Ladies have you gone down any cups sizes, since banding?



Recommended Posts

Thanks so much for posting about this...and for all the responses, as this is something I've been really curious about as I get ready to get banded.

If I could take the question one step further, I'm wondering if they do get smaller, if you've found they lose perkiness or anything like that. I don't mind so much if my D cup goes down, as much as I just hope they don't look droopy! lol. If anyone is comfortable to share their experience, I'd appreciate it.

I posted this before i was banded since then I've lost 39 lbs. 44D to about a 40D and they are looking pretty perky. Hopefully it stays this way lol

Sad to say yes, they lost perkiness. Not that I was ever blessed with perky breasts anyway, I've always had downward facing nipples. But now I dont, they face upwards, but the actual breast, I lost all the volume on the top of the breast, they are long and floppy. I have that pear shaped sort of body type, so I've gotten extremely skinny up top and retained more shape below, but my breasts need help. They look fine when I'm dressed, and they are also fine in the right bathing suite - ie. an expensive, well sewn and supportive one - so I'm not too bothered by it. The advice given to me by a plastic surgeon was that I'd need not only a lift but fair sized inmplants as well, so I'm not going to do anything. I dont want bigger breasts again, I'm happy with smaller ones.

So, yes, they do suffer but you can fix them with good results if you want to.

Although I can't really tell that my girls have lost weight, my bra sure shows it! My regular bras are getting too loose at the top and having a big gap....so I cut the tops of the cups off one so the gap doesn't show....

went from 42DD to 40C.

Hoping to go even smaller!! My girls won't be mad!! :)

I hate to say it, but they deflate :( My cup size didtn't change because the skin is still there...but ewww...lol

I went from a 44DDD to a 38DDD...almost a 36 at this point. So still geting bras at LB because I can't get a DDD at VS....they look AMAZING in clothes! So i love that...but out of them...yikes. I DEFINATELY want to have them done. I've always had a great rack...and i still want them! :)

I'm looking into having my arms done and having a breast lift/implants. I just want them full again....not flat....they COULD be worse, so i know it's not as bad as i've seen on others...but still..i like big boobs.....justsayin...ha!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
