Breat Size



Recommended Posts

Okay so I am 20 years old, 249 lbs, and 44 DD. I am getting banded february 25, 2010.

I was just curious whats going to happen to my breasts after I lose all my weight. I like having large breasts, I just dont want to have saggy breasts or lose all the weight and my breasts totally shrink.

Do yall know from experience?

Thanks

It kind of depends why they are big. Some people will always have big breasts even when they're tiny everywhere else and others are only a DD because they're carrying way too much fat there, just like everywhere else on their body.

I shrunk to a 12D from an 18E or so, but I guess I like smaller breasts. At 5ft 10, a D on me is quite "small", my bustline is not something you'd really notice about me. I like that clothes hang well, I like that I fit in bikini tops and I like that a lot of the awful sag I had is actually gone. My boobs have been through six years of feeding babies and a large weight loss, so they're not exactly pert, but my nipples now actually face forward and not down. I like the thin, small breasted look so for me, shrinking was a change to Celebrate.

i am going to be excited for when that happens to me!

Ya I am okay with them shrinking some. I want my top to be proportionate to the rest of my body. I just dont want to feel the need to get any augmentations, lift or enlargement.

i think losing the weight will make me more confident and hopefully i wont be concerned about that.

thanks!

I lost 9.5 inches from my bust in about 50 lbs. For a while I felt super saggy and was really unhappy. They just don't seem so droopy anymore, I don't know if it was the skin adjusting or what, but they're better. Of course, 100 more lbs and who knows what they'll look like! Don't get discouraged if you don't love the way things look while your body is changing. Think of it as contents settling during the journey.

So far I have gone from a 48DD to a 42C. I am not real happy about it. My breast are saggy and when I lay down they go to my sides! UGH! When I am closer to my goal I think I will have either a lift or augmentation. At least that is what my husband and I think....um....

I think everyone is different, but your age may have a little to do with the sagginess. I started at 44DDD now I am a 40G. My actual breasts didn't go down, but the band size did, but the cup size went up.

dont forget to exfoliate and moisturise yourself. also, get properly fitted for bras now, and also when you notice your boobs arent fitting in your bra anymore. keep them hoiked up nice and high.sports bras are good for this.. bad bras can stretch the fibres underneath the skin =saggy boobs.

My breast size also didn't go down, but my band size did. I went from a 48DDD to a 32 F. Very weird. My boobs are a bit saggy and I prob will get a lift at some point.

I'm with crzytchr and kkarryall...I've only lost 60 pounds but I've gone from a 44DD to a 40G or H depending on the style of the bra. However, I was a D cup in middle school, so I knew mine wouldn't go anywhere. Mine have never been perky, and I know they won't be when I lose 80-some more pounds, so I expect to have a reduction and lift when I am at goal. I want to be proportionate.

Howdy! I thought I was the only one having "issues" with my breasts. I was told that when you lose a significant amount of weight (50+ lbs), you will really notice a decrease in your bustline. I've lost almost 70lbs since 6/8/09 and have gone from a 44D to a 40DD. I was seriously concerned what size my breasts would be if I lost another 75lbs! :rolleyes2: I'm hoping to end up around a 36-38D and around 175lbs. I'm almost 5'10 w/ a broad build. I think I will look great at this size! Sorry, if that sounds a bit stuck on myself, but I am really working to see myself in a more positive light.

PS~ I had a NSV 2 days ago. I had to get a guard for my ring. I almost threw it away while washing my hands after using the restroom at a restaurant. :thumbup:

The smallest I have ever been is 34 DD and the largest is 38 DDD last year when I had my surgery. I am currently a 36 DD - I'm okay with it. I think, at least for me, I tend to lose weight in my face and boobs, rib cage area, upper body fastest so I guess it depends on your body type. Whatever, I don't care...just want to lose it. If I need new ones or some reshaping I will deal with it later. :-0 Good luck and hang in there!

      Four days post surgery. I am sipping as fast as I can and getting NO WHERE near the goal of 60 - 80 grams of protein or the 64 oz of liquids. I just feel FULL. I don't know if it can still be the gas build up (I would think by now that would be gone) but it is a struggle to drink. And so far I have not had the nausea or spasms and don't want to wander into that territory by pushing too hard with liquids. I about passed out today as it was my most "strenuous" day. Went from second story to basement for shower and I was sure I was going to pass out. Looking back on my last few days I have had a total of less than 1000 calories. Am I just not getting enough nourishment in me? Once again a friday where I can't get ahold of the doc until Monday rolls back around so I am hoping maybe someone here has some experience on how to keep energy going. I do have fibromyalgia too and that may be where some added fatigue comes into play. How did you all fair with the goals the week after surgery?

      2 days until I fly out to San Diego to have my Bypass Surg. in Tiajuana Mexico. Not gonna lie, the nerves are starting to surface. I don't fear the surgery itself, or the fact that I'm traveling alone, but its the aftermath that I'm stressing about the most, after this 8 week wait. I'm excited to finally be here, but I am really dreading the post surgical chapter. I know its going to be tough, real tough and I think I'm just in my head to much now that the day i here. Wish me luck, Hopefully I'm one of the lucky ones, and everything goes smoothly. Cant wait to give an exciting update,. If there is anyone else have a June bypass or even a recent one, Id love to have someone to compare war stories with. Also, anyone near San Antonio Tx? See ya soon with the future me. 💜

      2. Selina333

        I'm in Houston so kind of near you and had the sleeve in Dec. Down 61 lbs. Feeling better. Was definitely worth it. I hope the everything is going well for you. Update us when you can!

        I am back home after my bypass surgery in Tiajuana. I'm post op day 4. Everything went great! I guess I'm one of the lucky ones who have not encountered much pain at all, no nausea thus far and I'm having no problem keeping down broths and water. Thank you for your well wishes. I cant wait to keep up this journey and have a chance at better health and simply better quality of life. I know there will be bumps in the road ahead, and everything won't be peaches and cream, but at least I have a great start so far. 😍

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

        I'm so happy for you! You are about to change your life. I was so glad to get the sleeve done in Dec. I didn't have feelings of regret overall. And I'm down almost 60 lbs. I do feel a little sad at restaurants. I can barely eat half a kid's meal. I get adults meals often because kid ones don't have the same offerings at times. Then I feel obligated to eat on that until it's gone and that can be days. So the restaurant thing isn't great for me. All the rest is fine by me! I love feeling full with very little. I do wish I could drink when eating. And will sip at the end. Just a strong habit to stop. But I'm working on it! You will do fine! Just keep focused on your desire to be different. Not better or worse. But different. I am happy both ways but my low back doesn't like me that heavy. So I listened (also my feet!). LOL! Update us on your journey! I'm not far from you. I'm in Houston. Good luck and I hope it all goes smoothly! Would love to see pics of the town you go to for this. I've never been there. Neat you will be traveling for this! Enjoy the journey. Take it one day at a time. Sometimes a few hours at a time. Follow all recommendations as best you can. 💗

      2. Doughgurl

        Thank you so much for your well wishes. I am hoping that everything goes easy for me as well. We don't eat out much as it is, so it wont be too bad in that department. Thankfully. Also, I hear you regarding your back and feet!! I'd like to add knees to the list. Killing me as we speak! I'm only 5' so the weight has to go. Too short to carry all this weight. Menopause really did a doosey on me. (😶lol) My daughter also lives in Houston. with her Husband and my 5 grand-littles. I grew up in Beaumont, so I know Houston well, I will be sure to keep in touch and update you on my journey. I may need some advice in the future, or just motivation. Thank You so much for reaching out, I was hoping to connect with someone in the community. I really appreciate it. 💜
