Boobs

[lottie:)]

Know this probably sounds a really insignificant worry in the grand scheme of things, BUT with huge weight loss are you always going to be left with extremely saggy boobs ?

 

[Mazza]

It depends, what are they like now for instance. Mine were huge pre op and still are now. Even when I was very, very thin they were big. I wish they would shrink

 

[lottie:)]

Ok so could stay large or shrink, guess I will have to wait and see. Might start saving for a boob job just incase ! Lol

Imagine a tennis ball swinging in a sock!

I had enormous boobs (I was a 38HH) and now they look okay in a bra (I'm now a 32F) but they are basically all skin. if I didn't have all the saggy skin I'd probably be a B cup. gutted!! supportive bras are the way forward - wonderbra ego boost! X

It does depend slightly what your natural build and inclination is. If you are and always were a "top heavy" person who could not lose weight from your bust, you will be likely to still have the same problem.

I know one lady online a successful sleever who went and had a boob REDUCTION op when she got to goal weight as she did not like her baps being so big.

I, on the other hand, will be saving for a "re-fill and push them back up" type of operation which is probably more common.

I am two days out from having an uplift and implants. My boobs went down from 44c/d to 38 a and the a was just skin ... Not even jo's tennis ball

LOOOL
My husband describes mine as spaniels ears I was a 52 H am now 34 DD......theyre pretty awful without a bra, but hey bra's are what marks and spencers do best xxx

Aww flutter must ask how much did it hurt going too get mine done soon as well as TT and I'm soooo chicken x

 

[flutterby1966]

The boobs and scars don't hurt at the moment. It's the binding. Sooo tight. Early days though. I have three more weeks of the binding first check up will be next Thursday when the dressings are removed/changed...and I shall have a better idea of what they will look like. I hear tt does hurt. I am really lucky though, I have almost a washboard stomach which is amazing considering how much weight I have lost. You are brave to think of both ops snack x

 

[lottie:)]

Bet you can't wait to see them flutterby !!

If you don't mind me asking where will the scars be and will they disappear ?

Hi flutterby, can i ask have much your start weight was and how much you've lost as im really worrying about having loose skin as theres no way i could afford a TT or breast lift/inplants
And also what are you arms and thighs like now?

I was 20st 8 and now I am 10st 7 so 10st lost. Thighs arms and but a bit flabby, but I can live with that. Boobs were painful though unless left in bra, which is why I chose to have them done. Not a vanity thing, but to be more comfortable. Having said that, I think some of the feeling is coming back into the nerves, so sore at moment. Off to bed now :sigh:

Sent you a pm with more details as I don't want to detract from weight loss surgery LOL.

I have to be honest I still prefer wearing my Bridget jones ones rather than skimpy ones ... More comforting snack, you just have to go for whatever feels right for you at the end of the day. No more surgery or name change for me ... I am absolutely happy now :cry:
