Ladies: Reaching goal. ...and then another goal.

So, I used to weigh well over 300lbs. I'm now at 175, my goal, and though I've been able to 'rebound' pretty well for the most part, but one thing I've always been SUPER insecure about is my breasts. To be perfectly blunt, they look like ****. So to reward myself for reaching my goal of 175, and just because I feel like I freakin' deserve it, I'm getting implants on the 25th. Has anyone else done this for themselves? As excited as I am, I am also INCREDIBLY nervous. I haven't talked to a lot of people about it, and no one that's actually been through it, so. I'm also a little freaked out by the amount of time I can't lift or exercise in general after the surgery. Any insight would be helpful. Pics below to show journey. Thanks all.

    You look faboo! Congrats :) I wouldn't mind a lift myself (and they require implants to my understanding). Congrats and hope you like the new boobs!

    Nice change, I can't wait till I get to the goals I have set for myself. I started at 355, and slowly working my way down. My first goal is to get under 300 which is coming along nicely.

    Thank you, and just to give you some info, you absolutely do not need implants when you get a lift! Just an FYI. ;)

    You look amazing! Congratulations on your weight loss! I haven't been through it but one of my family members had a breast reduction, which I know is different but she was in pain and had to rest for a few weeks. It might be a slight backslide fitness-wise but in the long run if this is something you really want then it's probably worth it.

    You look fantastic! Other than not being able to exercise for a while afterwards, what exactly are you nervous about? The surgery? (that's what I would worry about - general anesthetic scares me) Or the results?

    Umm you look AMAZING!!!!! May I ask what you're starting weight was?? I started at 324 and am down ALMOST 100 pounds! My goal weight is 175 as well! (For now anyways...)

    I've had huge boobs my whole life! With the 86 pounds I've lost, I went from a 44H to a 40H so it doesn't look like they're going anywhere anytime soon but they ARE a bit "deflated" which I assume will only get worse as my loss gets bigger. I'm pretty sure I'm going to need a lot of work done when I'm at goal!

    Lets be friends!! :drinker:

    Thank you. All of it really. The surgery itself, the results, everything. It's a big thing. I think I'm also a little freaked out to have made it this far, and now doing this thing to celebrate is also a little scary, if that makes sense. I worry about doing this big thing to myself, and then gaining the weight back. I know this all sounds a little ridiculous, and honestly, I am WAY more excited than nervous, but I'm definitely at least a little freaked out.

    Perhaps I should have put something about implants in the title to attract the needed visitors! ;)
