rice test

Post by abbie on 19th April 2010, 12:52 am

I made up some rice boobies today using 360g of rice. They were Massive. I looked fat, not sexy with them. I reduced it to 300g and it looked much better.
Does this mean I should get smaller implants.
Im sure the 360s the surgeon got me to try on didnt look as massive as that. I dont want to end up with whopping great big hooters.

i have now tried freezer bags with 360ml of water in. That looked much better in a bra. Still big, but nice. Balanced out my hips nicely.
Is water a more accurate guide than rice?

you get a old pair of tights or stockings, then you measure out the amount of CC of your implant, in grams, of rice into the foot of the stocking, then tie it up and cut it off. You then stuff it in a bra of the size you think youll be.

It looked enormous though. I dont want to be as big as it looked, thats why im asking if its an accurate guide.

So if your having 300cc you put 300grams of rice? Is that how it works? What size are you going for?

Ok I'm gonna try it tonight, bit late to change my implant now but at least it'll give
me an idea. Tried the implant in surgeons room but it's hard to tell with one tshirt. Thanks for clearing that up! :-)

Don't do it in grams ladies. The implants are filled by volume not weight so you have to match that. You should measure the rice or whatever in a measuring jug. 360g of rice is much more than 360ml or 360cc which is why they would have looked so much bigger than the implants you tried hun x

Yes it is - I will be having 410, 460 or 515!! And am sitting here with 410's in feeling like Linda Lusardi!!

Gotta nip out in a mo to take one of my daughters to a Maths Club but when back I will foray into the rice boobies again and report back!!

Maybe the 515's won't seem HuuuGE now, lol!!

I found my rice boobs were bigger than I ended up. I dont think they are very accurate, but they give you an idea of what bigger boobs will look like under clothes

It seems so weird seeing myself with big boobs. The only time ive had big boobs is when pregnant or breastfeeding, but i was obviously a lot bigger all over then, so they didnt look as big as the cup size sounds

I really don't think its accurate to tell you the truth. When I measured out the 350mL of rice and tried that on it was a lot bigger than the 350cc saline sizers I bought online. I put one of each in, and the rice boob looked bigger than the saline sizer!

They're soft and cushy too! So glad I got them as the rice boobs were huge and awkward.. worried me a bit! These feel natural and take on a much better shape :)

I agree with you fawn, I am afraid to hug anyone if I have my rice boobs in as I may hurt the person I am hugging!!
They also kinda make my nipples a bit sore. Gotta wear them though as it will get everyone accustomed to the bigger me before op day!!

Lynnie 1ml is the British equivalent to 1cc (US measurement) and 1ml of silicone weighs 1g of silicone. So a 360cc implant is the same as a 360ml or 360g rice boob.

Bear in mind through that rice is heavier than silicone so you may end up with a smaller implant but its the same weight.
