I am off to Phuket, Thailand, in late November 2014 for what I'm hoping will be the trip of a lifetime, in a positive way. I'm getting a breast augmentation to take me from an A to a DD. I'm also getting a labiaplasty to get rid of some embarrassing unevenness. Then there's the not as obvious (or exciting) but no less important dental work- 4 wisdom teeth to go!
I'm terrified but so excited at the same time. I've never had surgery, and I've never travelled.
Looking forward to sharing my journey and hearing from other people who've has similar experiences!

Bit of background...
LELadyAugust 14, 2014
So I've always been conscious that I didn't have what a lot of other girls had. Starting from swimming lessons in Year 5 or 6 when other girls bodies started changing and the crop tops started getting worn, I had that envy. I always hoped things would changed, however I got taller, my hips got broader, but no boobs!
I'd joked about getting a BA from about 16, but went through phases of body hate where I considered it much more seriously.
That being said, I refused to get my ears pierced for years because I thought I was subjecting myself to pain and disfigurement simply to attempt to fit a social norm and make myself attractive to men... Then I turned 12 and decided the only pretty earrings were for pierced ears and I kinda wanted them... lol.
So the thought of spending thousands of dollars to put some fake object into my body for purely cosmetic reasons just didn't sit right with me. It still doesn't really, but its come to a point that it is outweighed but the negativity I feel about myself generally.
The turning point came a couple of years ago when I met my ex's family and friends... Specifically, one of his "best friends", who physically launched herself at him when she saw him. So I had this skinny-in-a-borderline-too-skinny-but-so-long-kinda-way-you-cant-stop-staring, blonde, tanned, 19 year old cheerleader with the biggest, perfect, REAL boobs, IN HER UNDERWEAR (like WTF??), hanging off my boyfriend... She made it clear that it was a competition that I hadn't even realised I was in.
It was driving home alone afterwards that I bawled my eyes out so much I had to pull over, and called a plastic surgeon from the side of the road and booked the soonest appointment.
And that is how all this came to be.

I'm terribly sorry you had to experience that! It's very heart breaking and no one should hate themselves because their significant other was thinking with their genitals LOL. I bet this experience will bring you to someone who BETTER! Someone who will love you for your beauty, personality and flaws. :) best of wishes!

First plastic surgeon visit
LELadyAugust 14, 2014
I visited a local plastic surgeon, who was lovely. Very calming, not too smooth and not judgmental. I had originally thought I wanted anatomical implants under the muscle, because I didn't want to look pornstar fake and and I wanted to feel more secure with them under than over. The PS suggested however that I go round and over the muscle. His reasoning was that I have next to no tissue in the upper pole, and round implants would come closer to correcting that. In terms of over the muscle, he said there was no real point disturbing all the muscle if I didn't have to.
"I would usually suggest under for women who are very skinny, to mask the outline of the implant. You have got enough...tissue... to hide that line just fine, so I would suggest over the muscle. You could be back to work in a week".
I know what his point was, but standing there half naked I still tried to suck my gut in.
I said that I was concerned about them rupturing. He laughed and pulled out one of the implants. He threw it on the ground, stood up, and stomped on it several times. Not a concern, he said. I appreciated the demonstration, and appreciated that he didn't just coo at me and tell me the chances were minimal, because I wouldn't have been particularly convinced.
In terms of size... Oh I wish I could remember. He said a size, and then sat and looked and looked at me for a sec. I said "I'm pretty big..." And he said "Mmmm you're right", and added another 50 or so cc's on to what he was thinking. I might have to give them a call and get them to check my file...
He quoted me $10,000 and told me he could fit me in in the next fortnight.
I spoke about it with the boyfriend who was very much against it... We didn't last long. I still put it off for longer with money and things like that though. Until now...
