Almost 2 Months

Goal & Motivation Behind Surgery:
To finally feel like a real lady and stop being so self conscious.

I've consider this surgery over ten years. I have been saving up for the procedure for a very long time. I'm hoping it all goes well and I don't regret it. I've researched for a very long time. Kept up with Realself success stories and horror stories. I have weighed the risks.

Cons:
- Downtime - no working out for a short period of time :(
- No more butterflies exercises
- COST
- Possible negative feedback and people thinking less of me after they find out about it
- Foreign objects inside of my body

Pros:
- Finally going to feel like a lady!!
- Improve symmetry
- No more worrying about how many layers I need to wear on top to even out the flat chest with the curves below.
- Clothes will finally fit me on top!


Unknowns I'm worried about:
- Choosing the correct size for my lifestyle and my size
- Pain and reaction of going under anesthesia
- How my boyfriend will react - he knows, but he's worried I might go too big or too small.

I'm feeling pretty good right now that I've schedule my surgery date. I almost backed out of the whole thing after reading the explant part of realself.com and had a nightmare of my boobs all distorted.

As of now, I recently have decide to go with 300cc on the left and 250cc on the right. I was going back and forth on: 275cc/255cc or 300cc/250cc. I tried on the sizers for the 300cc/250cc.. thought they were still large. Tried on 250cc/200cc - my breasts didn't look as symmetrical as it did with the larger size. They didn't have a 275cc on hand so I didn't get to try it out.

I've learned a lot on this site. Everyone will have different experiences and results. But as long as you know what to expect COULD happen, you'll be fine. I love how ladies have put a to do list before the surgery - if you have tips please share.

So far the tips I have picked up are:

• Complete chores & errands before surgery
• Have soup and food ready for the next fews months
• Buy some frozen peas to help the swelling
• Have my netflix que ready to go to be a bum for at least a week
• Start wearing lose clothing and padded bras to work, and try to wear scarfs to cover them up...
• Buy button up shirts and have hooded sweatshirts ready to go.

Thank you for everyone who has posted - you have helped with my decision.
