Question for the ladies...



Recommended Posts

So far, I'm in the same cup size but they're less full. Actually, they've gotten droopy. I told my hubby that once I get to my goal weight, after all the exercise I can do to "pump them up" LOL!, I may consider a breast lift. I don't wanna work this hard and have droopy boobs!

Mine got much smaller which I'm happy about but they look absolutely horrible...they are covered in stretch marks, hang so low that I could tuck them into my belt and no firmness to them whatsoever.

well, it is not that they got smaller it is my bra which got loose. I cant really notice them well but my bra said it all.. yes they are some how loose but with some strength training believe me they get firmer.

46DD to a 38C. I always had a big chest, even when I wasn't overweight. This is a great size for me. No backaches and running isn't too hard with this size.

This should not just be a question for the ladies. My wife tells me I've gained a few cup sizes in recent years as well! If I lose too much weight I just may consider implants. I don't want to have to buy a whole new wardrobe, if you see what I mean.

Unfortunately not, lol. I dont have huge boobs - in proportion to me, I am an E cup but 5ft 10, so I dont have the kind of bustline where people dont talk to my face. They suit me OK. But its hard to buy bra's for an E, especially when you've shrunk to an Australian 12-14 band size, its a speciality size, not an off the rack size.

I'm seriously considering a liposuction reduction to a D cup. I run a lot and I really could do without the wolf whistles and hoots on the main roads as well, they do cause a bit of a stir when they're bouncing up and down! I wouldnt go a full reduction due to the scarring, and even though they're a bit on the sad side after 7 years of breastfeeding 3 children, I dont really care about that either. I'd just like to be able to run in more comfort and buy bras more easily.

I have never been well endowed. The most I ever was, I wore a 46C. I have only lost 38 lbs and I am down to 44B. My breasts are already sagging with stretch marks. But I don't care. I can't wait till I can buy a bra off the "regular rack".

Later on down the road... A pin up/perk me up job maybe. Right now, I don't think I would be interested in implants.

I am a mammography tech, and it does depend on your age, and the make up of your breast tissue. When we are younger, the breast tissue is made up primarily of fibrocystic, dense tissue. Very little is truly fat. So if you lose when you are younger, not much should come from the breast, but a lot will lose from around your rib cage. As we age, it becomes more fatty tissue, especially after menopause. So as we age, and lose weight, more weight will be lost from the breast tissue comparatively to a 20 year old.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
