Krista,It all begins very early with the messages we get through the media . . . and from little careless remarks overheard here and there by children. We've been "programmed" from early on to consider appearance so important.We all need to put some serious thought into how we came to feel this way so we can release these uncomfortable feelings and appreciate our natural selves.BTW, I don't think that women with emotional issues choose breast implants . .. I think it's that they chose not to live once they become sick because of breast implants and receive no help from the medical community. Terribly tragic! The most suicidal women are those whose children are

sick because of the implants. For the women to deal with their own illness, their child's illness, and the guilt they (unjustifiably) feel, is enough to cause even the strongest woman to break.It always has been easier to blame the women than the implants though!Rogene

I agree with you 100% Krista. . . I didn't express myself well.I believe the increased suicide rate among women with implants is because of the health problems implants cause both the women and their children. The SiliconeKid mothers have a terrible time dealing with their children's issues because they believe their choice to get implants made their children sick - even though women are still being told that breast implants don't harm children. . . . even though there are few studies that show otherwise.When a woman is desperately ill . .. no job, no money, no insurance, no family or medical support and, most importantly, no hope, they may feel suicide is their only choice. . . . Terribly

tragic!Hugs,Rogene Re: Opinions: Plastic surgery: a quick fix for happiness

Rogene- I didn't follow your whole post, the part where it said "I

think it's that they chose not to live once they become sick because

of breast implants and receive no help from the medical community."

But, I definitely did not say that women with emotional problems

choose breast implants. I DO think (although I didn't say this) that

SOME women who have emotional problems get implants, I've seen it

first hand, I'm sure we all have. They think it is going to

dramatically change their lives for the better, and when implants

don't, there is a let down. But, I by no means think that all women

who choose breast implants have emotional problems. I was just trying

to say that women need to change their perception of their bodies. We

need to stop thinking that we have to have huge breasts to be

beautiful and accepted, that was all I was saying. And, I think that

we need to stop looking at plastic surgery as a quick fix to all of

our problems. I think we need to concentrate more on health, things in

life that we enjoy, our families, and find peace within ourselves.

Krista,

The suicide rate among implanted women is 4-5 times greater than that of other plastic surgery patients! Brain and lung cancer is higher too!

"They" would have you to believe it's because the women were unstable to begin with!

NOT TRUE!

My coworker thinks I need a boob job to look better. It's hard to fight the constant pressure this gives me.

Re: Opinions: Plastic surgery: a quick fix for happiness

Rogene- Yes, it is horribly tragic that there is no help in themedical community for women like us. That is one of the first things Inoticed when I started to feel sick....there was no help! I can't evenbegin to imagine what it must feel like to feel like you haveunintentionally harmed your child.I wasn't at all commenting on women who feel suicidal after they gettheir implants and their children are sick and they feel guilty. Ihave no idea if there is any connection between women with implantsand women without implants who feel suicidal. I was merely commentingon the fact that I wish women weren't brain washed into thinking theyneeded them in the first place! That in itself is a directrelationship to our psychie. Not so much of an emotional instability,just that our psychies have been brainwashed into thinking we needthem to be beautiful. I just wish I could wave my magic wand and everywoman out

there who feels like plastic surgery is going to change herlife, make her happier, make her feel more important and morevaluable, would find that peace within herself and realize she justdoesn't need plastic surgery to feel all of those things. This issomething that I continue to struggle with every day and probably willcontinue to struggle with for a very very long time.~Krista> > >> > > Krista,> > > > > > It all begins very early with the messages we get through the media> > . . . and from little careless remarks overheard here and there by> > children. > > > > > > We've been

Ballerina ~

It is a shame your co-worker has such a low self

image and is trying to put it on you as well.

The pressure to lower your self esteem by co-workers

can be balanced with the pressure from you to love and

embrace your God given confidence and beauty.

For you to stand strong in your self confidence and

natural beauty, might teach others to embrace themselves

as well.

Dont let others fakery and fake sense of beauty rub

off on you..... embrace your beauty ~ and your confidence

and your strength......you have it all.......right now.....

I suppose that you should turn the table on

this " Rectal Cranial Inversion" of a man, and

hold a business card over his man parts

and say something like my goodness, I never

realized the size of your brains.......were less

than half the size of your business card

I am sorry, but, this is sexual harrasment.......

This person is very demeaning. What he is

doing to you is wrong......dont let someone

with bad behavior make you feel bad or less

than. You can get very creative and say

something to put them in their place.

Look at them and just say........cancer is crule,

but I believe you take the cake.....if there is

anything lacking here, I believe you should take

a long look in the mirror.

You can gain weight because of fatigue and pain and not being as

active.

You can loose sensation in your breasts

You can get sick all the time because your body is fighting a foreign body

and doesnt have any soldiers to fight infection

here is something I have posted before:

see this, it is a safe implant.

Per: doctors, FDA, and drug companies

The FDA says about 6 percent get

necrosis, hum...300,000 people implants

in 2005, hum.......so, how many is that?

its huge ! now check this out, these are very safe: NOT !

Look at these lovely safe saline implants:

Honey, a pair of heavy water balloons flopping around on your chest every time you try to do a " tur sha tay" ( I know I misspelled it, but you should know what I am saying ) , and slapping you in the face mid flight, you will change your mind real fast. They are heavy, you feel them in there inbetween you and your partner, and it feels weird.

They never feel natural or real. You and your husband otta take classes in

Kuma Sutra or something. Learn to love your body and allow your husband to also. Embrace the fact your hubby loves you like you are, he loves the real you, not a plastic barbie. See what's new at AOL.com and Make AOL Your Homepage.

Thank you for this. So often it feels like everyone has boobs but me, and I feel cheated. I want them so bad (natural ones), and having someone draw attention to it makes me self-conscious. I don't think I'd have ever considered implants if it weren't for this particular co-worker. Today he said something kind of nice to me about them- he told me he wasn't going to look at them (he put a golf score card over them to make his point), and said that he will just look at my face and that I'd be the same person no matter what boobs I had. He knows I'm tormented by this decision, so I guess that was nice. It's a little demeaning to have your chest be completely obscured from view by a measly golf score card, though!

Hi Ballerina,I knew it had to have been a Man. Please do not let anyone dictate to you about breast size. I felt like that 19 years old when I got mine. I was explanted in July 2007 and have had nothing but problems ever since. I've been on disability the whole time I've been that sick. Infection after infection.Perhaps he used the golf score card because that would more than cover his penis!Hugs,TraciBallerina Breastaug <ballerinabreastaug@...> wrote: Thank you for this.

Actually, he has told me that his wife complains of his small penis. I took pictures of his butt with my cell phone today. When I showed them to him, he became very disturbed. At first he didn't even know whose butt it was! I pointed out that it was his outfit right that minute and the surrounding cubicles that he was standing near right that minute.. He yelled out, "That's an old man's butt!" Being the typical woman, I told him that no, it looks great and should be on the cover of Esquire. I guess that was my chance to lash back if I'd wanted to.

Ballerina,

ly, I'd consider what your co-worker is doing to be sexual harassment . . .

And, unless it puts your job in jeopardy, I'd tell him so! Then, if he persists, I'd talk to his manager.

This kind of behavior in the workplace is outrageous.

Of course, what I'd really like to tell him that, if he was a real man, he wouldn't say crap like that . . . And, that they do make silicone balls and penile implants he could get - if he'd like to experience the joy of silicone for himself!

He is interested in a penile implant, but I think only in a joking way. Like I know he wants to be bigger, but not enough to go through with that.

Thanks so much. I know that it crossed the line for harassment a long time ago. He used to ask me what size bra I was wearing- every single day. (Before he moved to a remote campus we used to sit next to each other) He not only wants me to get implants, he's told me what photos to show the surgeon to make sure I get "good ones" (the pictures are of a particular 's Secret model that this guy is infatuated with). He's married, I'm married. So what is his deal? I don't get the impression that he does this with his wife. Why me? Well, maybe it's because his wife wears a 34D- at least, she used to before she lost the weight. Now she won't tell him what size she wears (I wonder why!) That poor woman must be in

hell about her boobs with him being the way he is. He definitely crushed my self-esteem when it comes to my boobs. I hate this. Are there any words of wisdom you can share that you learned in your implant days? Like are there any reasons not to get them besides the health risks? (not that those aren't reason enough!) Why do women seem to stop exercising/gain weight after they get them? Or do they just look like they've gained weight? Are women too tired to exercise or do the boobs get in the way? I've never gotten straight answers to those questions. Re: Re: Opinions: Plastic surgery: a quick

Ballerina,There are a thousand reasons why you wouldn't want to get breast implants! . . . Just read through the messages in the archives to see how sick our women have been! Can you afford to risk your Health? Health insurance, Career, Family, Savings? Health of future children? Home? Life? . . . If you're willing to put any of these on the line so some *** **** can approve of your boobs, small boobs aren't the problem. Hugs,Rogene

[Guest guest]

I've internalized his views for some reason. God knows why. He listens to country music!!! I listen to hard rock & metal. He lives for sports. I hate them. He makes fun of ballet AND my male ballet instructor, who he's never met (he doesn't make fun of my female ballet instructors). He slicks his hair back with goop, which is something I've always hated on every man. He is a classic "pretty boy"with blonde hair and blue eyes, which I've always hated. He tells me his toes are very ugly, and I believe him. I don't know what it is about him, but I feel like I've known him forever (and he's said he feels the same) and I have this huge huge urge to be what he wants, and a huge urge to WANT TO BE what he wants. That's

what I'm fighting, because a big part of me is repelled by the idea of implants. I had a surgery date set for December 4 but I canceled it on November 5 because I was feeling sick thinking of having something in me that I really don't want there. But I have convinced myself that some clothes might look better if I had bigger breasts. Does that "clothes look better" thing really pan out, or is it just part of the "boob job sales campaign"? I keep trying to convince myself I want these things so I can feel comfortable around him. He's kind of like Bill Clinton. Maybe he's a lot like Bill Clinton. He makes people feel good! He's so polite and nice (to other people) and I think he's just a dumb oaf who feels too comfortable with me, so he tells me WAY too much. (like how he stares at this one AT & T woman's nipples through her shirt when he takes her to lunch at an outdoor cafe, who's "hot" that we work with, who's "hot" on TV, his favorite porn stars,

how he watches his kids' workout tape just to see the workout lady's boobs move around, etc.) Boobs boobs boobs- he's so fixated on this one body part that I happen not to have!

Ballerina,What does your Husband say about this? This man (for lack of a better word), is a bully and a predator. He's only interested in one thing and that's getting into your pants.There are so many other good men and women out there that would be privileged to have you as your friend.His charisma is poison!Here's my top ten reasons (not health-related) NOT to get implants:1. Clothing looks like crap.2. People only see your boobs not you.3. People think you are less intelligent.4. Implants are only good for about 5 - 10 years therefore: 5. The stress of repeat surgeries. 6. Financial commitment.7. Lack of self esteem.8. Lack of self worth.9. Having an unnatural look.10. Real MEN don't like implants.Please talk with your Husband and try to reconnect with him and PLEASE stay away from this

which is something I've always hated on every man. He is a classic "pretty boy"with blonde hair and blue eyes, which I've always hated. He tells me his toes are very ugly, and I believe him. I don't know what it is about him, but I feel like I've known him forever (and he's said he feels the same) and I have this huge huge urge to be what he wants, and a huge urge to WANT TO BE what he wants. That's what I'm fighting, because a big part of me is repelled by the idea of implants. I had a surgery date set for December 4 but I canceled it on November 5 because I was feeling sick thinking of having something in me that I really don't want there. But I have convinced myself that some clothes might look better if I had bigger breasts. Does that "clothes look better" thing really pan out, or is it just part of the "boob job sales campaign"? I keep trying to convince myself I want these things so I can feel comfortable around him. He's kind of like Bill Clinton. Maybe he's a lot

like Bill Clinton. He makes people feel good! He's so polite and nice (to other people) and I think he's just a dumb oaf who feels too comfortable with me, so he tells me WAY too much. (like how he stares at this one AT & T woman's nipples through her shirt when he takes her to lunch at an outdoor cafe, who's "hot" that we work with, who's "hot" on TV, his favorite porn stars, how he watches his kids' workout tape just to see the workout lady's boobs move around, etc.) Boobs boobs boobs- he's so fixated on this one body part that I happen not to have!

Husband used to go to games with the guy, but now they don't hang out anymore. Husband knows we're close, and I think suspects him of putting this whole breast implant thing in my head. Husband HATES implants, used to love my boobs, then stopped caring about them after I lost 40 pounds. (he'd deny that to his death, but I know from his actions that they no longer interest him). He's asked me a thousand times, "Who is making you feel this way?" and I just tell him "no-one". I told him once that the coworker says all men prefer implants. My husband responded, "(coworker's name) is gay". He said no straight man would say that. But husband is supportive of me getting implants if that's what I want (this after many

conversations, trying to get him to understand how bad I feel). I told him tonight that I'm on this board, and I told him some of the things I've been reading. He was very quiet, which I took to mean he's hoping I'll be swayed from getting them in. I can't tell anymore if he's now been sold on them too or if he still hates them. I know he'll love me either way. Re: Re: Opinions: Plastic surgery: a quick fix for happiness

Ballerina,

ly, I'd consider what your co-worker is doing to be sexual harassment . . .

And, unless it puts your job in jeopardy, I'd tell him so! Then, if he persists, I'd talk to his manager.

Of course, what I'd really like to tell him that, if he was a real man, he wouldn't say crap like that . . . And, that they do make silicone balls and penile implants he could get - if he'd like to experience the joy of silicone for himself!

Thanks so much for that input! Two points you wrote confused me a lot- lack of self-esteem and lack of self worth. The Mentor literature says that testing shows an improvement in those areas for women after getting implants. Do those things improve temporarily and then go back down, or is the claim that they improve just completely false? I thought I was getting them to improve those areas. If there's a chance they could get worse, that would really suck.

You husband sounds like a smart man.

I got mine because of vanity. I finally got explanted. When I had implants they didn't feel natural, they felt fake. It was so embarrassing being with a man because they would ask me if they were fake. I wanted implants because I wanted bigger boobs but I hadn't thought that they would feel fake. They were hard. I never gave anybody a hug because I didnt want to press my rock hard chest against them.

Then to top it off I got sick. I had mine for 7 years before getting sick. When I was sick, I never wanted to dress up in sexy clothes to show them off - I was lucky to wear anything other than pajamas. I had horrible hair loss, my skin looks bad, I am still do not have my health back, I am in so much debt because it cost me more to get them out than put them in. I have missed so much work, almost lost my job. My relationship with my hubby has suffered because I am sick and he doesn't understand it. I hate to brag but I was one pretty girl. I am 5'7. Before implant sickness I was size 4. Long brown pretty hair. Green eyes. Long long legs. I could pretty much get almost any man I wanted. I never bought my own drinks at bars - ever.... FAST FOWARD!! My joints ache - I feel like I am 90, my own immune system is attacking itself (killing

my thyroid), my hair is thin, dry, brittle. I have sores on my face that don't heal. I have hyperpigmentation on my skin that won't go away. I can't drink alcohol because it makes me sicker than a dog. I could go on and on. Had I known 7 years ago what could happen to me now - there is no way in hell I would have done this to myself!!! Doctor's lie. They say they are safe. They said the only thing that could happen to my salines is that one could pop and I would have to get it replace - bull!! This site was my only saving grace - had I not found these women I would probably be dead.

I could go on an on. I had only wished I would have researched like you are right now!! I am jealous!! Had I found a site like this before I got implants - I would have NEVER EVER EVER got implants. I would not have taken the risk. No risk is worth my health!

In the end it is your choice and your choice only. You may not even work with this guy in a few years but you'll still have those toxic bombs. If you have kids, they will be affected by the implants!! Is it worth it? Save your money and go on a nice trip with your hubby and try to re-connect. Tell that guy at work to go to hell. Lynn
