Lol thank you

I certainly don't consider them small. Having them lighter and more even is what I'm happy about. The back pain going away for good is what I'll be thrilled about.

My doctor could see slight curvature in my spin from hunching. For liability reasons, she couldn't tell me the reduction would be the answer to all my problems. The back pain was terrible for me which was a huge factor in my decision to go through with the surgery.

For you, make sure you've been sized by a professional. Not Victoria's Secret staff. Invest in good bras - I'd recommend Freya, Fantasie, Panache and Shock Absorber for sports bra. Start strength training/weight lifting. I would only consider a breast reduction as your last solution and once you've weighed all the risks.

My surgeon said not to go below a C cup. I opted for a D. I'm in the process of losing weight as well so once I achieve my ideal weight and if that results in a further loss in my breasts, I'll still be a C.

No his reasoning was more cosmetic. My frame can obviously handle a heavy chest so going down to a B would look really odd. Had I gone lower than a D, it would have made liposuction a requirement as opposed to an option. The portion of the breast that creeps in to the arm pit is where lypo is needed.

I didn't want to lose my assets completely either. :) and my frame can obviously handle a heavier chest.
