36 year old Mom of 2, Active and Fit Looking for My Lost Boobs... - Orlando, FL

I have debated writing my little story on here but after reading many, many other experiences by the awesome women on this site I figured I would tell you all a little bit about me. If there is a chance my experience may help someone with their journey, then it is worth it.

Let me start by telling you all a little about me. I am 36 (very soon to be 37) and I have a wonderful husband and two beautiful children (6 and 3). I work full time and am required to be physically fit for my job. I love working out specifically running and doing CrossFit. In my 20's I loved my boobs. I was a 34 full C cup and I often had people ask me if my boobs were real. I loved the way they looked in clothing and bathing suits and never had an issue with them. Fast forward about ten years and I have since breast fed two little babies for the first few months of their lives. It was the best decision I ever made and I would never go back and change my decision to breastfeed. But after feeding two babies, my boobs were left in a less than perky state. Add in two years of CrossFit and weighlifting after my youngest was one, and I feel like all I have left are two deflated pancakes on my chest. I am probably in close to the best shape of my life right now and I have to say that I feel self conscious anytime I put on a bathing suit, tank top, and sometimes even t-shirts. I cannot find a bra to fit me without having the cup bulge in an unnatural way, or find a bathing suit that even gives me any cleavage no matter how much padding it has.

I never thought I would consider breast augmentation given the boobs I had in my 20's. But after about five years with these flap jacks I am more than ready to get some life back into them. I began researching breast augmentation here in Orlando, Fl. We have some great doctors here and I actually know quite a few women who have had the surgery who offered me great information on local plastic surgeons. I had three consultations with three different doctors. One made me feel like I was at an assembly plant manufacturing and implanting boobs into women with a doctor who had no concern for me or what I wanted, another tried to talk me into procedures that I know I do not need and would cost me much more money, and a third was just the perfect fit for me from the second I was greeted by the receptionist on the phone to set up my initial consultation. Dr. Clifford Clark's office pretty much had me at hello. His entire office staff have been amazing and both he and his nurse Lorra have both taken the time to really get to know me to understand what I am looking for and how Dr. Clark can help me achieve what I want. I left his office feeling 110% comfortable and confident in my decision to do this and to have him do this for me.

Since I am very active and have a large amount of well developed pectoral muscle, Dr. Clark has recommended going about the muscle. I am looking to do either 350 or 375 ccs, silicone implants, through an inframammary incision. I have my pre-op appointment on Thursday and have put a downpayment down for surgery on February 25th. Looking forward to hearing from some other ladies who may be similar physically to me and share the same procedure details. I am getting so excited/nervous for the big day that is less than three weeks from now!!! I'm so glad I found this website... it has been such a great source of information!!!

Here are a few before pics of my deflated girls... Looking forward to my pre-op appointment on Thursday to narrow down specifics of my upcoming surgery :)

Ok just a quick update. I had my pre-op last Thursday and had all my final questions answered. I was given prescriptions for antibiotics, pain medicine and anti-nausea medicine. I left nervous but so excited to finally be getting this done. I am so happy but starting to feel like this is all surreal. I think I just can't believe that I am actually going through with this! I've wanted it for so long and have been thinking about it for so long that I just can't believe in less than two weeks I will be on the other side :) We have decided that I will be getting either 350 or 375 Mentor Siltex silicone textured implants. The day of surgery, my doctor will make the final decision based on how they look inside. I can't wait and don't know how I am going to make it through the next two weeks at work lol!
