I'd love a boob job too. I feel extremely uncomfortable around anyone other than my husband if I'm not wearing a bra.... the girls are a little saggy. :( I will definitely consider getting it done once I get a little closer to my goal.

I wish I could offer hope. I have gone from a DD to in between A/B cup. They are small, saggy. I have been checking out dr's. and hope to have it done in the next year as well as my tummy tuck.

I feel ya. :hug:

At my highest weight I was a C cup (and they were already droopy). Now, about 15 pounds lighter, I'm on the border between A and B. And I've still got 20 pounds left to lose.

Once I reach my goal and maintain for a while, I'm definitely looking into breast augmentation surgery. Until then, I'm just investing in good push-up bras along the way as I lose the weight, and using it as motivation to stay on plan and get to goal. :)

My boobs are the first to go when I lose weight. After my second son was born I lost all the baby weight and then some, and I ended up a 32A. I wish I knew how I could keep the boobs and lose the junk in the trunk.

I might consider a boob job and tummy tuck after I get to goal and maintain for a while.

I ended up a very empty AAA after my weight loss, got breast implants on 1/22. I'm very happy with the results!

I'd like to get one, simply because one is noticeably smaller than the other! I hate it. I think I'd deal with it if I just had B's. But I've got like...one B & one C. I hope they don't shrink anymore with my last 15 pounds, unless just the one shrinks to make them even. haha.

I had it done several years ago and am very happy with the results especially now that I'm losing weight.

If any of you wanting to get it done live in Northern Virginia you should see Dr. Tavalali (think that's the correct spelling, it's close at least).

As for cost, it was about 5k 3 years ago, (at least for me) not sure of the cost now.

Make sure you research the Dr. check out his/her record and make sure there are no major lawsuits or issues.

If you know or have friends who've had it done, ask to see their pictures if they're willing to show em and decide which "look" you prefer. Rounder, Perkier, etc. (yes, there are different "looks"), so know what you would like the finished look to be. :dizzy:

If you want a lift, go ahead and get it done all at once or you'll regret it. I wanted to get a lift and hubby didn't, I wish I'd ignored him and gotten it. They're not really saggy, but I think they would look even better had they been lifted a little. Oh well, maybe I'll get them redone in a couple of years. ;)

Go a little bigger than you think you want because a huge percentage of people who do it wish they'd gone bigger after the fact. Notice I said a little bigger than you think you want but NOT 3 sizes bigger than you think you want :D

You can finance these types of surgeries also, so if you really want it, I'd say get it, but wait until you're at goal, because you are very sore (exercising would be tough) for several weeks at least. That way you're at maintenance and it doesn't set your weight loss back.

Good luck!
