Are My Books Going To Get Super Small?!



Recommended Posts

Ok, do a friend of mine freaked me out this weekend and asked me what my husband will think when I lose the books. I responded to her that I wasn't expecting to lose them. She shared that she had a friend who went through the surgery and they went down dramatically. Listen, I want them to.be smaller but I certainly.want to remain very curve. What has everyone else experienced?

You are worried about your boobs, but overall you want them to be proportionate to the rest of of your body. I have lost girth, but started with a 40DD and am know wearing a 34DD. The breasts are there, (also post menopausal) so they are not perky anymore, but in clothes of course they still look proportionate. I would say they are like giant skin tags, but look great rolled up into a good bra. I used to be a 40DD wide and now am a 34DD long.. :-)

I highly doubt I will lose my boobs. Even when I was skinny size 8 I had DDD breast. Women in my family are very busty naturally. When I lose weight my boobs don't shrink. I do know of some people who gained weight and their breast got larger but as soon as they lose the weight they shrink but I think those are people who were a A and B cup when they were smaller. My breast have never been smaller than a DD so I doubt that these girls are going anywhere. I currently wear a size 36K and this is in the new bra sizing where bras that used to be a size B are now considered a D. My boobs hopefully will shrink back down to a DDD or i.

I was an A cup before falling pregnant and getting fat, was fat for 6 years, first thing to go we're the boobs. I am now down from a C cup, back to an A. They are saggy and deflated. My boobs were obviously 100% fat. Everybody says "wow, look how much weight you've lost... Where did your boobs go?"

I believe you do loose some boob. If you were a 40dd and now your a 34dd, you lost some boob size. Everytime your band gets bigger or smaller, your cup gets bigger or larger with it. A 48A bra would have a way larger cup then a 38A bra. Yeah, i admit, i dont want to loose what little i have, but I'd rather wear a padded bra instead a size 18 skirt. Thats just me.

After 50+ pounds, mine are definitely getting smaller but that's okay with me. It's been so long since I've been even an average size but I think I was a C in high school when I was active. Now I'm a DDD, but that's going down.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
