I have 5 days left with my 40G boobs.
When I was a baby my mom said she could tell I was going to be "blessed" with large breast. I didn't really notice until I entered 7th grade with a bra size at 38DD. I was known as the girl who had huge boobs. I started getting bad pain in my lower back every time I bent down, but I ignored it. I had been playing soccer since I was 4 years old,and as I got older I lost weight, but not in my chest. I always had to wear at least 6 sport bras to keep my boobs from smacking me in the face when I ran. haha.
After some college I had my daughter. My boobs only went up a cup size. I tried working out but never lost weight in my boobs. With all the back pain, all the rashes between and under my boobs, I decided to get the reduction I had been waiting for.
I am 20 yrs old now and my surgery is on 11/9/11...Although I am happy and excited, I am also terrified! I have mixed feelings from what people have told me and from what I have researched. I hate being in pain, so I am trying to prepare myself for this.

Welcome to RealSelf. I am happy you posted your journey with us. Fear is normal but you will be glad you did this. Pain in temporary and worth it!

ebg try to focus on all the positive that you read. As with any surgical procedure you will read the good and the bad. You need to be mentally ready for this procedure and only you can make the decision. What I can tell you is that I had also worked myself up into a frenzy prior to mine. But it was one of the best things I ever did for myself. I could not stand the large boobs any longer and they had to go!
I had soreness and swelling but this was a pretty easy surgery recovery for me to go through. The pain is temporary and does end. You can do it!

I was so nervous and scared about it until I found this web site. After talking to other people and reading other blogs I feel so much better about it! I can't wait to by a cute bra!
I will keep you in my prayers as well. :D
I want a low D because after I fully recover I'm going to start working out and If I loose weight in my boobs I figure I will be a C and that way I won't be too small, I want them just right. What about you?
