I apologize if this has been asked before. I have always been very large chested even when I was thin. I cannot buy a bra in a regular store. I have to order them online and they aren't cheap. I am making due with the ones I have now because I know I will start losing weight and have to change sizes.

I don't know how much of them I am going to lose but I believe it will be a LONG time before I possibly get to a size I can buy in a regular store. I hate to spend the money on all new bras everytime I drop a couple sizes. Any suggestions on what to do so I don't spend a ton of cash on items I will probably only wear for a short time? Have anyone else had to deal with this?

Im still trying to figure this one out myself. I have lost a little over 84lbs. I started in a 42DD. Now I am in a 42D. I have not gone and gotten professionally fitted, I just went bought some and whatever fit the best is what I went with. JCPenney's does offer professional free fittings.

Before I ran out and bought some new ones, I took some of my old huge bras and some little ones from my before obese stage and wore them both at the same time. LOL I know it sounds crazy, but I would wear the big one directly on my skin to cover everything and the little one would provide the lift I would need, but it didn't have the coverage. Thankfully I now have some bras directly in the middle, that will hold, lift and cover. But that's what I did until I thought it was a blantantly obvious that I needed some undergarments.

Hi, when I started out, I was like a size 48DD. Im guessing on that number because a 46 felt tight but I absolutely refused to buy a bigger bra. Ugh! I held out as long as I could and it wasn't until my sister stuffed her fist in my bra (because of the NOTICEABLE space I had) that I realized I had to get a smaler bra. But until I could, I doubled the sides of my bra and sewed them in to get a nice tight fit and tried my best with the cups and straps as well. Now, I'm a size 42D and hopefully will be a C cup by the time I've lost all my weight. Let's hope!

I am waiting to loose more weight before buying new ones. I have some in smaller sizes I never got rid of. Some days I just wear my sports bra ( I have quite a few of them). I playing the waiting game before buying anything. I want to loose another 40-50 lbs first. Until them, I'll just keep pulling out those clothes and bras I outgrew in the last 6 years.
