  • I consider it a more aesthetic issue (more like upkeep) than a moral issue, and why I consider getting beach ball breast implants because you aren't happy with your cute pert ones (as in, CHANGING your body drastically) a moral issue.

    I had breast implants purely for cosmetic reasons (i had nothing to "fix") because i didn't like my "pert little ones". I don't have big beach balls either :P

    Morals are subjective. What is a moral issue to you, is not to others.

    I firmly believe that if you want it done, you have the money for it, and you're not harming anybody else, then go right ahead. No sense in holding back because it's "not right", or any if's but's and maybe's. Sometimes I raise an eyebrow at the 18, 19 year olds having cosmetic surgery, but hey, if i had the money at their age i probably would have done the same so what the heck, live and let live :D

    She asked for similar experiences not to be spoken down to. I myself do not plan on any type of breast surgery but as with everything everyone deserves their own opinion. Since she did not ask what everyone thought about the idea of about breast enhancement surgery SHUT UP!!!

    I can't really reply on weather or not you should have implants considering I have always been chesty so I don't know what it's like to be smaller. Seems like everytime I gained weight they get bigger so you would think that when I lose weight i would lose some of my chest, but I don't. Wish I would. Would love to be a B or small C. Just do your homework, find a good doctor and make sure you don't over do it on size.

    It's a PUBLIC message board. People can say whatever they want and the original poster can DO whatever she wants. It's obviously a bit of a controversial topic, and people are obviously going to have alot of opinions about it. As long as we are all respectful it is ok to say what ever you want on a public forum. Welcome to the internet.

    Your posts seem to contradict themselves. First you said it's a public forum and for opinions, so that's what you gave...in this last post you say "as long as we are all respectful". Talking down to someone or making them feel as if what they want is 'wrong', that's not respectful. If it is not something you would choose not to do, then say...it's not something I would do, but to each their own OR don't even comment in that type of thread. To put it the way you did, in a disrespectful manner, is not cool, or as you say 'respectful'. IMO

    when i reach goal weight, i plan on having some work done on the girls. When i was a kid i was in gymnastics and fell off the high beam - trying to catch myself, i ripped a pec muscle that will NEVER repair. so my boobs are... walleyed. in a bra, no one can tell. but when i reach GW - and stay there for a while - i plan on making them symetrical and having a band inserted on the left side so that it's held up the way that muscle was supposed to originally. i love the size they are now - but i know i'll lose some. and i want to know i'm doing a realistic change. i might end up with a "cutlet" implant - it's a newer proceedure that (from my understanding) is done more in a lift, rather than the old round bags of saline, they have ones shaped more like the chicken cutlets you put in your bra, only it's permanent.

    do your homework on surgeons. talk to your dr to make sure you're good to go. and good luck!

    awesome reward for all your hard work!!

    Hopefully someone in this forum can answer my questions and concerns. Its going to sound a bit foolish but here I go.

    I am a 21 year old female who has always been big breasted. Which I love. I am currently at my heaviest I have ever been, and completely ashamed. (205 pounds). I am also 5'0. My goal is to get down to 140 but I am so incredibly scared of losing my boobs and or them becoming mishapen and such. Now because I have always been big breasted, even in my teens when i was at around 150, I'm thinking they will go down in a size or so but hopefully not become droopy or a cups?
    If anyone can help me with this it would be greatly appreciated.

    It's hard to say on someone else. It depends on a lot of factors. Your body type, your skin elasticity...etc. I can only speak from personal experience that when I lost weight, I went from DD to a C and they were decent. Did not have kids at this point. It really just depends on the person, no one can say for sure. What were they like before you got to your current weight? That is probably what they will go back to and possibly droop, depending on how big they are now (at your heaviest). You're young, so I'm guessing they'll probably bounce back. How long have you been this weight?

    No one can really tell you that hun. Some women lose weight off their boobs when they drop a size, others don't, it all depends where you are genetically more inclined to keep it/ lose it.

    A heavy girl with big boobs is like a skinny guy with abs in that sense that they are both equally unimpressive.

    Do what makes you happy and be confident in your own decision.
  • Got a boob job done 16 years ago. Love it, never have had any problems, and have no regrets at all.

    You are right it is a public forum and she has the right to ask a question and get an answer to it. Unfortunately you think you have the right to give your opinion about surgery in general which was NOT anywhere in the question she posted. Also if you do not have children yet you have NO IDEA what you are talking about. I wish my post baby body on you. So you can break down in the middle of making love to your husband because your nasty skin flap got stuck on his belly AGAIN in the middle of making love. I love my baby and my funky body is totally worth her but you truly have no idea what having a baby can do to the average body. So keep you uppity opinions to your damn self.

    I know two people that had a tummy tuck and one being my sister.... She never was heavy but having 4 kids her tummy muscles were ripped and never could tone her stomach so she decided on a tummy tuck... She went through a lot of pain and her incision is not bikini line so she never will be able to wear a two piece bikini swimming suit. I don't think she regrets it by any means and she looks fabulous with clothes on. Just remember it will come with a lot of pain (I took care of her post surgical) and there will be a nice looking scar.

    I had a reduction almost 8 years ago due to hormonal treatments causing excessive growth. & they came back! So now I am looking into reduction #2. Except this time, I'm going to ask for all breast tissue to be removed & replaced with implants (don't grow or sag!) My reasoning comes from years of this hormonal treatment continuing, plus the result of my last surgery being botched by a doctor who really didn't give a crap. This time I am doing my research on the doctor, & not just going to the only doctor nearby that is covered by my insurance (the last reduction was paid for by insurance bc of back pain + letters of recommendation from my ob/gyn & regular doctor) That is my biggest piece of advice to anyone seeking surgery of any kind. DO YOUR RESEARCH ON THE SURGEON BEFOREHAND! I was 17 at the time & the botched surgery destroyed what was left of my self esteem It was 6 months before my incisions healed fully & then I had to undergo another surgery (lumpectomy) to remove what ended up being scar tissue left from the horrible infection from the reduction. I was left with no choice but the lumpectomy after I was refused a mammogram bc of my age, even though it was ordered by a doctor. That was most likely the most difficult year of my life. It was definitely a learning experience.

    I did exactly that! :)

    I got down to about 63kg after being about 100kg, and the skin on my boobs didn't shrink. I had the worst time getting bras to fit me!!

    SO in January 2010 I had a mastopexy (a lift) and a slight reduction. I went from a DD to a C.

    I'm totally healed up now and I am VERY happy with the results. Please feel free to message me if you want specific details about recovery etc!

    Good luck!
  • I would love to give my girls a real good perk, nothing wrong with self improvement in any form.
    You go girl!!!!

    I had mine done last year and I would do it again! But I would go a bit bigger. I got 350CC's and am a 34D and that really isn't big at all. I recommend going a bit bigger than you think you want. You won't regret it. :) Boobs are fun!!

    Oh and I'm a Christian. Me and God, we're still all good. He wouldn't give plastic surgeons the brains to do things such as this if he didn't intend them to use them. :)

    Agreed. I measure 32ff but only LOOK a D cup if that. Fakies are much smaller when in

    This is true! Especially for under the muscle!

    I just want to be 20 again. Even with my A measurement. They now hang down to where my mini-skirt used to be, but then so does everything else. But no surgeon can give me what I want.

    Destined to become a crone, I figure that it will be better than being one of those old gals with the kohl-lined eyes wearing leapord print over wrinkly boobs trying to be babes long past the prime of life!

    Went from a AA to a C... best thing I ever did to myself. I've always been convinced that lingerie companies do their level best to create horrifically UGLY bra/panty sets for women in a AA cup -

    Note: when you get new boobs, you get a little sumpin' extra, an HOURGLASS figure!!! Indeedy, God jipped me out of boobs, and I got them 12 years ago. Imagine my surprise when I took a good look in the mirror and noticed that SUDDENLY I was lookin' a lot like a WOMAN!!!! I finally looked like a REAL girl, not something that got twisted and punched around and left for dead on the side of the road.
    Seriously, between the fact that my nails don't grow, I was flat chested, had NO *kitten*, my hair was mousy ash brown, and I had to wear glasses. What a total CLUSTER.!

    Plastic surgery is a great idea, unlike other posters who think it's shallow. One can get carried away, but that's not generally the case when you have to think really carefully about what procedure to get and what would make you happiest and what would be the best use of your money. Enhance what you like - you only come through this way once. It's a wonderful self-esteem boost.

    It's the moral (and societal) issues I have when women get big beach ball boobs, even before they have kids (like that idiot famous person who got them and then was upset because she couldn't breast feed afterwards, it's like, Duh! You mess around in there with foreign objects enough and they aren't going to work properly!!) so that they are "attractive." There is nothing wrong with having little pert boobs. And I realize now that is not what you are adressing.

    So I take back what I said about conforming to society, it's ok for you to want to go back to where you want to be, as long as you aren't wanting to "fix" yourself into something totally new. It was a bit naive of me to not understand where you are coming from, escpecially since I haven't had kids. And I know you don't need approval from me, I am just apologizing mostly. :)

    Moral issues? LOL. Getting aesthetics confused with morals... isn't that difficult to do? Wow.

    Yes, I consider changing your body (as in, what God gave you) drastically is a moral issue. Getting a boob job is not necessarily just aesthetics. It is a big, invasive deal, it's not like dyeing your hair. I personally beleive that you should rock and be proud of what you were given, and not try "fix" it unless there is something wrong (ie: getting reduction surgery because your back is being damaged etc). In the original poster's case, like I outlined, she really isn't trying to "fix" HERSELF, she is trying to "fix" CHANGES to her body brought on by challenging events taking a toll. That is why I consider it a more aesthetic issue (more like upkeep) than a moral issue, and why I consider getting beach ball breast implants because you aren't happy with your cute pert ones (as in, CHANGING your body drastically) a moral issue.

    Do you not consider losing weight b/c you want to be as skinny as Kate Hudson 'changing' your body to 'fix' things? I mean you're so concerned about societal pressures but yet you want to look like a celebrity? The only difference I see is that breast augmentation is surgical, and I'm pretty sure the God that accepted circumcision and said if your right hand offends you then cut it off, doesn't have anything against surgery. Please don't take this the wrong way, but it seems like you're picking and choosing what's 'acceptable' based on your own personal preferences, rather than realizing that different people have different preferences and that's okay.

    That's a very good point. However, if you recall I said DRASTICALLY changing your body. I don't want to look like Kate Hudson, I just saw a picture of her once and her height was the same as mine and she looked healthy and beautiful at that weight (which the picture reported was 135) so it became my inspiration. I am not going to go get a nose job so that I look like her, because I don't want to and that would be drastically changing my body.

    You are right in that God accepted (mandated) circumcision, but while many would say this is for aesthetic purposes it was actually for deeper reasons, one of which being for heigine. Secondly, "cutting off your right hand" is NOT a reference to surgery, it is a point about how abhorrent it is to sin. It is a far cry from going under the knife for cosmetic purposes.

    Of course I am picking and choosing what is acceptable based on my own opinions because that is what opinions are. But I am trying to back it up with reason and knowledge and to have a semi-intelligent discussion with others in this community about it. If you see above I even changed my opinion about the original post, so I am learning from you just as you are all maybe perhaps learning a bit of a new perspective from me.

    I have implants and I think God's alright with it because it made me (and it still makes me) really really happy. My guess is, and I've never met God so this is pure speculation, he has bigger fish to fry than this.

    Once I'm at my goal weight and I've maintained it a bit I'm going to get a reduction and due to scoliosis and back pain I'm hoping that I can get it covered due to medical issue!!!

    I also am going to maybe have a tummy tuck and am saving for that as well!!!

    Being someone who is a 38 G (really a 36 GG but I don't want to buy another bra) I would really advise against implants. I have so many back pains because of the size of my breasts and it's hard to find clothes that fit right. If I want to not look preggo and show off my waist then I'm skin tight on the boobs, if I dress to not be showing off the girls I look pregnant. It's not a win win especially since I don't want to have skin tight clothes working in a middle school. Those boys don't need anything else to be looking at!!!

    i'm going to have to have a tummy tuck i have loose skin on my tummy it looks like a raisin when i lose all my weight. I will never have a six pack no matter how hard i work and it's very discouraging because i would be in a size four when i am at m thinnest except for that so i feel ya. I say do what feels good for you.

    I Too would love a tummy tuck, however I'm not sure if I'm done having kids...so I want to wait on that one, I dislike my stretchmarks so bad!!
