Bra Recommendation



Recommended Posts

After watching the infomercial, I saw Genie bras at my local Kmart and bought two to try. They were about $20 for 2.

They are great. They are comfortable, smooth out my back fat and make my boobs look good.

Plus it ends the morning hunt for a bra that fits. It was getting very difficult trying to find one that would fit since my old "normals" looked half full now that my boobs have shrunk. :)

I've seen the bras sold on TV, and I think Kohl's sells them too. They are worth a try. I'll be buying more at least until I reach goal.

I saw these on QVC the other day and they looked good. I was thrown by the "step into" part. I'm glad that someone here has tried them! :)

I have been wearing these the entire time I have been losing weight. The "Aah" Bra or Genie Bra (BTW, same bra - different infomercials targeted at different age consumers) have been lifesavers as my breasts have been changing shape throughout the last 9 1/2 months. You don't have to step into them - you can easily pull them over your head.

Thanks for posting this. I saw these at wal-mart but read consumer reviews online and decided not to try them but now I'm gonna go get some this afternoon. I can't afford to keep buying bras every 6 weeks. lol. Thanks again.

Awesome :) I was wondering about these... I have been sticking with the 10 buck cheap bra's from walmart... and I only have one at the moment... so I have to wash it a lot lol.

May I ask you how much you paid at kmart? They seem expensive online since you can't buy them in singles.

Oh hell guys. My Mom bought these for me and they are unsupportive as a mofo. They are like a really flimsy sports bra. Stay away!

I have an Aahh Bra and it's ok. I don't think it's really great for work or anything, but it's a really nice comfy lounging bra. It's a little high for just a lounging bra. I really don't yay or nay for recommendation, I just know it's not too bad.

I don't hate it, and I don't particularly love it either.

OK never mind LOL. Even though I have lost in the boob area I'm still a 38DD or 38D depending on the bra so I need some support. Since I only have about 20 lbs to goal I probably won't lose too much more there and don't want to spend even 20 bucks on something I can't use. Thanks for the additional comments.

I got some Dr. Rey's bra's on sale at Sears a couple of weeks ago, and I'm in love. They make my boobies (that have lost all of their umph) look delicious. that Genie bra doesn't do a durn thing for me and my girls.

They are supportive enough for me, but I am on the smaller size for boobs especially since my weight loss. Did you use the insert, SouthernSleever?

I was a 40 D and used band extenders to make that fit me before I lost weight. My band size is now a 32, and I am only about halfway to goal, so I do not want to buy a bunch of bras. I'm not sure what my cup size is now, but it is probably still a C or D.

I paid $19.99 for two at Kmart. This was the price I saw them at Kohl's for as well. There is a pad thing that you stick into the cup that gives them more support and does a great job of hiding my rather large nipples.

I haven't noticed that they aren't good for support. I teach for a living, so I don't do a lot of bouncing anyway. I have worn it to play some dance games with my kids and haven't had a problem. I bought a large, which is what I am wearing in shirts. It pulls over my head. Sometimes though it rolls up in the back, and I need my hubby to help me unroll it.

My breasts are strange anyway, in my opinion. They don't meet in the center. I have a gap between them that is more than an inch apart. This bra has done the best job of giving me a more normal-looking cleavage.

And more than anything, I like how it smooths out my back fat. ;-)

LindaS, I'm glad the Genie bras work for you. I tried the Ahh, bra and they went back faster than you can say send back. They simply did not fit my boobs. Not a good look or any support whatsoever.

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.

      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!!
