Okay, to start off I was talking to my boyfriend about getting a breast reduction.He said he doesn't agree with it because its disrespecting my body, but he feels its ok to get implants. He says my boobs are what really made him pay attention to me(38DD). He told me he would most likely leave me if I got a reduction? What should I do?Is he being selfish by doing/sayin this?

Also, If I lose weight what should I expect in the breast size? I understand they wont go from a DD to a B but, if I lost 25lbs would I need plastic surgery to tighten the skin on my chest from the weight lose?

Tell him to take a hike, it is bettering your HEALTH whereas implants could cause issues. He obviously does not care about your health OR you, and only your breasts. You deserve MUCH better than that "guy", and I use that term loosely.

Losing weight MAY help, but it all depends on the amount of fatty tissue versus dense breast tissue you have. I did not lose ANY while losing weight. I also know some who gained a cup size trying to lose weight!

He's a pompous *** and you can tell him I said so!!! I have a great guy who supported my decision through my surgery and all my after care as well. There ARE nice guys out there, and yours is NOT one of them!

Anyone in a relationship that is more concerned for a certain part of your body than of you is not a true companion. I would consider looking for someone who cares about you and not a part of your body.

I would only consider breast reduction if your size is a problem for your health or emotional state because the risks involved in the procedure are just as serious or worst as breast enlargement.

You are right that there won't be a significant loss in breast size from just losing weight. I also don't believe a 25lb loss would be enough to have plastic surgery. You would want to get completely down to your desired weight first and then worry about excess skin.

Ok baby I think I am the right one to answer your question. I have 42DD breasts and want to get a reduction myself so I know what you feel like. I think your boyfriend is being selfish and unreasonable because they are your breasts and the only reason you would've wanted to do this is because obviously you don't like them. Well, maybe you need to explain fully to him why you would want a reduction and then maybe he'll be a little more understanding. If he still doesn't care then you really need to reconsider if yourboyfriend truly loves you or just your body! About the weight, if you loose about 25 lbs, assuming that you are not really overweight, it will not dramatically affect your breast size it will probably go down about 5 sizes to about 33DD. Unless, of course you do exercises that target your upper body and do alot of those then you will see different results. In this case you won't need to worry about loose skin, especially if you are under thirty, because the exercise will tighten that area for you along with your skin's natural elasticity. Trust me!

Not to be offensive, but how old are you that you're willing to let your bf decide your health issues. If he only likes you because you have large breasts, than I'd suggest you get another bf, somebody who will want to be with you because of who you are as a person. If you feel the need to have your breasts reduced, there are a number of steps to go through, wt loss , finding a physician who will be willing to do the surgery, finding some physician who has experience in doing reductions, fight with your insurance company about paying for the operation. Good luck with that one.

first off, it's your body. if you bf were to leave you because you got a reduction, he is obviously superficial and you'd be better off w/o him. not to mention he's a hypocrit if he's OK w/ implants, but a reduction is disrespecting your body. what kind of sh*t is that?

i went for a consultation (i'm a 36DDD) and they told me to try and lose weight. it is quite possible if you lost 25 lbs. that you breasts would get a little smaller, but it really depends on your body. my friend was a little heavy in high school but in college she was a competitive swimmer and lost about 50 lbs. and a lot of it was in her breasts. so i'd say its worth a shot if you are overweight. if you're a healthy weight, most likely your breast size will not decrease.

what happened with me was that my insurance denied me for surgery, which meant i would have had to pay myself, so i re-evaluated. i decided to wait until after i have children so i can breastfeed and who knows what will happen after that.

whatever you decide, good luck. go for a consult. its free and you can find out more infomation.

Really, your breast size would not be affected much by weight loss. Breast reduction is the best way to go, and I would not listen to your boyfriend. How dare he say that he would leave you! He is being extermely selfish! That means he doesn't really love you. His feelings are purely superficial and he doesn't like you for who you are. Don't do it for him. Do it for you.

As breast tissue is fat then yes as you lose weight some of the fat from your breasts will go also, however it depends how your body loses the weight, some people only lose a small amlunt from breasts and some lose it first

first off he is only attacted to your for your boobs, you should get the surgery for you and only for you not for him or anyone. also if you lose some weight than weight from your boobs will go down but you wont need any surgery. do what you want to do

okay, i can only answer the first question, so here it goes...

it seems like your boyfriend only likes you for your body, and more specifically, your breasts. so here's a question for you: what is true love to you?

A) a guy who only noticed me for my body and only likes my boobs, and doesn't support my dicisions that i share with him, since i'm a good girlfriend

OR

B) a guy who noticed me for my conversation, and supports me in everything i do, and supports my decision of breats reduction to make myself comfortable with my body.

if you chose A), then i think that you should dump this guy, even if you think that he really loves you. if he really did love you, he wouldn't notice you for your breasts. and also, do you think a true boyfriend would leave you if you got a breast reduction? please save yourself from this inconsiderate guy who only thinks of himself.
