Oh Chest Where Art Thou?



Recommended Posts

Before the weight loss, I was a 44DD and now I'm a 32D. I thought I was a smaller cup size but the professional bra fitter said no. Problem is that I literally have to pour my breasts into the bra cups. They are nothing but skin. I may have boob surgery in the future but for now, I rely on the bra as I do all my foundation garments to make me look good in clothing. As far as out of clothes..well, that's for another thread..lol.

Like JamieLogical, I LOVE my fake boobies. After losing weight multiple times over a decade or so and then finally having sleeve surgery a little over a year and a half ago, my girls had also left the building...they just took the elevator down to my waist on the way out. I looked like I had saggy, floppy tube socks on my chest. I decided one day to go see a surgeon about getting new ones, and 8 months later that surgeon has now done pretty much every body contouring procedure possible on me. Of everything, my boobs and my stomach are my favorite and given how they just stay sitting on my chest whether I'm wearing a bra or not is constantly amusing to me. Had I known how much I would love fake breasts, I would have done it years ago.

So...if you're thinking about plastics, I'm sure you will love the results you get!

If you don't mind me asking about how much did the body contouring and implants cost? Do you know the range of pricing. I kind of want to know what I should expect if I want plastic surgery after I reach goal. Thanks!

I would like to hoist up the girls.. Soon. ...Without implants... My concern is my port 2" down in the middle...

Any one have breast surgery w/ mid- port?

I was concerned w/ TT/ plication but surgeon said he saw my port ... So perhaps this is done more than I know.... Which is nothing about breast lifts..

I went from a DD to a B. And the only reason I'm a B is because of all the loose skin I have to stuff in the cups. In fact, one day I accidentally put my sports bra on backwards and it fit fine! And I couldn't be more thrilled. If I were to ever have surgery, it would be to remove skin with NO enhancement. Without the extra skin, I would definitely be an A and probably wouldn't even bother with a bra. I spent the first 45 years of my life dealing with "the sisters", and I'm perfectly happy to spend the next 45 without them.

My butt and hips went bye bye along with my boobs, so with my thin, muscular arms and flat tummy I've been told I look like a preteen boy....a "curse" I am happy to bear. It's so easy much easier to buy clothes with this shape.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
