BOOBS

[allthatjazz4u 204]

Most websites have a "how to measure" section. Typically you use the size around your lower chest (where the bra circles you) then measure at your fullest point. If I remember right each inch is a different cup size but I'm not 100% on that.

It's worth treating yourself to a fitting at a place like Nordstroms. While they are expensive' date=' the value of one good bra is pretty amazing in your life.[/quote']

I agree with iggy! It's a MUST to get a good fitting. I have had big boobs since I was 9!!! I use to buy bras only at Nordstroms. Then u found a speciality boutique that carries the same brand as Nordstroms. Pre surgery(11/14/12) I was a size 46HH ...now I'm a 40N. My cup size actually increased, but my band size went down. I will never but bras from plus sized stores(lane Bryant, avenue ...etc) I rather spend the money and INVEST in good supportive bras that don't make me took like I have torpedo tits.. :-) lol and the only way to get a good fitting bra is to be properly fitted by a bra specialist

teen years 145lbs 34 DD

before surgery 42H

90 lbs down I am either a 40DDD because they are easier to find more like a 38 G

See, I was a A-B in high school. Now there is just a lot of skin hanging about that looks just fine in a proper bra. I will never have the money to have them fixed on my own dime anyway. Actually, I don't want a knife anywhere NEAR there. Shudder!

I come from a long line of big boobed big hipped women. At my smallest I was a 36DDD. I was a 42F... Currently I'm hanging out at a 38G. Yay for bigger boobs- where's that sarcastic font when you need it? I've had and nursed 2 kiddos. We are hoping to try again in 2 years but after that- I will definitely be looking into a lift.

Iggy your a freaking trip!!

I don't have a. Notdstroms, it's either jcp or sears and they don't make em big enough. I used to buy from a mastectomy shop but by age 22 after wearing granny bras that cost $70 through my teenage years, I found lane Bryant and felt like a woman with real breast. I'm going to measure this weekend I'm just cheap and don't want to spend money on something that won't last. Lol ill get over it!

I use to do competitive clogging as a girl/teen and my dad would always come to me and tell me to freshen my makeup because I had black eyes! Lol My mom and sister are both my height, 110, and perfect perky C's. b*****s! Lol I am 4'10 and just hope they continue shrinking so my high school nickname doesn't come back to haunt me...Weebel! even if I fall I don't have far to go! Hehe

LOL wanna know what my high school nick name was? Wait for it....

My last name started with "Tich" so I was called Tish for many years, but at one drunken kegger (that i was attending as a guest being I was underage and never touched a drop til it was legal....LMAO OK not!) ummm anyhoo, BS (initials of the boy) was a bit drunker than the others and saw me and yelled "Hey T I T S" and a nickname was born!

This stuff never happens to a cup girls

Oh I so feel you! I'm 4'11. My high school boyfriend told me I was lucky to have a big booty so I didn't fall forward.

[sleeve_sister 110]

Lmao! My girlfriend calls me tits! My son was about fourish and he was holding both our hands walking into a restraunt and tells the waiter and everyone sitting around us, "these are my rainbow mommies, she's sleezball (my friend) and she's tits (me)!" Lmao I wanted to strangle both of them!

I had a fiancé that passed away in a motorcycle accident and I was sitting around with his friends one night reminiscing and they were telling me the story of when Dave told his friends about me. Yeah, the only discription they got was, "her tits are huge!" Lol it's true they don't know what we look like from the neck up!

Oh the stories! Lol one of my senior gag gifts was duck tape with a label that said, "this is not for your mouth! Put a leash on them puppies!" Lol fortunately I'm not offended by the jokes I just tell them to shut up before they get knocked out and not with my fists! Hehe

[ashelaine 382]

My boyfriend tells me I have converted him to the 'dark side'- he's a total boob man now.y nickname at one point was tits McGee. Oh good times . At least they still look great in a bra! I'm pretty anti lane Bryant bras- but their new French something or other bra is pretty awesome. It fit better than most of the ones I have tried at Nordstrom and the specialty bra shop

Sigh...I am going to need some MAJOR work at the end of this journey. My breasts are history. At my heaviest, I was a 46DDD. 70 pounds lighter, I am approximately a 40DD. They are ok in a bra...barely ok. I am amazed at the transformation.

[Katie713 423]

I'm another shorty at 4'11" with a decent set of "girls" at my highest weight of 280 I was a 42H and at 175 I'm at 38DDD, so still big chested and have been since I was 13. Went straight from a training bra to a C cup when I started junior high. I was always petite and busty. They aren't nearly as firm but they look good in a nice supportive bra. There may come a day when I opt for a lift but for now its wait and see and I'm so used to them I'm just fine, but being so short when I was really heavy I was such a wide load, and everyone keeps telling me now how little I seem, back on my way to petite.

I am in love with chantelle bras right now. The prettiest and most supportive I've owned (Nordstroms). I think they were about $88 or so but worth every penny. I had purchased them when I was at my heaviest and loved them so when I lost a chunk and finally had to buy some new ones recently I went ahead and got two of those, one dark, one light, to wear until I need to change again...I'm not sure I'll get much smaller but I think I could go down a bit more. They're great support without being "bullet" shaped. They are underwire, which I prefer, but not uncomfortable. My only complaint about them is that they have a cute label in the back made of metal with their name on it. It's not large...but large enough to set off airport security LOL I forgot about that recently when I had to fly commercial and ended up in the bathroom with a nail clipper to remove the silly things prior to going through security. I'm tired of the full body search LOL

[Katie713 423]

I think I'll head to Nordstrom's soon and try the Chantelle iggy. I've got every reason to go out and splurge on something I can really use anyway!! Who knows maybe I'll be ready to move down to a 36. Obviously they carry the larger cup sizes, so I'm stoked.

It's so strange to me to see the dramatic changes of women's breast during weight loss/gain. Mine NEVER EVER change.

I'm really thinking I'm a freak. They didn't get bigger as I got heavier. They never changed when I was pregnant with my daughter 3 yrs ago. But sadly I couldn't nurse either.

But yeah to be my size and have a B cup is pretty funny. It's very hard to find bras that fit me.

You may be like my sister. She doesn't have fatty tissue in her breasts. She has muscular tissue and she says they are firm and they don't get bigger or sag or anything. I never knew this until recently... I have fatty tissue in mine, for sure.. And they are saggy... I really really hope to have implants after I lose weight. (I'm pre-surgery)

I just went to Victoria's Secret and they fit me! She did an amazing job I was very impressed! They are expensive in there but me and my sister hit a sale!
