Re: Curiousity..

[Guest guest]

, I don't think weight has anything to do with what I have

now. I haven't gained more than 10-12 pounds since getting implants

and I'm 1 pound less now than I was when I got them. I have always

weighed more than what I looked like though. When my friends and I

were wearing size 3's, they would weigh 105 and I would be 125! I've

worn a 36A ever since the 5th grade! All my friends could wear 34's

but not me. I think I'm broad shouldered or heavy boned?? If I

could have gotten a 34 around me, I probably would have been a 34B.

The only time I was heavy was after my 3rd child (may 1997) and I

weighed 165 for about a year before I started losing weight. That

was the year before I got implants. When I went in for my pre-op

consult I weighed 130 & 1/2 according to my records. I've stayed

between 128 & 135 for 3 years now and gained about 5-7 pounds this

past summer but I'm back down to 129 now.

I think I had the breast tissue all along and if the implanting

doctor had done just a lift to begin with, I would have been a perky

B. But, I didn't know that then. All I knew is that I was really

saggy and hated how I looked. He even told me last month that if he

took the implants out, he would have to leave the capsules in in

order to leave me with anything at all! He also said I would be even

more flat chested and saggy than I was before implants - even if he

left the capsules. He was such a jerk!

I know for sure that Dr. Darrow removed the entire capsule because

the surgery took 2 hours more than he expected because he had to

dissect the capsule off of my chest wall. I know for sure he didn't

leave anything behind.

I had my first mammogram this past summer and the technician said I

had " tons of breast tissue " . She asked me why I got implants if I

had so much tissue of my own. I had no clue what she was talking

about. I guess I should have educated myself before getting

implants, but I didn't. My husband always told me I would look so

sexy with big boobs, so I always felt mine were inadequate. Like so

many other women, I guess I had an adequate amount but felt like I

wasn't sexy enough if I didn't look like a Secret model! I

could go on and on! But I better get something done around here!

Talk about rambling...Sorry! Talk to you later.

Well that is lucky for you, I know that for some wieght may not be an

issue, but for me it sure was, when I was heavier I had allot more

breast tissue. Breasts are fatty tissue so if your body fat goes up

then your breasts tend to go up too! I don't know that weight always

tells the story anyhow, I think body fat percentage tells allot more.

I know if I was around 22 or more percent I would probably be a B

cup, but I would rather be skinny and flat hee hee. I am like you

though, I weigh 125 and fit in 3's and sometimes even 2's. it seems

funny to weigh that much and wear such a small size doesn't it? hee

hee, anyhow it is muscle I am sure. I could not imagine me weighing

105 pounds, I think I would look really ill.

Congrats on your outcome you look great!
