So I should have started this sooner but here it goes!
In 2013, a year after my 1st child I had a lift done in Dallas by Dr Stagnone. I loved it at first. Fast forward to October 2014, after breastfeeding my 2nd child, the girls were emmmmpty. Decided on going ahead with aug, and also had to have my lift revised a little because I had too much skin left under my crease. Dr Saar (who did my Aug) said I had 8 inches of skin and shoud have only had 4. My nipples were pretty much poinrung to the sky after everything settled after my lift (He called this a "Dallas lift" meaning a lot of doctors give patients the perfect look right of out surgery instead of giving them a lift that will look perfect after they settle) My pics will explain this.
Anyway- had the aug on a Wednesday, drove myself to my post op Friday, and went back to work the following Monday. I'll start here with pics.

Trying on sizers
Ok so let me preface everything with this- my goal was not necessarily to look "natural". It drives me insane when everyone says "well you want to look natural" . Really? Do I? How do you know that?! LoL I dealt with "natural" for years- I want PERFECT and BIG. My wish was to be right underneath the line of big versus too big and wanted to go as big as I could without them making me look fat. I recently lost 20 pounds so I didn't want to add that back in boobs!
So @ the consult, The first thing my doctor said to do was not worry about the number and not compare myself to anyone else. My sister who is 5 11 went with 400s and she kept telling me I should go no bigger than that. Anyway when I started I didn't ask what numbers they were putting on me. I ended up going all the way to 400 in my visit. at the consultation I decided on going with 450. However when I went in for my preop appointment the Friday before my surgery I was all alone and they didn't have a 450 Sizer. So I tried on the 400 and she brought me the 500 and we decided that that would be a good way for me to determine what 450 would look like. Well after I put the 500s on I realized that they didn't freak me out so I ended up going with the 500s.
Looking back- My advice to you is to try on sizers until you say "that's too big". Don't just stop with big enough. Also, in the pics you will see me holding my hand under my boobs to flatten my shirt. Don't do that either because most shirts don't fit like that. DO take sever different types of shirts to see how they all fit.
