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.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
