Stocking stuffer. Love it. Reminds me of all the Victorian euphemisms for breast and thigh. Maybe we need one for stocking stuffer.

Just out of interest did you have the nipple cut of and repositioned job or the one where they cut everything around the nipple and leave it standing like a cored apple before they remove the excess and tie it all back together like a the plastic around a fruit basket?

You know what, I'm sure I remember them telling me that they were going to cut off my nipples, but I think they did the latter. Either way, they are in the right place now & have minimal scars, which is more than I can say for the rest of the jobby! It took them 5 hours to do it & I weighed a stone less when I came out 5 days later, I was huge (34G) & couldn't have weighed more than 130lbs when I went in.

After I came out, everyone kept asking if I had lost weight & I would reply, yeah, sort of! I used to wear big baggy tops to cover them up, which inevitably make you look fat.

you are right most girls who have enormous titties end up looking fat...but then some aren't...my neighbours bras looked as big as parachutes!!!! having a reduction gave her a new lease on life...she had been getting a little heavy everywhere else but after the procedure lost the weight and looked fab.......not fair really I'd of been happy with just a little of what she got rid of..

Thanks, just me being nosey. I knew of someone who had the first type and her one nipple didn't rejoin. It fell off. She wasn't to bothered though as her breasts before had been so awful she was willing to get rid of them even with a missing nipple. Never got around to asking her if I could have a look. Was dying to though!

Funnily enough, a girl went in after me for a breast enlargement, on the NHS also.

I have a mate who had reduction and she now has lopsided tits, so badly that you can see a nipple on one side if she wears a low cut top
