I looked at the website, and it looks kinda like the Genie Bra that I saw an info-commercial for the other day.

They look comy, but I'm afraid to try either one because I am a little saggy. I always get underwire bras, and these don't have underwire.

I actually ordered three of these. I wore them for about a week and noticed lots of back pain. I really didn't associate the pain with the bras until I quit wearing them and the back pain went away. They may be good for someone with smaller breasts, but being a 36DD they did not work for me.

They dont look like they'd be very supportive to me, an underwired bra is always going to give you a much better shape, regardless of what the advertising spiel says. There's no way you'll get the same sort of shape from a bra like that. Treat yourself to a fitting and a pretty bra you'll actually enjoy wearing, part of weight loss is not having to wear such unsexy underwear as that, they're really not going to light any fires, lol.

I agree with Jaqui. I only wear Victoria Secret bras, now. If you still need a larger bra, they come in 42 dd. But, they have the underwire most of us need. They have a new bra with this cris-cross thing between the 2 straps. It helps to lift and separate. It makes my saggy girls perk up and look nice! Those bras that are on the infomercial do look like sprots bras and are pricey, too.

This is the first time I have seen this add. It looks like a Sports Bra to me. Some of the colors are cute, but even on some of the women, you can see them sagging.

So for a new Bra,, to bad it's not going to work. I'll stick with the stores.

I purchased the Genie Bra which seems the same as the Ahh Bra except you get 6 bras instead of 3 for the same price. I purchased mine at Genie Bra Canada. It's very comfortable and works great as a sports bra. Not really a support bra but a comfort bra since you don't have to deal with hooks, underwires or straps.

The Victoria's Secret IPEX bras don't have underwire but they keep my 40Ds up nice and perky..with cleavage too!

For more casual times I use the Spanx Bralelujah (spelling might be off there)---it's kind of looks like a sports bra but it's much more comfy..you do need to keep washing it and putting it back in the dryer to keep it firm, though.

I highly recommend both!

I know 2 people that have bought them and they both think they are wonderful. You can wear 2 at the same time for additional support. If you do want to buy them do it on ebay instead of the official site as you can get them much cheaper.

Try doing a search on eBay for plus sized bras. There's some gorgeous ones available at great prices. smile.gif

For the proper fit I always have to go try on bras. I would have a hard time ordering one without trying it on first.

I go to JCPenny and try on many before I find a style or brand that fits my body the right way.

Well I just ordered genie bra, I sure hope they are worth it. I'm not to worried about the sagging because I have had a lift with implants but I do worry about them smashing me. I have had such a hard time with bras. Maybe that was TMI if so sorry

      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? 🤷‍♀️
