Im due to have my ba in a few weeks,so i thought i would try it?,and its really great!! you measure the amount you have been given for the implant in rice on normal kitchen scales,then put them in a stocking or cut off tight legs,let it fall into an implant shape and tie it up tight!,then you put it in your sports bra!!,gives you a really good idea of how it will feel,and the extra weight you will carry,also looks very sexy when your picking up your kiddies from school..(which i just did) LOL ...the looks hehehe!,very funny experience...hey they have to get used to it.
try it,it really good!.

""

going to town this mornong to buy a bra and rice, cnt wait to try it out hehehe

yep thats how you do it!!,showed my mum yesterday,she nearly fainted!LOL.
good luck!

Thanks for that Shani!

I was about to ask in a new post how the rice test is actually done.

Was this method recommended to you by your surgeon?

Does it give the impression of what they'll look like?

Is it easy to do (rice test)?

Thanks x

yes the surgeon mentioned it as a good idea,i had allready seen it on a tv programe,its good as the rice is quite plyable,it molds,just put it in the bra that your taking to the hospital,the size you asked for.
ive had mine in all day!!LOL
shanixx

He he!

Thanks hun!

Thanks for the info.

One more question. What is the equivalence in cup size and CC?

not sure to be honest,just know im going from small c to dd+ and im having 350.depends on height and weight,have you had a consult?.
shani xx

I'm due for 2 consults in a couple of weeks.

One with Mybreast - London clinic and Transform - London clinic.

Will ask then.

Thanks for your help!

i have rice, i have tights and bought some bra's to try the rice test.
any particular way of measuring the cc's? or just fill til the bra is full?

XXshani

soz to be thick, 350 grams?

yes thats the same size as mine!! LOL wot a difference!!

here i am, typing to you, wearing a 32C bra with 350 grams of rice in stockings to fill it out, its amazing!!
Boyfriend just said they would look whopping so i replied i will probs just got for 300cc's, but he wants whoppers haha
made my eve!xx

bet you go for bigger?,the longer i think about it the bigger i get(in my mind!),i was going for 325,but as its under the muscle apparently some of it is hidden so i thought i would go for 350,i would hate to be to small after all that moneeeey!,the good thing is with the rice boobs is you can just run warm water over them the tights work as a sieve and it gets all the starch out so theyr ready to cook!LOL!xx

I've got my rice bags in today and it's great to feel the weight and see what I'll look like (dressed) after. I'm going to keep them in until my op now, maybe it'll help! I'm only having 230, but it'll take me to a C so I'm happy with that!

hey I,m a newbie to this site although have been reading other post for a while now, was wondering what size frame you are to be having 230 implants? i,m a 6/8 5ft 3, I have my opp booked for the end of april. I was advised by my surgeon to have no bigger than 250-270 which will take me to a C cup. After reading post from this site it seems most people are having alot bigger, just worrying i suppose!!
Can't believe i,ve actually booked it!!!!

lily

im 5 foot 3 and size 10 im having 325/350,so yours sounds about right??,you dont wanna fall on your face!LOL.
yes im still in shock ive booked,but cant go back now,new boobies for the summer!!....you go girl!!
xxshani

its a really good idea isnt it?,as it gets you used to the weight and,the looks,have you been out with them yet?,the school yard was the best for me....ding dong! LOL, xx
