I, at my largest (305) was a 44DD. I now, at my smallest (165-15 from goal) am in a 36B. Now if you took the access skin away, it would probably be an A. Not pretty. No perk. I lifted weights the whole time. Good bras. No luck. So lift/Aug probably next year ... that's if they dont suck up inside of me first lol

I was a 40g pre-surgery. I'm 3.5 months out and a 38g. I come from a long line of big boobed women- I was a DD in 6th grade (when I was still of normal size!!). I have breastfed two kiddos and I will breastfeed a third one eventually. So- I will wait for that to be done and I will definitely need some work done :)

I know what you mean! I was born with boobs I believe. In the 5th grade I wore a 34D and hated it :-) I have lost 43lbs so far and still where the same 40G. All the females and some of the males are all big breasted lol. After all my weightloss I hope to get a reduction as well because of the back pain. My DH says Im gonna be a stick with boobs.

Hahahah, this is a funny and timely topic!! Today I went out and bought some new bras because my 44DD's just didn't fit, no matter how I tried. The new ones are 40D's.

I told my husband before I had the surgery that I didn't want to look like a Sharpei (those wrinkly wrinkly dogs) or have my breasts look like the ears of a Bassett Hound. I'm a dog person. He's more than happy to pay for me to have whatever tucks, nips, lifts, reductions, whatever I want after I have stopped losing.

At almost 60 years old, I chuckle at the thought of being 'perky' again!!

At least there will be a guaranteed amount you won't lose!

I had breast implants when I reached a goal weight of 170 4 years ago. Then I was 38 dd. (w implants) now I am a 42E. I hope mine shrink a bit but stay up. Otherwise I will be getting them redone.

Always been busty. Had a reduction at 17 to go from 36g to 36c. Gained weight and got to 40ddd. But when I lost weight I never got smaller then 36 full c to 36 small d. DH is a boob man. So I hope they don't end up looking like eggs on a nail....

When the boobie fairy made her rounds she skipped my house so I've never had much in that department and they're certainly not looking better as I lose weight. There will definitely be some surgical intervention in that area once I'm in goal weight territory.

I'm the weird one. I'm 30 days post op and have lost 30 lbs as of today. I was thin in the 6th grade and a D cup...when the girls started popping out they just kept on getting bigger lol. I'm on the last hooks so I've lost inches, but I'm busting out of my cups! WTH!

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
