Help! Save me from the Boobie Greed Monster

I was thinking of having 300cc put in, but now I'm reconsidering the whole thing and I'm looking at 350cc or even 400cc. Is this just the Boobie Greed Monster influencing me? The thing is that I've heard after the op a lot of women wish they'd actually gone bigger than they did, so I'm thinking that it's best to err on the large side. But then other times I think it's just the Boobie Greed MOnster egging me on.

From everyone I know who's had a boob job, most wish they had gone bigger. It's easy to say when you're starting out with next to nothing that you would be happy just to be an average C cup, but once you have that it's often not enough for you. To have the surgery repeated to go larger is very costly, so my advice is go a little bigger than you initially thought you wanted to. I have done herbs and BO and have grown from an A to a large B/small C (depending on the brand of bra) and when I started all of this I said I'd be happy to be a full B, but now I want to be a large C/small D!

Really large implants only look good if you already have quite a bit of breast tissue to start with. It looks awful when girls who are less than an A cup go too large because you are able to see the outlines of the implant and it lookd very unnatural with two volleyballs under tight skin on a small frame.
If you are reasonably tall, have a larger frame and already got some breasts to start with, then the chance of looking good with big implants is better.
I have a friend who was a small B and rather slim. After having 4 kids, her breasts had become very flat and saggy so she went for implants. She chose to be a D cup. Now, years later - and many many POUNDS later, they are more like large grotesque hanging E or F cups. She has to wear a bra at all times, even in bed, because they'd hang down to her knees if she didn't. I find her body ugly and I'm glad I never got implants myself.
When you decide to go big, think about what they will look like later on when you put on weight and gravity hits. And big bouncy firm balls look very odd on an older woman too... It's just hard to get big implants to look good on someone.

Realistically they only have a lifespan of about 10yrs so surely you can either have smaller ones put in next time, or when you get to be old enough that you'd rather be comfortable just have them removed altogether.

Sure, you can take them out after ten years or go smaller, but how saggy would that look on a scale from one to ten, when your skin and tissues are all stretched out and there is nothing there to fill it?

I have heard of women who wished they had gone bigger and even had another op in order to go bigger. But I can't remember hearing of anyone who had another op to go smaller.

I agree with Fennel Fairy. It seems to me that going smaller after 10 years could end up looking horrible. I don't think anyone should be thinking like that.

After women have a boob job they think it's great at first, but then they get used to the new size and it doesn't seem so big anymore. That's why there are many cases now of women having a second op.
