I can't believe this!



Recommended Posts

In December, I had reached my goal weight so I treated myself to a bra fitting & 4 new Victoria Secrets bras. I needed them as I was wearing a 42DD...new size was 36D. I thought I was good to go and wouldn't get any smaller in that area. WRONG! The past few weeks I noticed my bras were getting too big. A bit disappointing to say the least. But nonetheless, I need good fitting bras so I go back to VS today for another fitting.

OMG! I am now a 34B!!! What? I was a 36C in high school...I simply can't believe this! I wanted to keep my girls & I thought since I had made it to goal and only went down one cup size that I would be okay. I'm a bit shocked & upset. At least in my new bras, they look pretty good. :001_rolleyes:

LOL Such a terrible issue to have, huh?? : )

I was hoping that I would lose a little there to stay in proportion with the rest of the body as it shrinks. Only recently have I begun to notice any change beyond less back fat. I had a lift in 2007, so they are fairly solid, not like they were post baby. lol

I will see what happens but am hoping to avoid another surgery. Not so concerned about a smaller size, just don't want saggy : )

Really large chests run in my family and even when I was trim and fit in high school I was never smaller than a C cup. Even though I've talked about how I wouldn't mind having a small chest I must admit that it would be disconcerting to find myself on the "other side" of the breast size divide, lol.

I experienced the same issue. I was holding steady at a nice 36C then I lost another 10-15lbs, and they shrunk down to a small 34B. I hate it, I really can't wait to get a boob job. If it weren't for fabulous push up bras, I'd never leave the house ha ha ha.

The smallest cup size I ever remember being since acquiring and boobage at all is a C cup in school. That's why I am so shocked that I've gone down so much. And it's not just the size...I told my dh that if it wasnt' for all the saggy skin, I'd probably be a negative cup size! :lol0: The girls definitely need some help, but I don't think I'll be able to every get a boob job.

The Victoria Secret bras do wonders for my "little girls" though. At least they are worth the $$$$. I just wish I could wear my pjs and swim suit & have them look as good. Let's don't even talk about what they look like nude!:)

I guess the bright side is that I'm down to a healthy weight & feeling much better...the boob issue is a "small one"...pun intended. :blush:

I've noticed that although I'm pretty much holding steady weight wise, things still seem to be shifting. For me this is mostly a good thing because things are redistributing so I look more normal, but I'm already down to a 34C, so I hope that everything stays the same there:-)

I'm sorry but that is one area i really hate so losing the gals is a BIG plus for me! I went from 58FF to 40D so far. . . lets keep on losing those puppies! I really don't like boobs! Sorry, just venting!

I love the idea of going to Victoria's Secret to treat yourself! I have always had big boobs too (44H before surgery), and I'm not far enough along to have lost that much yet. I was tempted to start worrying about losing my boobs, but I'm not gonna do it.

Sexy is more in my mind than it is in my cup size. I've seen a LOT of sexy woman that don't have big cups. I think I'll start now to think of my upcoming smaller boobs & body as "athletic and fit". I bet my back will feel better, and when I drop food, it won't hit my "shelf", but instead actually fall on my lap! :001_wub:

I probably won't be able to afford surgery either, so I'm definately going to invest in sexy bras!!!!

I'm down from a 40DD to a 34C and that just to hold all of the skin. ugh! Even when I was in high school they were bigger than this. I swore I'd never have another surgery but I'm having to rethink that.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
