    I have had them for 12 (3 different surgeries) years....love them and even though they do get in the way sometimes and I do plan on downsizing at some point I can't imagine not having them. Just make sure u really research your plastic surgeons!! And checkout justbreastimplants.com for lots of super information....there is also a forum over there full of well informed sweet wonderful women with lots of info to share!!

    Went a few years ago for a consult. They gave me the impression that if I was planning on having kids and breast feeding, there might be some "issues", so I never went through with it. Now that my husband and I are not planning on having kids, we have discussed it a little bit, and I'm considering it again for the future. The cost and pain of replacing them concerns me a little, as they don't last forever. I don't want huge boobs or anything, I just want them to look nice. I don't think there is anything wrong with a little confidence booster, after all, that is why a lot of us are here.

    Want a boob job SO bad!! The only thing holding me back is the cost. Have thought about putting donation jars in supermarkets and gas stations. LOL!!

    I don't want huge ones, just enough to not look like a boy. :)

    Trust me girls. As a 5'3", 34DDD that don't alter in the slightest with weight loss, big boobs aren't all they're cracked up to be. The back problems alone should be enough to make a person reconsider getting implants. Not to mention bra shopping is a complete nuisance. It's incredibly difficult to find anything with enough support and the correct size, let alone even looks pretty. Working out helps with the back problems. But they definitely get in the way when I go jogging. All the best to girls who get them. Not everyone has the same problems that I have had. I'm actually weighing to pros and cons of having them reduced.

    IMO, a DD-DDD implant and a DD-DDD natural breast are very different. I am an implant D-DD and my breasts do not get in my way at all. They aren't heavy in the slightest. I am actually wanting to go a bit bigger in the future. I don't know why....but it seems from experience with my friends and in the medical field that natrually large breasts cause issues that implants don't. I can't say I know why though. lol

    Thanks. :smile:
    Seriously though, I can't even fill up a A-cup. I used to be a C-cup before kids. Was a E-cup while nursing.
    So yeah, missing having boobs. Plus all the extra skin is NOT attractive.
    I think I'd be happy with a C-cup.

    That's interesting. I went to DD when I was pregnant and breastfeeding. I didn't like the boob sweat, and found them hard to dress. Now that I am done with having kids, I am down to an A with excess skin (was a full B pre-kids). I am pretty self-conscious about it. I mean they look ok under clothes. So I keep going back and forth on implants. Cost and unnecessary surgery vs nicer boobs.

    I personally barely had a chest before I started losing weight and of course it was one of the first things to go when I started this journey. All of my bras are way to big and I bet I am a small B. My husband is completely satisfied, but I can't say I haven't thought about it!

    I find it amusing that you say you barely had a chest before, and now you've gone *down* to a small B. I'm a small B, but only because pregnancy and breastfeeding made my boobs get bigger. Before that, I had trouble filling out an A cup. :P

    Personally, I've learned to accept and be happy with my small boobs. Some guys actually prefer them. :) But that's also my personality; I don't want any tattoos, either, even though I think my husband's tattoos are great.

    One of my friends got implants after she lost a ton of weight, and she got her boobs restored back to where they were before. She's very happy with it, and looks terrific! I would think that it would be easier to figure out what size you want and such if you lose the weight first, because then you know exactly what the rest of you will look like.

    I have them and just got them 5 years ago... I am a 34DD got 350cc's..I was at my current weight that I am now..

    ^^^^ and they look fabulous! :wink:
    How very inappropriate.
    I'm saving to get mine done. Two kids really take a toll.

    Hmmmm. If you really think that compliment was very inappropriate, you really should rethink getting yours done. You WILL hear this often. If it will be insulting to you, that may be a problem.

    must be a select few that got a chuckle from his humor.

    on a side not a few years ago (before me and my wife were dating) a friend of mine went from nada to nice Cs. they fit her body. im not going to put the rest of the convo because some people will greif me instead of appreciating how twisted both sexes are.

    My best friend throughout childhood had DD's by time she was 13 i gave her my training bras my mom bought me when we were 8 i got called president of the itty bitty titty committee in school, resembling a prepubescent boy til i got pregnant age 23 i breast fed but i only gained like a half a cup (a's were too small, b' s too big) i always always wanted boobies!! My sweetest dreams involved me with boobies! Then i turned 31 (yeah not 30) and i realized that even though i breastfed two kids gained and lost about 70 lb.s twice, my boobs look f'n great! They're still quite modest big a, small b but they look waaay better than most of the chicks i know, at least those ive seen topless.

    I got them, along with a lift after losing, and was done with kids (but I guess I wasn't really done -because here I am pregnant again!) I don't regret it at all, and hope that they still look OK after I have this LAST baby ;-)

    Boob job --- best decision I ever made. I am 100% happy (thrilled) with my decision. My only regret was waiting until I was 30 to get them. I went from a 36A to a 36D with round, high profile, silicone gel implants. I have no idea why but some women want people to think they are naturally a 34DD or whatever. For me, it was pretty obvious that I had implants so I told everyone by posting it on my FB page!!!

    As much as I'm anti-fake boobs, I can understand why women would want them. My aunt has always been insecure with her chest as she's only an A and has always said if her daughter wanted them, when she was old enough, she'd pay for them. I get it, but if you're going to do it get ones that look natural and aren't all pornstar-ish. My mom's got fake ones and they look fake, especially because she's about a hundred pounds soaking wet.

    Think it through, lonnnng and hard. And remember, there are always some amazing push up bras out there.

    I am a 32GG naturally after three babies and four stone weight loss and it would be a bit ridiculous to make them bigger...I would fall over

    I got them about 4 years back. I was a AA, 5'9" and about 160 pounds, so I wasn't in proportion. Now I'm a C, so barely anyone even notices because they fit my body type so well.

    And as for nursing, I had absolutely no issues. Nursed both my children for a year and it was fine. :)

    But I agree, do you research. Be sure to have the implant put in UNDER your muscle. Better, and looks more "real" (although very painful).

    Now that I've reached my goal weight, hell yes I will get them. I started out with a VERY full C and am now a very small B. HORRIBLE.

    Oh man, part of my weight loss goal is to LOSE my boobs. Mine are a 36 H right now and are impossible to manage. At my thinnest they were a DD. So we'll see.

    I know a lot of people who got them after weight loss and it was the best thing they ever did.

    I hate my boobs. Hate hate hate them.

    I'm an A, and my friends have always joked that I have no boobs. But I'm young, I've never been on the pill or been pregnant, so they may well decide to grow.

    For now though, I'm stuck hating them. I'd consider macrolene injections, because they only go up about 1 cup size, is much cheaper, less invasive and painful. Nice round B or C's would be perfect.

    When I was 14, I decided that if I couldn't have.decent boobs, I may as well be skinny to match. I pretty my much stopped eating for three months, and have had issues with food ever since. The girls haven't.gotten.any bigger either.
