My insurance approved me for a breast reduction. No problem. First request. I'm still MO. Actually, I'm MO again. This is not about weight loss or goals or anything except bigger than necessary boobs. Hmmm.

Leatha, with the trend toward more bloodless surgeries, lasers, and laproscopic techniques, shorter operating and anesthestic downtimes...hopefully by the time you're ready, it won't be such a dangerous procedure for you.

I definitely could use breast reduction/lift .

I actually laughed when I read this. Ive seen you in real life - as if YOU need one!!!

DD's (HH in custom fit) are definitely a heavy load on a 5ft frame. :-)~ and they may be hanging lower, but they are not getting any smaller. :-)~

Don't MAKE me show my boobs here on LBT!!

Don't forget to document everything about your tummy. From rashes, painful skin breakouts and odors. One other thing to mention as you lose more and more weight is your center of gravity being off. Some folks have even fallen because their center of gravity is so forward that they lose balance after so much weight loss and still have the large "apron" out front. These are just some of the things a nurse mentioned to me. So, in order for insurance to possibly cover the apron removal, document EVERYTHING no matter how gross or discusting it may seem to you.

I have just started my band journey, but at my primary physician's office the other day, I mentioned documenting any and all problems I may have with the apron and she said they would write anything and everything I told them down in my chart so that they could submit all info to the insurance co. I hope it works, because when I lose this weight I will have a big apron to get rid of. Not to mention all the other plastic surgeries, at least my insurance will cover the apron removal, but not the other ones. Oh well, I'll take what they will cover and then try to figure a way to have the other surgeries done.

Just another huge joke from the Big Guy above. I'm huge, 5'10", 250 lbs, size 11 feet, and dropped from a C cup to a B cup after losing 60 pounds. And my B cups are getting a little floppy. Everything is big except the one thing I want to be big. Grass is always greener......

Greg! Jack! TallGuy! All you other men! Don't you see what's happening? They're trying to make 'em SMALLER!

Oh the humanity. Say it ain't so!

LMAO Ryan.. OMG Greg!! ROFL

I am too SCARED to see what my custom fit size would be. Aint NOONE have VV as big as THESE bazoomba's!

Nana, my reservastions about a reduction are the same as yours. I look at my mom who was VERY large busted at one time and now they are like tube socks, so I certainly wouldnt want to have the OTHER problem

(too small).

Congrats, Sue!!!

But... Is Mr. Sue okay with this? lol

Even if I wanted a reduction, I don't think Mr. Donali would allow it... lol

Perhaps the docs could take the extra from all their reductions and make them into surrogate breasts for all those guys out there who just can't get enough (Greg, Ryan, Jack, Tall Guy... ).

Before Patty had her RNY surgery she was a 50JJ, and she was 5'4" tall! Now she's lost 271 pounds. and she's a 48 long.

sigh. Yes, I miss 'em. But on the bright side, I now can get closer to her! I can reach all the way around her to hug! It ain't all bad! And, most important of all, I'll get to hug her for more years!

I'll get to hug her for more years!

I say AMEN to that Ryan. Hope you have many many years together.

nana, there is a chance of numb nipples, but not in every case.... i would propable take numb nipples over back pain, and ones that give me black eyes when i run.....

greag you kill me..... i never know what i'm gonna read in your posts....

I have NO breasts now, i can only imagne after or when i start losing weight Ahhhh you all can share with me hehehe

Trish wouldn't it be nice 1 time in your life to actually tell a Dr. you wanted something inlarged... I would love to say that but at this point I want everything smaller first. HAHA!!!

Greg-

Your too funny...the boob joke and the cartoon are priceless...

I'm new to the board but had to reply to this...thanks for the chuckle.
