I currently wear a large in tops as long as the material has some give to it. I also have a problem due to my bust size. My arms measure 17 1/2 inches and my bra size is a 38G. My next procedure is a reduction and lift.

Not sure what my current weight is. I'll weigh on Tuesday. Hoping to have lost a couple more pounds.


I'm a 36G. I don't have an issue with most tops, I usually buy mediums. My arms measure 14.5 but they look like yours.

I want a lift but not a reduction, large breasts are pretty normal in my family, mine don't bother me and I would like to keep them.

Thanks for responding

I've wanted a breast reduction since I was in high school. Can't wait till that one is done too.

It is done! I already feel like a different person. I will take some pictures in a few days. Not sure how much tissue he removed. I don't even remember him coming into my room after let alone what he said. lol. I'll ask him at my first post op appointment.

All in all I'm feeling really good! Haven't taken any more pain meds since last night.

I went in for my post op and saw my new arms for the first time. I love them! What a difference! I will try and get some pictures this evening. My doctor took the drains out and cleared me to go back to work when I want. So happy right now!

Awesome!! I hope I don't need that surgery, but at least it's nice to know there are success stories and it's not too bad...just in case.

I actually have very little pain. More discomfort. I'm surprised how easy it's been so far!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
