WORTH IT$8,000
I've been wanting boobs since I can remember. I wish I would have tried to get them sooner but I was always waiting for a more financially appropriate time.
I've generally run between a 36a or 36b, 36a being the most recent.
I've lost weight and gotten into better shape over the last few years and am pretty happy with the result so far (still a work in progress). Between losing weight and breast feeding my breasts look small and deflated.
I can rarely fill out a bra and there's always a gap. Im looking to even out the rest of my body with an augmentation and finally fill out some of my tops.
I think I might be interested in a C cup and silicone but we will see!! Any comments and suggestions are greatly appreciated.
I am planning to call for a consultation in the next week at the Quatela Surgery Center/ Dr. Koenig.

Not about a BA yet. I did see him about a filler for my tear trough. But I know two women personally that had their BAs done by him.
I'm a single mom and I'm trying to decide when the best time would be to have surgery. They'll be gone for most of the summer so maybe late summer? And there are so many choices but I think I have a good idea...enough for the consult and then I assume he can help me from there.

Finally scheduled a consultation!
I've been planning this forever but I think my main delay in scheduling a consult was I wanted to be ready for the actual BA.
It took me so long to feel I was financially comfortable and not feel so incredibly guilty about spending this kind of money on myself.
I left s message at Dr. Koenig's office the other weekend. After some phone tag I spoke the patient consultant the following Wednesday. She couldn't get me in for a few weeks unless I wanted to come in the next morning since there was a cancellation. "I'll be there!"
Dr. Koenig and staff are so incredible. I was completely at ease. He answered all my questions. He gave me the pros and cons. He also went into why he does what he does.
I had already settled on silicone implants from being on RS. I also knew Dr. Koenig generally goes under the muscle and goes in above the crease. I was ultimately hoping for a moderate profile implant however my BWD is 13 and the largest implant for that size seemed too small when I tried it on. After trying the mod profile Dr. Koenig suggested I start with the largest high profile implant for my BWD (500cc) and work my way down.
The 500cc seemed so large, I quickly moved down from that one. But Dr. Koenig seemed to think it was s really good size for me. I then tried the 450cc. That seemed a little larger than I wanted but after hearing about so much boob greed on here I thought that would be best- go with something a little larger than I was comfortable with.
I ultimate scheduled my surgery before I left. I paid my down payment and scheduled surgery for 8/17/16.
Sooo excited!

Good luck with your surgery! I'm getting a mommy make over with dr Koenig on August 2nd. I decided to go bigger with implants too. Can't wait to see your results! You're going to look great !

That's so exciting! I wouldn't mind some belly work too. Ha.
Dr. Koenig is such a nice doctor. He really makes you feel at ease, doesn't he?
Can't wait to see your results too!

Rice sizers.
I was so quick to try on the implants at the doctors office that I never thought of taking pictures. I went alone and no I started wondering if the size I was picking was the best choice.
I read a couple of posts by some fellow RS-ers and decided to make some rice sizers. These ones are approx 485cc (2cups of rice). I'm feeling good about this size which I guess means I should maybe move up to the 500cc after all since I will lose some volume behind the muscle.
These aren't the best pics but let me know your thoughts.
Oh, my stats are:
5'3"
134 lbs
36A/B
BWD 13
I think a D is where I want to fall.

I'm sorry I'm so slow on reading ur story I see ur stats OK another short girl whooo hooooo I'm 5ft lol so 500 cc is what ur going with man u girls are brave I'm so scared I may end up looking like dolly Parton hahahha

I'm a little nervous too about looking too big, mostly worried about projecting too far out. I definitely do not want missile [RS bleep]. Lol
I do trust my doctor though and he seems to refuse to do anything that would look super fake. I'd say my chest is kind of wide plus I have a fairly big ass so I think they'll be big but still proportionate.
I tried the 397 mod profile and both the nurse and PS seemed to think they were very conservative. The 450 was slightly bigger than what I liked initially so I figured a little bigger would be better. I'm going under the muscle do if you like a 450, they'll give you a 475 since you lose volume under the muscle. Then I read about all this boob greed and say "well, what's 25cc more?" Both the PS and nurse thought it looked good and of course I've got a few other people that say "go big or go home". But on the flip side, I have friends worried I'm to small for big boobs and I'll tip over. Lol

I'm so slow just reading this omg ur so funny tip over hahaha ur 5ft3 nice curves I'm a lil shorter but I'm thinking 500 is what I want I'm loving the roundnes of urs very nice

Bwd how do I figure out mine I wanted moderate profile but also want big boobs ugh so confused
August 8, 2016
I'm not sure. My PS measured me and told me mine. It was a big shock to find out the only mod profile I could handle was pretty conservative in size once I tried them on.
If you're chest is not that wide, I'd imagine a smaller implant would look similar to a bigger implant on a woman with a wider chest.
Sounds like your story is similar to many other women on RealSelf. Glad you're able to do something special for yourself. Here are some important questions to ask during your doctor consult. Good luck and update us soon!
