Ready to Remove Uncomfortable Silicone Implants! - Michigan, MI

I have 450cc silicone implants under the muscle. I had lost some weight and wanted to fill out my breasts more, and told the surgeon I wanted to go from a B cup to a D cup. I had used rice sizers and was thinking maybe 300cc, but when I went in for my consult the assistant told me that she had 500cc implants and that it doesn't look too big for an athletic build. The surgeon recommend 450cc, and they both said that almost everyone wishes that they went larger, and that even though it looked big to me, I would adjust after a year. Well I went from a B to a DDD and I was not happy, and still am not happy even 5 years later. I wish I had trusted myself more, and I wish that I hadn't been so insecure. I really did it because I thought my boyfriend at the time would be more attracted to me, because he didn't really like smaller breasts and would make comments about how small my breasts looked in certain clothes.

Now I am sick of how uncomfortable the implants are, I can feel my muscle squeezing them when I work out, and at the end of the day my chest is so sore from how heavy they are. My underwire bra is always digging in from the weight, but wireless bras are excruciating to wear because there isn't enough support and the underside of my breasts get extremely sore. On top of that, finding shirts is a nightmare and I feel like no matter what I wear, all I see is my chest and it's impossible to hide. I'll add pictures later. I was so embarrassed about how big they turned out that I never told anyone except my then-boyfriend.

I am scheduled to have the implants removed 2 weeks from now and I am so excited and nervous. I am paying someone at the surgeon's office to drive me, but I don't have anyone to stay with me after surgery because I don't want to tell any of my friends. I think I should be OK though, I didn't need any help when I had the implants put in and this is supposed to be less painful.

I know I'm gonna be pretty saggy, but that's what push up bras are for anyway. It will be worth it to feel comfortable again and not be embarrassed about my chest. And if I ever date anyone who gives me a hard time about my breasts again, I'll dump him! LOL

Thanks for everyone who has shared on here, it helped me make my decision to be natural again :)

Just adding a photo of what they look like now. Nothing wrong with them or anything, but I feel like they take up soooo much room on my chest, out of proportion to the rest of me. And they are uncomfortable, especially when I'm working out or running.

I've also had a lot of lower back pain the past 2 years and I think it could be from over-arching my back to help support the weight of the implants? In any case the implants are uncomfortable and even though I think I'm going to be pretty small and saggy after removing them, it will be worth it to be more comfortable and to feel like myself again!

Geez, I would totally be happy if I could look like this again. You can't tell how saggy I was, but it wasn't THAT bad! This is the body I felt ashamed of just because my ex said my boobs were small?!?!? I feel embarrassed that I did this to myself just to feel more attractive. I spent a lot of money, but on the plus side I think that doing this played a part in helping me not to worry about what someone else thinks of my body. So I guess from that perspective at least I got a valuable lesson out of it!
