I have been waiting years to get implants. I started developing and then just stopped, likely tied to my PCOS. Even when I was heavy, my breasts were never large. When I was pregnant, my breasts never got any bigger either. As I've lost close to 100 pounds now, what little I had have slowly gone away - especially with working out. I feel very manly with my chest muscles and small breasts and I hate that I don't fill out shirts, dresses and swimsuits. I'm super nervous, but very excited!

Finally someone on here in the year 2016. Most stories are from last year. You commented on my page. I am a day ahead of you. You may feel more tension and stretch because you got bigger implants. Mine are on the smaller side. Good luck to you and I hope after the soften and drop, you will love them. Keep in touch wit your progress

Thank you so much! I can't wait for them to drop, although I'm loving this cleavage with them being so high. Haha. I have really loved Dr Tholen and his entire staff/team. He comes well reviewed on here and I had two personal recommendations for him.

I can't believe how soon the surgery is! I've bought my post-surgery stuff - ice packs, colace, button up shirts, and Hibiclens. Tonight I'm going to move all my hair stuff down and get my new clothes situated. I got all my meds already, except for the narcotic pain meds, which my hubby will pick up while I'm under.

Not going to lie, I'm freaking out a little bit. I've never had anesthesia and so I have no idea what to expect. I'm already planning on it being the most painful thing ever. Yikes! It's so close.

Still haven't figured out my size. Know I'm going moderate, silicone, under the muscle, round. Liked 385cc, but hubby thought bigger. I have a sizing appointment right before my surgery to determine the final size. Here's me with rice bags at 400cc. Probably around this size. It's so hard to tell!!
