WORTH IT
I am nervous, excited, terrified, relieved...all at once. I suspect this surgery brings a real mix of emotions. My surgery is only three days away!
I was a 34 D in High School, now a 36F after two pregnancies and a total of four years breastfeeding my two sons. I have chronic neck and back pain and get strange chest muscle spasming due to the big bras I have to wear that compress my chest.
I did get insurance approval with Regence to pay for my surgery.
I really appreciate all the stories, photos and honest sharing. I can't imagine going into this without the amazing support of other women who have gone before...what did we do before the internet? :)

I went for a jog today, bolstered in my enormous sports bra. This is the last time I will ever be tortured by it!

Good Luck, hope all goes well! Let us know how you get on. Think of all those teeny sports bras you'll be buying for your runs really soon-so exciting! Mines in June so have a few more works outs with 2 bras all strapped in to go!

All the very best! It must be a crazy mix of emotions but as my father always says, 'steady at the helm'.
My op is 19th May. Take care :-)

My friend who is a nurse saved me the best room with a view of Mt. Hood and an amazing sunrise this am.

Congrats on your surgery!!! You and I are the same age and started at the same size. Hope you will love your results as much as I do! Happy healing :)

Congratulations on making it safely to the smaller side. Get plenty of rest and start moving the pillows around to make yourself a comfy nest.
