I was gonna say WTH you complaining about I lost my Chi Chi's - I went from a 42DD to a 36B and I'm mad about it! LOL

I can say that the regular stores especially Victoria Secrets run small because there I wear a 36C if not D depending on the cut of the bra!

Are you sure you were wearing the correct bra/cup size before?

I am absolutely sure I was a D, and that had a little room inside of it. But now they look like they did when I was lactating. I'm floored!!

Bra sizes are determined by the size of your back and bust. Sounds like the back got smaller and the busts remained therefore giving you the larger cup size. You look great!

The same happened to me I was a 44DDD before surgery I've lost 90lbs now I'm a 38H. I asked and it's because our back size is going down and we aren't loosing any weight in our busy they stuck out more so a bigger cup is needed. I went bra shopping yesterday and tried on smaller cup sizes in a 38 and none of them for. Strange theory but no your not alone lol

I think the cup size is actually the difference in the measurement around the smaller band and the measurement around the fullest part so a 44D would not look the same as a 34D. There are bra calculators out there and you do your measurements and I also noticed if you measure like 32 you are a 34 that seemed odd to me.

      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!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
