After breast feeding my child for 1 1/2 years and gaining 43 lbs over the 3 years, looking in the mirror was a pain to me because I was unable to recognize myself. I lost 30 lbs and hoping to lose a couple more lbs to achieve my goal weight. Why is it that when you lose weight it seems like the first things that go is yours breast and your ass? Why!? Well my breast and ass took tribute to my weight lost first! As of right now my breast are swimming in my bras because of my weight loss. (no i'm not buying any new bras until I get my breast augmentation ;)

Looking around my location to find a plastic surgeon to do my BA.

My consulation wasn't until next monday at 2PM but I was too anxious so right when the office opened 9:30 AM I called in an asked if they had an available appt today since I was free. I set up an appointment for 3:15 got there at 3:00. Filled out my information and waited in the lobby for about 5 mins until the woman called me in and go into a room. A few mins later Dr. Pham came in, I popped out my phone and I had a list of questions to ask him. I thought he was going to get annoyed with all my questions but he was a very nice man.

For sure SILICONE! Gosh I love the feel of them babies!

I can not make up my mind on the CC :(
I am 5'1 137 lbs

350 CC = Looks very suitable for my size not to big but it seems a bit small
400 CC= BOOBIES! But I feel like it might be too big where it will make me look FAT. BIG NO
*he did tell me I can add cc in increments of 25cc*
375 CC = ? Hmm possible

Moderate or Moderate Plus which one do I go with?

Moderate plus seems to be the best choice for wider chests women (think 36-38 bra band) and gives a nice full look :)

Okay, after going into my consultation with a mind set up silicone implants I have out weighed the pro and cons about silicone vs saline. SALINE won the debate. As much as I love to get silicone I can't imagine paying up $800 -$1000 on a MRI every 2-3 years and having a rupture that I might not even know about.

Today I got my lab work done! I will be making a deposit on BA to save my surgery date! It takes about 48 hours to receive the lab test results so I will be following up with my PS on Friday!

The FDA eliminated their recommendation for routine MRI screening for all patients with silicone implants..

I thought the exact same except around my area the MRI are near 3 grand!!!!! I totally decided on Saline for this reason.
