Women Only Question

Hey guys. I was just wondering how much (on average of course) breast size goes down after surgery? I know everyone is different, but I'm just wondering what to expect. Thanks!

Unfortunately, I have already dropped a cup size and two band sizes. I wasn't that gifted in the breast department to begin with. It is very depressing. :(

I have lost a cup size after losing 120 pounds. I was a D and now I am a C. Hopefully I won't go down anymore as I am almost at my goal weight.

I have lost several band sizes at this point but not the cup size yet, I am sure as I continue to lose weight that will change too.

I went from a solid, perky, happy 40/42 D/DD (depending on the bra cut) to a TINY 32B.

The trend I've noticed since being around and watching other women's progress is those who were well-endowed before weight gain set in, they were able to keep a lot of their volume. For those of us who only had big boobs because we were fat, lose them to a much more drastic degree. I remember being a b/c cup in middle and high school before I got fat so I'm pretty sure I just wasn't meant to have big boobs at a normal weight.

I just got measured this weekend and went form a 42C to a 40C and I have so far lost 42 pounds. (sadly so close to victoria secrets 38C but not yet)!

I have lost 83lbs and several band sizes but no cup loss yet (still a D and sometimes a DD ;) ) but I still plan on losing another -40lbs...I am guessing I will eventually maybe end up in a C cup...only time will tell.

Sadly they have been the first thing to go for me. I have gone from a 42DD to a 38C in 2 months. I hope they stop shrinking now!!!

Started 42D... ended up 34B/C - happily today I am a 34 F!!! ;) Everything is fixable.. even if it's just by buying amazing bras. Maidenform makes a really great lifting and Full Filling bra - can "pump you up" about 2 cup sizes if that's your thing.

I think it does depend a lot on genetics, I was a 46F at my highest, and I'm a 34F now. I've only got a bit more left, and I'm thinking it isn't coming off there. Hopefully anyway!

You mean these two saggy piles of skin I have on my body that were once my big boobs? I always had big boobs now there gross. I was a 46DD now 40D ?, but my bra is to big and I don't want to buy another one yet.

In high school and college I was a 34C, gained weight and went up to a 38C and remained there for a long time. I gained more weight in the last 4 years and went up to a 40C/D. I have lost 37.5 pounds and now my bras are too big. I cant get in all the 38C's yet but my 40's are too big. So I think its safe to say that my band size is going down but my cup size isnt yet. I have lost about 3 inches in my chest so far. I am waiting to buy new bras so I dont have to spend so much money on them. My hubby is always asking if I think I will loose my boobs. I am hoping they just return to the 34C I wore when I was younger, they just wont be as perky!

I was the one that was saying I will never get a boob job... 60 lbs later... yeah - at min I will need a lift. BUT definitely want implants bc they have disappeared... Went from a full 42D to a 38C - almost B... and still losing (only 4 months out).

CRIES!!!

I was never blessed in that dept, well except when pregnant and nursing. I went from a 30-40B down to a 34-36 A, I'm inbetween sizes right now. I told my husband I might as well just start shopping in the training bra section lol.
