My surgery is 4 days away! I'm very excited, especially since I've wanted implants for so long. I've decided on 350cc, sub muscular, Sientra moderate. I'm very pleased with my surgeon, Dr. Case in Tucson. After reading several reviews and a comfortable consultation I decided to go with him. My pre-op went well two days ago. I started this journey wanting 275cc but after months of research I decided on another size. I'm very excited about my choice of 350. I think it will fit my body type and the look I'm going for. As much time as I spend lifting weights (over my body weight heavy) I've reconciled that a break is necessary. I have more than enough help with my kids for two weeks. They are under the age of 6.

I also lift and am going to go over the muscle. Did you debate between the two?

Please check prior response :)

I hope you did your research about the sub muscular position. I know it was necessary for my breasts to look natural on my thin frame, but I am very athletic and the distortion when I flex my chest is crazy- so much so that I only work out my chest in private. MY breasts move so much when I do pushups or anything using my pec. It is so weird but I am getting used to it. Good Luck girl!

Wasn't an option for me since I have a maternal Grandma and aunt with breast cancer. Well, they beat it actually. I wanted clear mammograms in the future:) I mostly do weightlifting, clean and jerk and snatch. Not a lot of pressing during training days. I have a Crossfitting friend that got under the muscle as well and she has had zero issues. Hope this answers your feedback. I'm loopy from the pain meds lol

I'm also planning on 275 cc (smallest my frame can get). What made you change to 350? I'm starting as a barely C, very muscular, but am probably slightly larger frame than you. Yours fit you perfect and you probably don't want to be any smaller which has got me thinking!

The difference in 25 cc's is a barely noticeable difference. I kept researching and side angles is what really changed my mind. I didn't think I would be happier in the long run with a smaller implant. The more I heal after surgery the happier I get about going bigger. I'm 5'5, slender frame and I think it's the right size for me. No regrets! Thank you!

Smooth or texturized? If you liked the way 350 looked with the sizers you might want to go for 385 because you will end up losing volume because you are going under the muscle. I jumped my size up at the very last minute because of this, I didn't want the dreaded boob envy, and I am so happy that I did. What size are you now? What size would you like to be? You look fantastic by the way. That Flat toned stomach!

I am excited for you!!

Thanks for the feedback Julia! I'm getting smooth implants. Jumping up more would be hard for me since I thought I was sticking with 275cc's:) I vary in bra sizes so i really couldn't say. Around 32B on a good day I'm guessing. I basically live in sports bras lol There's no size in particular that id like. I really want to regain fullness from nursing for so long. Check back soon because my surgery is in 3 days!
