Turning 30, 1 Kiddo, Have Been Wanting Implants Since He Was Born - Reno, NV

WORTH IT$5,500
Back story: I am a 29 yr old single mom to a 7 yr old, aka as my Mini. I have been wanting implants since he was a baby. Pre kiddo I was a big perky b. After breast feeding, my chest became flat. I almost got a BA 4 years ago, but decided to wait in case I had more children. I told myself a couple years ago that if I didn't have more kiddos by the time I was 30, I was done and getting my girls. That time has come!
I am a big fitness fanatic and currently work out Mon-Fri doing everything from Spin, TRX, Cardio and working with a trainer one day a week. I know I can do cardio after two weeks, but not being able to do TRX or a full workout with my trainer for 6 weeks to 2 months bums me out a bit. Especially since I am convinced I will gain the post op anesthesia/pain med bloat.
Goal size is roughly 400 CC. I am going to let my surgeon pick what works best for my weight, height and shape. I am doing Saline, but going back and forth between moderate plus and high profile. Once again, probably going to let him pick on that. April 24th cannot get here soon enough!

Your breasts look beautiful now, do you think you need augmentation? You have a fabulous body already.

Oh you are so sweet-those aren't mine! Those are just my wish pics-I'm an a cup right now. Hope they look like that after :)

Oh ok...I am new to this site, so still trying to figure out how it all works. I like your wish pics! Well, best of luck with your surgery!

Haha thanks! No worries-I joined a couple months ago & thought the same thing at first. Good luck on your surgery too!

Hey - I highly recommend silicone, I was afraid they would be too hard and not as natural as saline but they feel pretty normal to me even so soon after surgery! i know I was very back and forth and wished I knew people's opinions so I figured I'd offer mine! Either way - you will be so happy! No regrets thus far!

Thank you for the advice! As much as I love the look of silicone & the "real feel", I'm not comfortable with the idea that the gel could slowly leaking into my body for years & I wouldn't know about it until I got an MRI. Having a foreign object (even though I've wanted these for years) in my body is a big step for me. If something goes wrong, I want to know right away. Now...I might switch when it's time for a redo as silicone does look amazing! Luckily my plastic surgeon makes saline look awesome. Thank you again-It's nice to hear other girls thoughts, especially from someone who already had theirs done!

Yea that's a valid point!! Good luck - can't wait to see your progress!! It's really weird - like looking at someone else's chest on your body !!! Your wish boobs actually will be your boobs!! Best of luck!!

Haha I hope my wish boobs become my real boobs! & I hope mine look as good as yours so quickly. Even more, I really really hope I am one of those girls that has a good & easy recovery! Your recovery posts are very helpful by the way-it's nice to read what to expect & what helps (like alternating muscle relaxers & pain meds, Motrin & ice packs!).

Oh that's great! That is definitely why I'm putting my business out there so I'm glad it helped!!

Missing workouts was the hardest part of my whole recovery. I will tell you that the sooner you start back the better. I was supposed to wait three weeks but cheated a bit by a few days and I'm so glad I did. It actually helped catapult my recovery. After my first workout which I took very slow and carefully I distinctly remember how loose and great I felt. I recovered way faster than many of my friends who had BA but waited months to start back up. I think when you are at such a high level fitness wise your body is expecting that from you as part of the recovery. I'm four months post op and can finally do real push-ups again and that feels amazing since it was the one exercise I love but had to wait on. Listen to your body...some things you think you can't do will surprise you that you can and others you may need to wait. Good luck just ease back into it!

Totally agree! My water weight for about two weeks after surgery was just ridiculous and was everywhere. Then it just fell off one day. Hard for workout buffs to get used to but do t sweat it!

I'm still a month out from my surgery date. It feels really far away yet right around the corner at the same time. My pre op is in a few weeks & I can't wait to finally discuss size. Here are a couple that I really like.

During your consultation were you able to try on sizes?! Kinda weird I didn't do it. Maybe because I didn't ask. I'm not sure.
March 25, 2015
No-not in the consultation! I didn't ask, but we did look at his photos of past clients & talked about what I liked, size wise. I've just changed my mind a cajillion times haha. We'll do the sizes at the pre-op though!
Try not to focus on the post op weight gain. It happens but it also subsides and disappears within 2 weeks. You will always be able to work out but you don't want to sacrifice your new look during your healing time. ;) Easier said than done! Feel free to post some pre op or even wish boob pictures in your review. Keep us posted!
