A WOMAN has shared her breast implant journey after spending over £15k and growing to hate them.
Fitness YouTuber, Keltie O'Connor, from Toronto, Canada, has always had a more athletic built – but when the 31-year-old got into bodybuilding, the social media star became so shredded, she lost her boobs.
Desperate to get in the sports advert industry, Keltie very soon realised she needed to get her boobs back.
''The one thing they always say be like 'You need more feminine curves'.
''They're kind of saying 'Get a boob job' without saying 'Get a boob job'.''
For her, it was all part of a plan – more volume in her chest would get her into national competitions, which would then get Keltie seen by big brands like Nike.

''I'll be the epitome of fitness and this is how I can launch my career,'' she remembers thinking.
Not long after, in 2013, the fitness fan found herself laying on the surgery bed and getting her new, updated breasts – however, Keltie soon realised this was not how she had imagined she'd feel like.
''It was just like bowling balls here […], what is this?''
The two balls never settled down – the Canadian sports lover waited over five years for the new implants to take up a more natural look, but to no avail.

''I hated how they stretched fabric.''
But it wasn't just the uncomfortable sensation troubling her.
As time went on, Keltie began to notice several issues with her health – she was getting spots on her face and her locks were thinning out.
Then, after some research online and watching many videos of others talk about their breast implant experience, it finally dawned upon her – the two implants were making the YouTuber sick.
Feeling more miserable than ever and desperately wanting to get rid of them, the woman saved every penny and booked countless consultations.
In January 2022, Keltie finally got them removed – and she has been so happy with the decision, she's since been trying to raise awareness about the potential dangers of a boob job.
''That is why I even want to make this. I'm not saying you won't get breast implant illness, I'm not saying you won't not.
''I'm saying it depends on the person – and we have to hear all sides of it.
''We can't just hear one narrow perspective because that is going to blind people to do surgeries they do not need.
''If you're thinking of getting implants, it's not all smooth sailing; you don't know what you're gonna get.'
Happier than ever with her 32A boobs, Keltie chuckled: ''Here are my boobs. There's none.
''That's okay – I'm so happy.
