I am so glad that I have found this site as the only other person I can talk to about it is my mum as most of my friends don't know I'm having the procedure. I don't want to be talked out of it.
Anyway I'll leave it at that for now

Speak soon lol

Ldn, don't be nervous. The waiting is the worse part, honestly. I had the anchor scar and I've had very little pain. My surgery was on the 16th. I am healing really well and just sitting around watching the telly. My surgeon said if I did nothing but rest for 2 weeks after the surgery I would have a great recovery. So far, so good. I am so excited for you. New you -- here you come! :-)

Day of treatment

Hi guys!!
I had my surgery yesterday and right now I'm laying in my hospital bed.
Let me give you a rundown of what happened....
I got to the hospital at 7am and got checked into my room. I had a chance to relax and my mother and I watched some TV. Mr Ng came to do his drawings at 8:20 than the anaesthetist came an hour or so later.
I got to choose my lunch and dinner after surgery and being a major foodie and having spent £2000 on one night I wanted my money's worth! Lol. Unfortunately that didn't happen :-(
When I was in the recovery room my right breast got swollen and it became apparent that I had a haemotoma. I had to go back to theatre to have it drained. I lost a lot of blood and I am to have 4.5 litres before I leave. I am currently having my third litre. I also have a catheter which is great as I'm normally too lazy to go toilet anyway lol.
When I FINALLY got back to my room I had half a tuna sandwich, a few bites of a salad and some rice pudding. So much for my feast of steak and chips! (Chips= fries for my Americans)

I haven't seen my breasts but I feel soooo light. My surgeon really takes his time with stitching so I anticipate decent scars.

Will check in with you guys again when I get home [RS bleep]
