  1. I know I do want to get a really good sports bra by this brand with an E starting name. Heard it was good. Its 64 dollars, found a fifteen percent off coupon code. Can't remember though which website it was for. I think biggerbras.com
  2. I checked them and a few others looking fir a sports bra, but with the sale and coupon code Ill be getting four bras for fifty dollars. Can't beat that. I notice I lose band but the cup stays longer. At 200 lbs and an adult I wore 38ddd, smallest band I could remember as an adult. I can only remember needing a 42 F at 250, and now at 282 I need a 44 or 46 G, this is the same full coverage bra. Although I only need one I figure I might as well take advantage of their sale, plus I'm familiar with their bra sizing and at least I can take it into a store if they don't fit. I dunno...
  3. Thanks. I've been meaning to Google pics. I like! I feel the black coloring looks better.
  4. My only bra just broke, wire came out and have no support now, so I need one desperately. When I gain or lose my boobs did too. I just wont know the exact size. Thirty pounds ago my boobies were smaller, eighty pounds ago they were four bands smaller and two to three cups smaller. Ugh...I think Ill get two of my current size and two smaller. I don't mind cups that are too big but a band too small or big is more problematic. Right now the girls are 44/46 G/H. Ill figure it out.
  5. I forgot to add, how long did it take you to go down bra sizes and how often did you but bras?
  6. So LB has a sale and I need a bra, but don't want to buy four of the same size. The sale is buy two get two free. They don't offer much choices I like in my size so I'm limited to two styles. My question is should I buy two smaller ones or all the same size? My surgery is next month and I know my boobs will be smaller within two months.
  7. For myself its important that the artist has had experience not only on stretchmarks but African American skin.
  8. I wanted this five years ago and I still do. On the list of to dos.
  9. Anyone had tattoos done over their stretchmarks? Did it look better before or after?
  10. Hi. I want to know about your extra skin and has it tightened up at all? Especially for women who lost over one hundred pounds.
  11. For people who had a date but wanted an earlier date, did they call you or you had to keep on top of them? How many of you were able to get an earlier date?
  12. It varies by manufacturer. Having had from size D to H all my adult lifeand various brands I noticed its different. Whats important for me is either trying it on or buying one size larger if I need a new bra that Im not familiar with. Either way it doesnt matter to me since by next year Ill be a C or D.
  13. I planned on telling them of it. I guess I wont know about their leave policy as yet.
  14. How long did you stay home before feeling well enough to return to work?
  15. Looks like I got a new job. I have to get medically checked out, plus psych eval. So, not sure of all the details but I think training will start three weeks before surgery. Nothing will stop my surgery, I just would like to keep the job. Share your experiences?
  16. Mines were never perky, and my insurance pays for a lift so that is definitely going to take place. Lol kittens playing with boobs. ddd is an E, it really depends on manufacturers sizing chart. I wear an H in LB sizes.
  17. You have six months to do or you need your sixth month notes from the doctor?
  18. I'm from Brooklyn. I just wanted to come and and say hello.
  19. Luckily I have from size 14 to 24/26 My current size. I at least have an idea at what weight what clothing size will be so I can at least tell myself that once I am at 195 lbs. I can start buying new clothes, which is almost 100 away. I usually buy inexpensive clothes, especially since surgery is soon. I intend on staying in my 1x until I'm a small xl, and buy tops every two sizes or more. I feel its the pants that tend to look a little sloppy when they are too big, but if I do go to school this semester than I will be forced to look half way decent. I can get jeans for $10 on sale so I can afford to buy some jeans in sizes 12, 10, 8. Once I get near to my size goal thats when I intend on paying a bit more for some super trendy clothes.
  20. Yes. Lol to Pdxman's fire comment.
  21. I see you have the same doctor as I. What happened in regards of the insurance. I had health plus, then they joined with amerigroup about a month ago. How long did it take them to approve your surgery from the date you handed it/faxed it to Jessie?
