I seem to have misplaced

the 2 lumps that used to be on my chest, any idea where they might have gone????

Seriously I am about 68 pounds done from Jan of 2010 and one month post op and suddenly I have lost my breasts! I look down and all I see is baggy shirt material where they used to be. I am not sure how I feel about that.

I am not looking forward to anymore surgery, but I do think when I have my tummy tuck, I will have to get the girls replaced:)

sorry gals, can't relate with you there. . . I have always hated my boobs, so much in fact that in 2000 I had them reduced big time. . they took 14lbs off each one. . . can you believe that! and that left me with a 44D! Now that I've lost 145 lbs I'm a 38D, they just don't seem to want to leave. . . it's my butt that I worry about. . .but at this time it's still rounded and cute. . . thank god for genetics in that area! :lol:

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I'm getting my girls replaced big time. I can not stand not having boobs. I don't feel feminine without a bra. I hate looking at my flat chest. Most people do not believe they look "this bad", but believe me, they are horribly ugly.

I would almost get boobs over a tummy tuck at this point. I'm starting the consultation portion of the insurance hoops after the 1st of the year.

I fear I will be totally flat, already small in that area at a B cup and I havent even had surgery yet :( Totally getting the girls replaced and a tummy tuck after I lose the weight.

I totally just noticed this today myself!!!! I am down 30lbs and have a lot more to go so I'm scared what is going to happen then!! LOL

Annoys me because in 2005/2006 I lost 50lbs so that I could get a breast reduction (they were a 42F) and even loosing that weight my breasts didn't move but now that I am losing this weight they are moving and they are already small enough!! LOL

Tiff, does insurance cover the girls??? I know the doc can get the tummy thing pushed through due to rashes and things, but the girls???

I wear an A cup now down from a C and believe me I hate it too. I never did have big ones, but I am smaller now that I was in High School. I'm not going to pay for boobs though. I'd rather have a face lift. I've gone bra less most of my life every change I get, and that is one good thing. Now I can go without one even more. I have to wear one to work, but that's about it. Oh yeah, I wear a heavily padded one on dates.

Most insurance companies will not pay for breast implants without a medical necessity such as deformity or after other breast surgery.

Our insurance will cover breast implants, but I have to claim mental defect, and have to jump through major hoops and they may still not cover them. I know a few ladies that have been able to get them covered, but it takes some time. I do have extra skin under my arms, and I can claim some skin irritation under the skin so we'll just have to see what I can get covered.

Best of luck! I will be self pay I am sure.

You sound like me. I didnt have a reduction, but I wouldnt mind if the "gilrls" were to go down. I am more scared of my bottom going some where!

Well, I feel like a hot mess! My rump has disappeared and my girls look like two deflated balloons. So sad. : ( But, would I do it all again? In a heart beat!!

Tiffykins, let me know how that goes, I am planning to do the same as you and need ideas. I will be sleeved on the 17 of January and won’t be having PS until 2012 but I want to start getting everything in order.

A friend of mine just went with the rash all over idea and was able to get the abdominoplasty and Breast Lift paid for by the insurance.

Good Luck!!!

I am with you too ladies... now in a very flat b cup with room! I think by the end, I too will just have that empty space... never had big boobs!!

I would love a boob lift and TT when I am ready, but I will have to pay and not sure if I will be able to afford it! Best start saving now eh?!

I've only just crossed over that weight threshold where real changes are happening to the body itself; I'm 73 lbs down and recently went on R&R (vacation). I was eager to go to my favorite lingerie boutique back home to see what new size I would wear; I adore this shop, it is in a tiny coastal town that still relies on the JC Penny catelog delivery, and gives the local women some femininity, quality, and glamour.

Well, after an hour of trying on bras, I was really frustrated. The bras I had were 40DDD and 42 DDD. Clearly the 42s were out, and maybe the 40s too. Also, the Triple Ds were definitely out, but was I in just a single D?!! Turns out - not that simple. =( All this emtpy surplus pudding-skin distorted the shape of my breasts, and my side-boob-fat is now floppy and refuses to tuck away quietly. =( =(

I ended up buying 38Ds in my favorite brand (Lunaire) but I think I should have bought 40 DDs because now it is an upsetting chore to tuck and tamp down all the pudding skin. =(
