running and implants - any experience anyone?
Hi I am a runner and run about 15 miles per week. After losing 100+ lbs, I am in need of a breast lift and implants more from a reconstructive perspective than vanity! I love being thin and don't mind being flat chested after years of being so large up top.
My question is for those of you that also run long distances, has anyone had implants or a breast lift and any advice from the angle of it not interfering with your running? My worry is that implants or larger breasts will interfere with my mileage goals. I'd like to run a half marathon this year.
Any advice is appreciated!
I've had a lift and implants. Implants for vanity. Lift out of necessity. I didn't want huge honkers, but if you just get the lift it will leave you looking empty. The doctor gave me implants which fit my body, not looking too big or small.
I have 38Ds.
With that said, I've done 3 Ironman triathlons, each which have a marathon at the end.
So. No, just buy a good bra.

That's good to know Sherry - I hope to buy myself some new boobies someday - LOL!!
I would think as long as you wear a good sports bra, you would be fine. I currently am sporting a pair of sad 34 D's and I have no problems - I wear an encapsulating bra from Champion - nothing moves in that sucker - LOL!!

Ugh, I am in serious need of a lift after losing 140 pounds! However, since I am unable to have that done (hey, maybe I'll win the lottery!), I have to live with my size 34 DDD/Gs ... is it NOT fun to run with them. Seriously! Trying to find a sports bra isn't fun. They bounce, they chafe, they make my running uncomfortable!
So, go for the lift, maybe some reasonably sized implants ... and find a good bra! Maybe even double up on bras (I have to). I'm sure you'll be fine!
