Default Just a few days left of the "old" me.....

I'm getting a breast lift and augmentation. Plus a full 360 body lift and tuck. Just about eveything it appears! I won't reconize myself in the morning!

Marie~

Did Dr. Nigro detrmine the size of your breasts or did you ask him to make you a certain size...meaning...did he tell you how many cc's he was gonna fill you with and stuff? Just a curiousity question that maybe you can PM me if you don't want to share here. Good luck in a few days...you will be a whole new person.

No, I haven't chosen a size yet. I'll do that on surgery day. At pre-op, Amelia said to go home and try on various bras. I have a bunch of falsies, so I took them to the store and experimented. I really liked the way I look with a full C/small D cup. The final size will depend on my muscle structure and Dr. Nigro will only go as big as it looks good. He doesn't like to make a person into a porn star .

I will let you know what the final outcome is once I get home and settled. Heck, you can see it in person at the picnic on the 30th!

Just a few hours to go. 1130 in the morning. I literally will become a new person. I have changed so much inside, now the outside to follow. Who know what other changes my life will have!

Default Marie!

I've been thinking of you ever since I got up this morning. You've been in my prayers for a smooth surgery and quick and uneventful recovery.

Call if you need anything! I can't wait to see the results!

Well as usual I am a day late and a dollar short. Marie, you looked fantastic at the picnic, swelling, drain and boobs to boot. I can't wait to see you when you are all healed. Your breasts looked real good, didn't even realize you had them done!

Glad you made it safely over here.
