I've lost over a hundred pounds and my boobs have been the sacrificial thing. I went from a DDD to a saggy C. Ew! Fine in a good bra, but a basic disaster otherwise.

Oh, I'm so glad you asked this question! My girls are way too big at DD (I'm only 5' 1"). My doctor and I have already discussed that some surgery will be necessary at a later date. I figure I'll have to have a reduction and a lift, and my goal is to get down to a C whether through weight loss, surgery, or both. :)

I was a 42 C 87lbs ago..now I am a 38 D (who knew that after being measured properly, I was wearing the wrong cup size) So the circumference around my body has decreased and yes they are defalted but they are there and with a really good push up they look fine. I could care less, I suppose and if my husband doesn't like them, he could always go find him a perkier pair. I was teasing him once (he likes chunky chicks but I chose this for myself, my health and our fertility) that if he wanted a big girl that it was cool with me because I would be young, skinny and even hotter so my options would be wide open. Thank God we love each like crazy and he is mad proud of me.

Cliche or not but don't you love someone who loves you "through thick and thin"?

As soon as I lost a few pounds I noticed the cups were getting too big in my current bras. And of course my husbands first response was, "I knew that would happen!" :rolleyes:

Right now I'm still using the bras I had because I dont want to go buy more if they go down another size. But I could safely say I've went down a cup size after 40 lbs lost. But starting at a DDD and going down is somewhat of a relief.

I'm just at the 3rd month mark and I'm hoping my girls shrink!! Of course the bf doesn't want them too! I would like to get back to a full C but I'm thinking a lift is in order ;)

Well, over the last 10 yrs I have gained 100lbs.... and the girls went from a perky 34C to a not so perky 38DDD.. I am assuming they will deflate and a boob job will be in order.. one step at a time :)

I started at a 46F, and am now down to a 32D (almost to a C). They are definitely saggy and deflated! But since I've gotten below 130, though they continue to shrink, they're starting to shrink UP a little now, and look a tad bit better. I could still really use a breast lift at some point though.

In 3 1/2 months my "girls" have gone from a 46DDD to a 42D and are still shrinking! I haven't been a D cup since high school (15 yrs. ago)!

Hello ladies,

Hope this question is not too intrusive, but I gotta at least ask. Maybe someone will be brave and answer B)

Got a question about "the girls." Just wondering if they will shrink. I have tried many, many diets over the years, of course never losing enough significant weight for the girls to shrink.

I am only looking to drop maybe one cup size. Just wondering what has been some of your experiences ?

Thanks, T

Mine shrunk significantly. I was 42-44 dd, I am now 36 d. I have been measured as 34 c or d, but find I prefer my underwire 36 d brs, so even buy new at same size. It was excitiing for me to go to Victoria Secret to purchase them. I haev lost 100 lbs, but noticed the size change start at about 30 lbs. Good luck, Karen (kll724)

PS: I have worn good bras from Victoria Secret since starting to loose weight, I had gotten 3 for Christmas in 2009. I wore them all for 9 months, until they were way big, them gave them to Salvation Army as a donation. I didn't feel too bad about that as I got a lot of wear out of them.

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
