Boobs!

OK, about 14 months ago I had a breast reduction. I was a G cup and after surgery and 9 lbs of breast flesh removed I went to a size C. MY stomach suddenly stuck out further than my breasts...which was unusual for me. I have never lost breast tissue when i've lost weight in the past, and today I've notice that my new boobs appear...BIGGER! Now, I don't mind that they look bigger, b/c the reason for the reduction was that i totally could not breath like a normal person. They jiggle on their own now because my stomach is no longer holding them up...and I've lost a couple inches in band size. I know I'm weird...but I'm so excited.

Very happy for you and your success! I know with your breast issues that this is a big deal for you! I unfortunately have had the opposite problem and now look like I have 2 pushpins sticking out from a cork board... nothing there anymore.

You go girl, I don't think you are weird at all!! I had an aunt that had a breast reduction and she was so relieved of back pain when it was done. Unfortunately, I know how you feel about your belly holding up your boobs, I was having the same thing happen to me not that long ago, but I am losing weight and working out and I can already see some good positive changes that are keeping me motivated!!

Good luck!

LMBO. Hubby is the same way. He walked by yesterday and tried to cop a feel and said "o no did I miss".

My goal has always been to be at my smallest weight for over a year before i go to Thailand for implants !

Congratulations though !!! Great Work !

Lucky ducky! My surgeon did a breast lift with my reduction, so they're perky, but not as small as I wanted! I requested (and was told) I'd be a C. I'm still a D. :frown:

I told my surgeon a full c to small d...I ended up with a small C. LOL But honestly, I've never felt better. Its amazing to breath again!

I'm a 34GG (I just mentioned this in another post, actually) and I know your pain. I'm really hoping to lose some cup sizes as I slim down.

Really glad you're feeling happier with yours and with your shape, now!

MY stomach suddenly stuck out further than my breasts...which was unusual for me.

I am a DD And I too am having issues losing the fat from the boobs ! Wow 9 pounds gez I want a reduction too it is just that I am waiting for my 2 year old to be done nursing ARGHHH ! I have insurance what % of this do they cover does anyone know and can I get a lift ? My back hurts. I have indents on my shoulders. I get the hard to breath feeling. I love to run just got to hold on to the top :noway: !

Not sure about your insurance company but MANY will pay for the reduction for health reasons. Here the surgeon has to be able to remove a certain amount PLUS the other issues you mentioned you have with the indents and back. May be worth looking into!!

Lol I have perky 38DDs (if that's even possible????) which for some reason look ok to me but I think its mainly due to me being 5'9'' and a medium bone structure. I do want to get down to a B though and have made that one of my motivations as I'd like to be able to wear spaghetti straps and bikinis without feeling like a slut lol. I've always been so anticleavage on myself its not even funny. And the other thing making me sad is that victoria's secret isn't carrying 38DD for most bras so I'm wearing 38Ds which fit somehow... Still measured by them as a Double D though. Meh, I don't want to worry about it anymore haha. I'm hoping eating clean and weight lifting will get it all to shrink!

My surgery was paid for 100%. Everything was completely covered and taken care of for me (including the recovery medications; percocets, T3's). I love Canada's health care system! If you're located in Canada, it'll probably be covered. Otherwise, your insurance may cover it - ask them! :flowerforyou:
