Hi everyone, I am 42 years old. I have 2 boys and have lost 50lbs. now at 5'6" 140lbs. I have and always have had saggy breast. I cant stand them never have, and have always wanted to have a BL/BA. Since losing the weight i can wear a A cup. and i look at some of your pic's and think to myself i just wish mine looked that good. It will be very hard for me to post before pic's.
So my husband ask if thats what he could give me for Christmas. I was thrilled and now getting a little nervous. I will be getting a lollipop lift. and 485cc in right and 510cc in left. under the muscle. And that is kinda freaking me out because that sounds so big. But PS says that will put me at a full C to a small D.
Have my pre-op Mon. 11-4. Keep your fingers crossed for me.

Just realized u did post a before pic! It's hard to tell without a side view. From everything I have been hearing from everyone they say to go a little bigger than what u think u want. It really is so hard to decide!! Best thing we can do is convey our hopes to our PS and then trust them. Good luck!!

Hi there! I hope you don't mind me saying this, but if I were you I'd get an anchor lift and no more than 200 or 250cc's. That should be a full C imho (i'm no medical professional). We are the same age and I just had my 350cc's removed. At my last measurement I was a 38E and trust me, I felt fat, fat, fat! Just my opinion, feel free to ignore ;)

Sorry i left out, He is doing a anchor with a lollipop. And the cc's can be very confusing. And like everybody else don't want to go to big, but not to small either. Can i ask why did you have yours removed?

Well I had them for 13 years and I basically just felt fat. Also the implants were doing strange things. I took lots of pics, go check out my profile! Btw I've heard and read SO many times now that ladies go into a bigger bra size than what their PS told them, I have to wonder why. It looks like you have some of your own tissue, so you never know what you will have once lifted. I think I've just changed my priorities over the years & I now feel better with smaller, lifted breasts with better shape than my old implants gave me. I think the rice sizers sound like a good idea. Good luck with your decisions, decisions!

I agree with Haley...I got 275 HP and went from a small c to a small d. I think anything over 375 cc is rather large on women with bee stings (no tissue) nonetheless on a woman with tissue. However, my PS said taller women can pull off large breasts and us shorties (I'm barely 5'3) can't and it makes us look fat! Have you tried on the sizers yet?
