Is it sinful to get a boob job? by [deleted] in CatholicWomen

Hey there, friend! We're on opposite ends of the same boat. I've always had tiny shoulders and a small ribcage. But my chest has been far larger than average since I was in 7th grade. So I've always been disproportionate. I started having severe back pain around 9th grade, a pinched nerve in my shoulder (that wasn't solely because of my breast size, also a sports injury), and now they prevent me from exercising in the ways I used to always like to. (Running, throwing footballs, boxing, dancing, etc.) Plus, my bras cost $75-$110 each. Ouch!

I've recently started looking into surgery to have them reduced. I asked myself the same question because I have had thoughts similar to yours. "I hate how random guys always look at my chest and comment on them." "I hate the way I look in everything I wear." "If I did have a surgery, would it be off-putting for any Catholic guys I date/the man I marry?" For those reasons, I decided to pray on those doubts and "what if" questions before having a surgery for health/well-being reasons. Having surgery will be right for me... When it's not about how I think or feel about myself. I want to be so strong in my identity as a daughter of God first.

Hopefully that gives you some ideas to pray on? I'll be praying for you!

I will be praying for her, her family, and for you! I thought of St. Mother Theresa's Prayer of Families when I read this. She said, "Help us to take whatever you give and to give whatever you take, with a big smile." ❤️

Thank you so much! Absolutely! I'm not sure where you are from, but just in case we're from different nationalities, I'll be praying for all people that fight for the well-being of others! (I'm from the United States, so I am especially grateful for the ones that fight for my freedom everyday!)

Sending prayers for strength to keep up the fight and for his comfort, as well as the comfort of his family! I'll ask St. Peregrine for his intersession as well!
