$17,000
Im very nervous after years of contemplating rhinoplasty after breaking it in competitive cheerleading and many consultations I have booked my surgery for April 18th, with Dr. Lista and Dr. Ahmad in Toronto. I am also having my breasts done at the same time as I am pursuing a career in fitness/bikini competing and modelling and after years in the weight room my D's are now A's. Im hoping for a slight correction of my profile view of my nose nothing dramatic and a small addition to my chest. Hoping to keep a smaller athletic looking chest.

Filled out all my post-operative forms today, going for my bloodwork tomorrow and doctors forms by the end of this week. Cleaning and purging my room and giving away tons of stuff just want to be clean and organized when I come home. Going to prep my meals as I usually do and keep my same diet but stick to soft foods for 3 days after (protein, greek yogurt, organic soup, rice cakes, VEGA shakes etc). I already train like crazy cause Im competing in September 6 days a week fasted LISS cardio in morning and weights in the evening, 3 days a week the weights are followed by a second cardio session of HIIT's. 1 day off is stretching and yoga and a long dog walk :). Im really scared for no gym and weights but im hoping being as healthy and active as I am will quicken the healing process. I'm also taking a ton of supplements and have just now STOPPED my fish oil, garlic, ginger and gingko. I'll be stopping my Borage and Flax oils a week before and taking everything else striaght through with NOTHING the day before. I can list off my supplements and vitamins if anyones interested. I'v also added in Arnica and Traumil homeopathically

I work out as well, I broke my nose twice but I use darker makeup to shade the side that it wasn't broken on. As far as the implants, go for it. I was a D when I had my son. I work out quite a bit and thank God I got the implants before I started hardcore in the gym. Mine look real and feel real as well. Working out tightens that muscle though so it seems they do get a bit smaller but 350cc is perfect. If u want the fake look go bigger. I dont mind fake lol. But being 32 around, its impossible to find a bra being measured a DDD
March 19, 2013
Yeah I think the worst part is having to take weeks off the gym im afraid all my hard work will disappear especially cause im competing in September. Hopefully not! I have been told between 275-400 CC's im not sure what size im going to go yet as im yet to have kids. I want to stay very athletic looking therefore I may go smaller like 300's maybe, I'm 5'6 and 122 and 32 around the waist and only 9 percent body fat so any thoughts? I wonder how long it will take for me to get back to weights and HIIT's
March 19, 2013
With u being that height, go with less than 400, that's going to be huge! When I woke up I cried saying omg they r too big, now I'm ok with it but six weeks u can't lift heavy at all. Keep on a good sports bra once your able to wear one. It took several months to be able to do what I had been doing but everyone is different. My suggestion, 350cc smooth round silicone have your cut made under the boob. It seems easier to have it under the muscle if u plan to have kids.

My BA is April 5th and the only thing I'm worried about is getting back to working out after. I'm also 5'6" and about 125 but my body fat is def no way near 9% LOL. I workout hard and everyday although I'm not training for anything,, just desperately scared of gaining weight. My PS said I could no longer do bench press, push ups or flies. Chest isn't my favorite anyway so I'm kinda ok with it. I was going to go 420cc I hope that's not too big, no I'm freaking out. Everyone I have talked to on here and also at work ( I'm an RN in Miami,, everyone has fake boobs) that are into working out had no problem getting back to it relatively quickly and also have no problems doing chest. I think I will hold off on chest for a while after though. Also I LOVE HIIT's . Good luck with your surgeries can wait to read more of your story
March 24, 2013
thanks! let me know how yours goes too! Chest isnt my favourite either, my PS said i can do pushup, flyes and what not just fine i just have to give it the longest time 3 mnths before training chest, are you talking never be able to again cause that doesnt seem right. Everyones diffeent some people said they feel the implant move weirdly when they trained chest so they just dont anymore but its more of a weird feeling than it is a pain. You shouldnt gain any weight, im afraid of that too thought, stick to a clean diet abs are made in the kitchen. Besdies we'll be back to cardio in 10 days-2 weeks stationary atleast do a lot fo that and you wont loose weight. Im more afraid of all the cardio and no weights killing my muscles and cuts. I'm going 325cc submusclular saline
March 24, 2013
That's what he said, never again, but I've talked to tons of people who say they work chest. One girlriends PS said no more flies but she can do everything else. I will wait prob 6 months to be super sure then start chest and see how I feel. I may not ever go back to as heavy as I do now but I will def try to work chest back in carefully.
The no weights for a while is really making me nervous. While I don't want to be fat I also don't want to lose any muscle. I'm not very good at doing what in supposed to so I know I will be starting light weights prob sooner than later. As long as I am healing well. Guess ill be eating tons of boiled chicken and salad! LOL! Good excuse to eat sushi (minus the rice) every day
March 24, 2013
yes im going under the muscle cause when i complete at low body fat the implant wont be visible, just bought a zip up new underarmor one and ill have those puppies strapped in lol. I think im going with 325 cc saline

Hi Sarah, my only advice is to let your body really rest - I mean DO NOTHING for at least 5 days straight. It is going to be hard but you need to let your body heal and not rush back into doing too much too soon. ;) As for the size - I would say go bigger which it sounds like you already are! Either way when you have kids your boobs are going to get HUGE - what is another 50 ccs? You rarely hear any women on here say that they wish they went smaller. ;) Good luck!!! Best thing I have ever done for myself.
March 24, 2013
Don't do it if u go under muscle. That chest muscle tightens and as it tightens it more likely to look deformed. If u wanna do a lot of chest, get implants over your muscle. I couldn't work my arms for about a year.
March 25, 2013
Agreed! 32DDD is a hard bra to find. I had BA on march 7th and went from 32B-32DDD with 339cc silicone. So I'm trying hard to find bras my size but no luck :/
March 25, 2013
What are you competing in? I am doing figure and my competition is May 10th!!!! I have to wait to do the surgery until after so I am scheduled for May 23rd!!!! Too long to wait!! Lol
March 25, 2013
I did figure and fitness in 2010/11. becasue of my injury from a car accident I havent been able to lift heavy enough to sculpt a figure division upper so I am competing in bikini in September, October and November. I may enter fitness if I can we will see how the recovery goes. Looks like we will be in the same boat! Hopefully I can get back to lifting quickly are you going under or over the muscle?
March 25, 2013
Oh boy okay :( thanks I'll have to talk to my PS i CAN NOT not do arms for a year lol
March 25, 2013
Well I think the first two weeks wont be hard for me to rest because of the rhinoplasty I'll have a wonderfully gorgeous face (NOT) and a cast for 2 weeks so I know I wont be wanting to do much but after that cast comes off im going to need to be disciplined but I will no way I'm wasting all the money. I hope my boobs dont get huge when I have kids lol, [RS bleep]. Thats the only thing that makes me hmm and haa about doing it before kids but I dont want to wait around for another 10 years I want some booobies lol
March 25, 2013
I work with a lot if girls who had theirs done and no one had to wait a year to lift again (with the exception of chest of course) most were about 6 weeks, give or take
March 25, 2013
LOL Sarah you will be ok .. in 10 years you may need them redone anyway so after you have kids you may get some new ones, a little lift (if needed, etc.)
And don't be worried about where to find bras! I just measured a 34DDD at Nordstrom (the VS people I have talked to had my measurements WAY off) and there are so many places that carry DDD sizes! Good luck to you all! :) xoxo

Thank you for starting your story on RealSelf. I look foward to following your journey. Sounds like you are ready both mentally and physically! I agree with you, a smaller implant might look just perfect on your tiny figure. Did you get to try on sizers yet? That really might help you envision your possible new look! Keep us posted!
March 24, 2013
I did try them on at my consultation and will be again in the 4th of April in my pre-op. I tried on 275, 300, 325 and 350 cc. I was overwhelmed at anything but 275 as I dont want an obvious or huge boob job nor do i want it to effect my training or get in the way lol. but now that I've had a bit of time i think ill be doing the 325cc's. Will make a for sure decision then. Thanks!

Just thought I would update as it's been about a week since I did. My surgery is in 24 days!! I was really nervous now I'm more excited! Can't wait actually :) Just again not looking forward to the mental battle of no weight training. But I'm being really positive I know my health and training will put me at an advantage for healing and recovery and I will just have to take it easy after all the $$$$$ i am NOT [RS bleep] anything up lol, and i have a tendency to be stubborn and train through strains and injuries but i JUST CANT!
My boyfriend will be driving me and taking care of me POST OP and he's been so great I think he's getting excited too cause my boobies might be almost healed for his bday which is May 7th, he might be able to give them a light squeeze lol. He's been googling information on how to be the best help its really sweet.
I have been going crazy cleaning my room, I threw out and gave away literally a dozen boxes full of stuff, emptied my room washed the walls and eveything i just want the cleanest, de-cluttered space possible and it feels great getting rid of stuff!
I've been training 2 or 3x a day and cleaning pretty much and then bartending at night, no full-time job right now as im off for the school year, hopefully ill be able to serve/bartend again in 2-3 weeks I know the trays and bottles are heavy so i'll update you guys so anyone in the industry knows how I felt. I plan on bartending at the nightclub 13 days POST-OP, and not returning to serving at a fine dining restaraunt till almost 4 weeks because I find the plates and trays of drinks to be harder on the area than just the pop gun and bottles. Ill let you all know though!
Bought my surgery pajamas and house coat and surgical soap for pre-op shower. Bloodwork and physical monday or tuesday.
