5'6" 133 lbs and im getting 550cc silicone high profile implants in 4 days!

I decided to interview surgeons for my plastic surgery in Oct. '13. I went to a few consultations and ultimately decided on a board certified plastic surgeon who really made me feel comfortable and at ease. It happened to be a bonus that he was also one of the cheaper quotes I received.

I had my pre-op 3 days ago with him and he answered all questions as well as let me try on sizers. I have decided on 550cc silicone implants. I wasn't sure what profile I should get but the nurse told me High Profile is usually the look he prefers, which I'm fine with. I 100% trust his judgement.

My family keeps asking if I'm nervous, to which I practically scream with excitement "NO JUST SUPER EXCITED HEHEHEHE!"

4 more days!

Good luck ! I have 550 hp silicone, under muscle implants. They're gorgeous? However, I'm ready to return to my petite, athletic look. I've been busty for 15 yrs and want a natural look. I'm 48 and have had my fun. 5'5, 120 lbs. Enjoy them! Make sure your surgeon gives you sexy cleavage by placing them close together. :)

Good luck! We have almost the same stats, and I wish mine were a tad bigger, so the 550s will look great!

I'm so excited!! My surgery is in 24 hours!! I have stocked up on a lot of TV dinners and convenience food.

I find the more excited I become, the more friends I want to tell. And then the friends I do tell are telling other friends, not realizing I hadn't told them. Ugh. Whatever, I guess everyone will find out soon enough!

I told my roommate that my mom, aunt and sister all have implants and he laughed and said "I see the Vanity Gene runs in your family". What a dick! This is why I'm selective on who I want to tell before my surgery. Also, people will try to talk you out of the size you've chosen saying it's too big. IT'S NOT THEIR DECISION, IT IS YOURS. YOUR MONEY, YOUR DECISION, YOUR BODY AND YOUR LIFE.

See you guys on the other side!

I'll update tomorrow afternoon/evening with pics.

I kept going back and forth on whether I should do 500 or 550. I told my doctor I wanted large/full D's and he said both sizes would be acceptable. I just am a bit boob greedy so decided on the 550s!

I went into the Doctors office at 7:30 (slightly early because I wanted to make we were there on time). I took a pregnancy test and gave my boyfriend my car keys and headed to the back!

The nurse took my blood pressure and asked me a series of general medical questions. She left and I put on my surgery gown (open in the front) and then Dr. Castor came in and marked my breasts with a pen/marker. We talked a little bit about the procedure, he confirmed 550cc's, silicone, high profile, under the muscle with my incision under my breasts. He then had the anesthetist come in and talk to me, he asked me some general Medical questions as well. He told me to turn my gown around so it ties in the back and come into the surgery room when I was done.

I walked into the surgery room and still wasn't nervous. They were really sweet asking me where I grew up and what I did for a living. They were playing Jack Johnson on the mpd3 player :)! He asked me what my favorite cocktail was and I said "gin and tonic" and he said "oh well get ready for it hunny".

The next thing I remember is waking up in the recovery room in excrutiating pain! I couldn't stand the pain so the nurse gave me a shot of Demeral, which honestly didnt put a dent in my pain. I cannot get over how tight and heavy they were. Feels like cinder blocks are sitting on my chest.

It's been just over 12 hours since my surgery and I feel SO much better. I still need my boyf to pull my yoga pants down when I pee. The first half of the day he fed me.. It's better now and I just fed myself a half of a pb&j. Other than that I had some crackers when I first got home and a poptart that I nursed throughout the entire day.

My doctor told me since the pain is so bad I am allowed to take 2 pain pills at a time today. The smallest things hurt, opening a bedroom door, forget about it!! I've been propped almost completely up in my bed, which is the most comfortable... Otherwise its hard to breathe.

Ok so that's all I feel like typing for now.. Will update tomorrow.

I had 550 h p also. I'm now in the massaging site stage I sure hope it goes down some I did want some projection also but right now I'm just like big browns and she said it would drop some and I would have projection my boy if I got great cleavage I had three previous bilateral lump ectomy's so I was really flat up top but plenty underneath and good tissue I hope everything works out well for you the best way to brush your teeth is just move your head don't try anything else that could easily take care of yourself and best of luck and God bless
