Tummy Tuck with possible Liposuction Decided against BA. SX-10-16-14. Maintained 100 Lb. Wt Loss for 13 Yrs. - Western Colorado

Hello RS Ladies. After much thought I have decided to not have a Breast Aug. I've had a lot of anxiety about the breast aug and I keep chalking it up to nerves about the whole procedure in general and in not being able to choose a size. When I started this adventure I originally wanted a tummy tuck and then possibly a BA one year from now. A PS from this site suggested the MM, having one surgery, one recovery and that made a lot of sense. I got my husband revved up about it and I don't feel so good about that. He's my biggest fan and I honestly believe that he doesn't care about the boobs but I feel bad about it none the less as I know that he must have gotten excited about the fun and new difference that this, hahah, would have undoubtedly added to the bedroom experience. I'll keep the reasons to myself as I don't want to rain on anyone else's parade....That's not what this site is for. I can tell you that since I have made this decision I feel as if a huge weight has been lifted. I'm super excited about moving forward with my Tummy Tuck.
I emailed a letter to my PS today letting her know of my decision and the reasons why I have changed my mind. I have not received a call or response to my email so I'll call tomorrow to confirm that her assistant received my email. I did mention in the letter that if it is a good option for me I am interested in talking about liposuction to my thighs. I have already paid, I'm only 10 days out and have no idea how this is all going to play out but I will keep you posted. Tummy pictures coming soon.

Hubby and I started out on our journey today; a 11/2 hour drive to the PS office for my pre-op appointment. Tomorrow is 14 days before surgery. Today is my last day on supplements. Tomorrow I begin the Bromelain with Quercetin which I purchased at the PS office. It came with Arnica but I think I wait to take that until after the surgery(??) I've used Arnica before but I've always thought that a Homeopathic needs to be used only when the condition exists as opposed say, as a preventative... I'll look into that. Okay, so back to the beginning of the story...We headed out in the pouring rain, hydroplaned and ended up in the median sunk in mud. We attracted the police and a fire truck.....boy oh boy. Darling son made it before the tow truck and pulled us out. I called the PS office and they were able to reschedule for later in the day. The Vehicle had to be washed, tire repaired, Husband had to be washed....hahahah, what a morning! Came back home got a different car and headed out again. I really like my Plastic Surgeon. She is beautiful in looks and in spirit. Her passion is with Breast Cancer patients and I love that about her. She allows a lot of time for answering questions and I just get this feeling from her, a feeling like I just know that I will be safe in her hands and it's even more than that.
She will use the same size implant in both sides. I have one nipple a bit off than the other in the measurement and she reminded me that they are sisters and not twins......I've heard it before but it still made me laugh!! She confirms that my anatomy is my anatomy...i.e. If you start with nipple this way or that way, up or down that is how you will end up, only bigger. I tried the 339cc's on again both in the sports bra that she (PS) likes for you to try, and in a 34D underwire front hook bra that I sometimes use for my rice sizers. Again I compared my rice sizers to the implants and again my sizers came up a bit too small. I asked hubby if he wanted to feel them and hahah, he loved how they felt. I love how they feel. I can't wait to do what I see others do and test the squishiness at the bottom! I asked again to see where she will make my scar line and about dog-ears and about the little bit of Lipo that she always includes in her Tummy Tucks. I asked her if she thinks I will get a good result and even asked if my mons area will be pulled up a bit, to which she explained that it's going the other direction but she often times does a little lipo there. I'll be sure to clarify that on SX day and I'm not real sure what result that yields.
I've included a funny picture. This morning as I was gathering my things to take along I inadvertently grabbed a tote bag. Later on I noticed the writing on the side.......hahahah, is this perfect or what?? I've decided to make this my new mantra.

I found this info on a different plastic surgeon's website. It really helps me in thinking that I have my size figured out. Even though my shape is not full and has no volume in the top, I am a full b cup. I look at some of the pic's and wonder how they are figuring sizing because their B cup doesn't look anything like mine, they always seem bigger.......oh well, anyway according to this I should with 339cc end up with a large C to D cup.. If anyone reads this and has input to the contrary, I am so interested in hearing about it!! I'm also curious about something; if I am now a 34B Will I still be a 34-whatever?? It's logical to me that my band size doesn't increase just because my cup size is bigger.....right?? or does it, and if so, please explain!

Copied from a website ( I did not change a word):
150-200 cc of breast implant size equals a cup size in the same bra
-this figure is not an exact figure determined by scientific research but rather an estimate based on anecdotal experience. To increase from an A cup to a B cup will take 200ccof breast implant but a full B cup may take 250cc. If you are a full B cup and want to enlarge your breast two cup sizes to a D cup then you will need at least 300cc-400cc of breast implant size to achieve that enlargement with a natural breast shape. If you want to be unnaturally big breasted then even larger implants will be required.
