How much did your boobs add to your weight?

heatkc · 08-14-2009, 09:25 PM

This may be such a silly question but I am curious how much weight your boobies added after your breast augmentation? It seems like it takes forever to lose 5 pounds and eventhough I am losing weight right now I am afraid come September after my breast augmentation that I will gain the weight of my new tatas. It is a good weight but still just curious how many pounds you girls gained from the new twins. Please tell me only a pound or two.

littlebit13 · 08-14-2009, 09:30 PM

With my 425's I had about 2lbs added to my weight. Whenever I step on the scale I'm like ok this minus 2lbs..ok thats about right!!!

Since the highest cc you listed was 425 at most you should gain about 2lbs

MASONS GIRL · 08-14-2009, 09:42 PM

Same here. I noticed I picked up an extra 2-3 pounds after my breast augmentation. It took me awhile to remember that my boobies gave me those extra pounds, for awhile there I was like "what the heck?" =)

want700ccs · 08-14-2009, 09:55 PM

7 lbs.....

heatkc · 08-14-2009, 10:01 PM

I guess if anything you can compare it what you used to weigh. I don't mind gaining the extra couple of pounds especially for some tata's but I was curious. Thanks ladies!

Angel123 · 08-14-2009, 10:15 PM

None, no change even a few days after surgery.

Barbara Ann · 08-14-2009, 10:25 PM

Mine weigh 1.5 lbs each.

DeniseWantsDDs · 08-14-2009, 11:34 PM

I still weigh the same, hope to lose some more!

vezousk · 08-14-2009, 11:55 PM

I read somewhere that one ounce is equal to 30cc. It is also equal to 28ish grams. If you get 425cc implants, it equates to 397 grams. There are 454 grams in one pound. Therefore you gain should be around 0.87 lb per breast.

jjgevf · 08-14-2009, 11:59 PM

Frist week or so I weighed about 7 pounds more.Now at almost 6 weeks I weigh the same.It was fluid from the surgery I guess b/c after about 2 1/2 weeks I was back down to my current weight before breast augmentation.Weird,I thought I would weigh a couple pounds more,I prepared myself for it before surgery????I guess everyone is different!

*PinkGlitter* · 08-15-2009, 01:15 AM

My boobs weigh around 3lbs...maybe a bit more!

hoobagirl · 08-15-2009, 01:22 AM

My boobs didn't add any extra weight to me, I got 300cc's and I'm pretty small.

madi.di · 08-15-2009, 04:37 AM

Pre breast augmentation I was 113lb - Day after breast augmentation 117lb!!!! But that was b/c of all the liquids. I workd hard and now I am 112 and pushing hard to get down to 105lb

So all in all I managed to loose weight although the implants have put about 2lb on me.

Here's info from the main JBI site:

If you're wondering how much breast implants weigh, use the information below to calculate the weight of various sizes of silicone and saline breast implants.
Below, you will find varying conversions, as well as how to calculate breast implant weight.

Please note: Silicone calculations and saline calculations are based upon measurements that I personally took by weighing 400cc silicone implant and a 400cc saline implant.

Silicone Breast Implant Weight
1cc weighs 0.0375 oz.
To calculate the weight of silicone implants, see the directions below.
If you have two 300cc implants then: 300cc x 2 = 600cc total
600cc x 0.0375 = 22.5oz
22.5oz divided by 16oz = 1.40625 lbs. for both implants

Saline Breast Implant Weight
If you have two 300cc saline implants then:
300cc x 2 = 600cc total
600cc divide by 29.574 (to convert to ounces) = 20.2880 ounces
20.5338 divided by 16 (ounces) = 1.268 lbs. for both implants

For me with 700s: 700x2= 1400 1400x.0375=52.5 52.5/16=3.28125

So my implants add about 3.3 lbs to my weight (or 2 lbs from my redo increase from 250 to 700). However, I would expect that the first month or so, you may have additional swelling which will add to the weight. I am one month post op now and back at my pre-breast augmentation weight. So I figure I've lost weight, lol!

Carmella · 08-15-2009, 08:34 AM

My boobs weigh about 3 pounds...and I noticed it on the scale. No big deal... totally worth it for me.

yasminv1 · 08-15-2009, 08:43 AM

My 500ccs tissue expanders weigh 2lbs. When I finally switch to 600cc silicone they will weigh about 2.5 pounds.

beadinbabe · 08-15-2009, 08:45 AM

I've noticed about 2.5 lbs... it's so worth it though!! lol

Ashley1234 · 08-15-2009, 09:57 AM

I'm sure mine weigh something but I've actually lost 2 lbs since breast augmentation 8 days ago. I guess I just have not felt like eating ... not a bad thing

trinandgabesmom · 08-15-2009, 12:28 PM

I read a formula on here that told how to calculate the actual weight of the implants. Don't recall where it's at, but I found that my silicone 550's would weigh 2.4 lbs. together. I did indeed gain that much after surgery, however, I have lost it now. Good Luck!

kitx · 08-15-2009, 03:33 PM

mine made my weight go up by 3lbs.

although you can't notice it now I have boobs! before it was flat chest and then my lil belly when I put on a few lbs...and now it's booooobs! total perk.
