Do your boobs shrink in comparrison with everywhere else on your body? I'm a large chested woman...DDD cup. Will that shrink as i lose weight or will I forever be cursed with monster boobs? I'd love to hear from people who lost. Tell me if your boobs stayed the same, or shrank accordingly.

I'm completely worried about this too! My dr says expect to lose 3/4 of what I have! YIKES!!!!

My bf had pretty big boobs now.... Well long flat pancakes is hOw she describes them. she's now wearing VS Water bras:(

My dr's office has a plastic surgeon and a visit with him for a breast lift and timmy tuck was part of my consultation.

I can't imagine going through surgery again (even after a years wait) after all the pain I had from this one, but in a years time as my body changes I might change my mind as I know I'll miss my boobs!

I'd love to see the feedback u get from people a year or more out.

Good luck to you.

I was a 40D, I have been sleeved for about a year and a few weeks now... a sad 36 C and I still have more weight to loose!

I'm actually happy at the prospect of losing some of my boob size! I've always been big and it has caused a lot of problems for me! I don't love the fact that they will probably end up long and saggy. I so want to wear those cute sundresses or tank tops with built in bras! I refuse to have plastic surgery after this. everyone says the plastic surgery is worse than the sleeve procedure. I am only 6 days out from my sleeve and still uncomfortable. I'm sure I'll NEVER consider another surgery! LOL

It completely depends. I know that's not much help, but it's true.

I'm not sleeved yet, but I've had WLS. With mine I lost in the neighborhood fo 200 lbs. My cup size actually went up as my circumference went down. I do not have big boobs, but I started around a 44B and ended up a 38C.

On the flip size, my mother also had WLS (not VSG) and pre-op was a 42DD. Had been since she was 16. Now she just wears sports bras most of the time. Her boobs look like empty, wet paper bags.

By the way cab0ad, I noticed you're in KC. Who is doing your sleeve?

I think it goes to past experience. My first 20 lbs ALWAYS comes out of my boobs. I always return to my smaller bra sizes. (Well- c cups) Everyone is different though. If you came out of puberty with huge boobs, then they may stick around. Just keep em hoisted up so you don't bruise them with your knees. HAHAHAHA just kidding....a little humor..... (you may not be old enough to worry about that.

wheetsin, my sleeve was last week. I had kowalski at KC Bariatrics do it.

funny dooter! LOL. I remember having c cup sized boobs in 6th grade! Of course, I was largely overweight at that time already so i don't know if it was my weight or my actual boob size. Gosh, I'd LOVE to lose 2 or 3 cup sizes!

I suppose it depends on your age, but I am 58; and my boobs were a 40 D and now they are a 36C. They look great in a bra and I love wearing beautiful sexy bras now; and I can show a little cleavage and wear cute dresses (I even wore a strapless dress (which you can see on my about me page on my blog link below). But the honest truth is, without a bra they're pointing south! Still, clothes fit SO much better and I am so happy to not have huge fleshy boobs any more. I'm not sure they'll ever be firm but I'm doing my strength training exercises every day in hopes that will help.

A YEAR IN THE LIFE OF A SLEEVER; UPDATED EVERY SUNDAY

I'd just sent you a PM. My sleeve surgery is next week with Dr. Hoehn. He also did my lap-band in 2006, and removal last year (and gallbladder in 2007). I'm always curious to see who people in my area are using.

crop queen, mine have pointed south since I was a teenager! LOL! I don't know what it would actually be like to have them point in any other direction!

they deflate like balloons :'( I have lost only a portion of my weight and I can already tell the difference. They are nowhere near as full.

I was a 40G prior to surgery and now I am a 36G. I am only 5 pounds from my goal, so I'm guessing they are here to stay. Not to mention they must have been the only thing on my old body that wasn't FAT!

Oh well...I have always like mine. I was hoping not to lose too much.

Well I am one of those people who has always had large boobs... as a child I actually went straight into a B cup at my first bra fitting... I eventually grew into a DDD cup. I have lost some, but I still fill out a DD. My current bra (after 100 lbs) is a 36 DD (though my band size is getting loose, I know I need to go down to a 34). However, I have lost lift Which kinda sucks. I have a feeling that down the road I'll want a lift, but I don't think i'll ever need implants. I think it truly depends on the person.

I will say though, that it is soooo worth it! I would much rather have flabby boobs and a more normal body then be overweight with big boobs.

I started out somewhere between a 40g in sports bras and 40-42k in goddess everyday bras. Today I wear. 36j in everyday bras and 36g in wacoal underwire sports bras. My girls have been with me since I was 10--I missed the whole training bra stage. They aren't going anywhere.

I just got fitted for the wacoal sports bra this weekend. I pay good money to lock and load these girls.
