I will try and get to the point and make my first post short and sweet. I feel like being on here I don't have to explain why I decided to get implants because everyone reading this wont be quick to judge because they probably want a BA or already have one! I loved reading about girls experiences and seeing their progress in pictures. It has really helped me out a ton on deciding what exactly I want and having realistic expectations. So I decided to post my own experience on here to help other girls. After 50 pound weight loss I have lost all volume in my breast and went from a very full C to a small B.
I had my post-op appointment yesterday and my PS and I decided on Mentor Silicone Memory Gel 400cc Moderate Plus Profile. He said that is the biggest I can go without having a ton of side boob and he will place a 400cc sizer in during surgery and if he thinks it looks too big he is going to go with 375cc. He said it should put me at a D/DD cup.

I started taking pre-op supplements I got offline( I did tons of research on the product and what supplements help the best with recovery). You start 2 weeks before and then after surgery I have a post-op supplement kit I take for 30 days.It contains no vitamin E or herbal supplements and I also made sure to get the OK from my PS to use them.

I also got my prescriptions during the appointment. I have
Percocet for pain.
Valium for sleep and muscle relaxation.
Phenergan for nausea.
Augmentin for antibiotic which I will take 1 the day before surgery.
Docusate for a stool softner.

Awesome- good luck with your surgery in 2 weeks- mine is next tuesday 10/8 and I can't wait- full of excitement but yet i'm calm and collective at the same time- Guess I really trust my PS and the fact that he made my recovery seem really easy and simple- I shall see about that... He doesn't want me taking any type of vitamins,minerals, or supplements before or after the surgery though so I'm glad I didn't go out and purchase all the stuff I had on my list to buy. LOL.

I bet your excited being only one week out! I am excited but calm too. That's the best feeling when you have full faith and trust in your PS. Mine made me feel extremely confident in him and also all the perfect reviews about him. Good luck with your BA! :)

Thinking about the negative reactions from people...

User Avatar

As the days are getting closer and closer to my surgery date I am starting to think about how I will get mostly negative reactions from family and friends..or people that I run into in a daily basis. I haven't cared to think about that subject because I don't care what anyone thinks about me getting a BA. I have only told my parents,boyfriend, and a few of my best friends. But then I just started thinking I wont be able to keep it a secret from everyone once I get them done. Not like I would want to hide it anyways. I know I am going to have a whole new glow to me and want to show off the new me as it should be. I just don't care to hear negative things being said and I am not going to sit there and explain why I did it to every single person I run into...which leads to them talking behind my back because they don't understand and that just pisses me off thinking about it.

I wont go into full detail to try and not make this longer than it is but this year I have made a transformation psychically and mentally. I have grown so much as a person and have so much self love now. I found my passion and career path in fitness. It has change the way I think about everything from life to people and everything else. I learned to worry less because it doesn't help the problem in any way, to not judge people because you don't know their life, if I want something and have enough passion I have the power to achieve anything. That's why I honestly don't care what peoples negative opinions are anymore. Since my career will be in fitness I also want to be able to throw on any sports bra and not worry about it having padded inserts and since I worked hard for the body I wanted and have no power to make my boobs bigger naturally then why not get a boob job if it makes me happy?

I learned that if someone is doing something you dont agree with and it doesnt effect your life in any way or endangers their life then you have no right to judge them. Now people are going to say "well you are putting your health at risk by getting a BA." ...I can drop dead right now, get in a car accident tomorrow, get murdered, etc...Does that mean I shouldn't leave my bed and live my life because something bad MIGHT happen? NO. I believe when your time is ready it will happen no matter where you are or what your doing. Anyone should also be smart about it and do their research before and make sure they have a very good PS who cares about your safety before anything anyways. Now do I agree with someone getting a cosmetic procedure because they want to look like someone they idol or they dont have self love and think changing their appearance will make them happy when it actually wont? No it does not and nor does it effect my life in any way and thats why I dont judge them. If something makes you truly happy then do it! Life is too short to be miserable.If you honestly cant sleep at night because someone got a boob job then you need to reevaluate yourself because the real problem is with you.

I feel so relieved just getting my thoughts about this out even if no one reads this.Thank you for reading this far. I hope it helps some girls deal with negative comments differently.

I would love to know if anyone else feels the same way?

Love your last post. I completely agree with you. I think a lot of people say negative things out of jealousy and lack of confidence. I'm slowly going to tell more people closer to my surgery and I know I'm going to get a wide variety at my job. I work at a coffee shop and have been here for a long time and people love to share there opinions about everything I mean everything lol. Someone else just made that same comment to me if it's your time to go it's your time no matter what your doing. I worry a lot but try not to and these bad thoughts go through my head time to time that I'm not gonna wake up after surgery. Your post made me feel way better :) your so positive! I read how your into fitness. I'm kinda worried about bench press and a couple other arm exercises after surgery. Any advice? I know to wait a while but I'm still nervous I'm gonna mess something up. Well good luck on your surgery can't wait to see pictures!

That makes me so happy that my post made you feel better! You just have to trust your PS that your in good hands and they do this procedure probably every day! You inspired me to make a post about fitness post-op so check back tonight and I will have one up for you to read after I get home from work. :)

I'm much like you in the fact that I'm non judge mental and I typically don't care about what "haters" have to say. Unfortunately, there will be people who talk about me and judge me..........just recently I was told that I'm too vain. Yes, I get Botox, yes, ive had filler. Yes, I'm getting breasts. I still don't believe I'm vain. I am a school teacher that has not one problem getting on a stage in front of an entire school to sing, dance, and act silly in goofy costumes. I know how to laugh at myself and I know I have flaws, but vain? I'm a mother to three boys and I'm about to turn 40. No, I don't want wrinkles. No, I'm not happy with 34 A cow udders for breasts. The thing is, I'm doing it for me. I want to feel good about myself and take care of myself. If that is being vain, well I guess I'll take it! Lol! I've reached an age and stage in my life where I just don't care what negative people say, do, or think anymore. You can't change people. I think you have a fabulous mindset and I totally agree with you. I enjoyed reading your post. "Haters gonna hate."
