Will i loose my big girls?



Recommended Posts

Hello all, I'm a month post op and refused to weigh myself after a few weeks stall and now, I am letting the doctors office tell me my weight cos I get frustrated when the scale is still while I'm pushing myself so hard to exercise. Anyway, I wanted to know from those that were before me if I will loose my boobs as I'm losing weight? My hubby is worried that I will lose all the weight and my boobs will be the only things that people will notice fast. Maybe I might need a breast reduction. I am a big woman and so are my boobs but if I loose the weight and not my boobs then I will be shapeless. I don't think that I will like the sight of that.

I lost about 61lbs and counting ( I havent been able to weigh myself in a couple weeks cause my scale broke). But anyway my boobs feel and look like to me that they deflated :( I was a 42ddd. Now I dont know what I am I guess I should get measured.

I am down 70 lbs and 10 lbs to goal, and have gone from a 44DD to a 36C/D and they have deflated! I'm ok with the smaller size for my smaller body but at some point I'm going to need a lift!

Everyone is different. Some people lose their boobs first and some people don't. I had 36dd's when I was a size 2/4 and 110 pounds. I've lost 50 pounds and I am losing band size but not cup size.

When you gain, where do you gain? When you were of a more healthy weight, did you have big boobs?

Wherever you gained it last, you will lose it first. Things won't snap back to where they were in your teens, but every pound list, no matter where from is a pound healthier for you!

I was a 48H, I am now down 55 pounds, and just bought new bras, I measured and fit into a 44DDD... I too have big girls...... when I came home upset because they were actually shrinking... my husband rolled his eyes and said "I don't know why you are so upset, I AM THE ONE who should be upset about this, they are my favorite toys."..... I am scared they will be saggy little deformed deflated Water balloons, and I know I do not and will probably never be able to afford to fix them.... so yes I am in a panic over htis thought..... just gonna buy the best bras I can afford... right now I am loving the butterfly bras I bought, they also help with my back fat.... this body is changing.... but it is not all good.... but not he other hand we don't want loose a bunch of weight and have huge girls.... we would look cartoonish if we did.

I had to laugh at your DH's comments.....I'm expecting something similar LOL

I'm a little concerned about the girls.....I already have one a little deformed from a lumpectomy....I hate to think what it'll look deflated LOL [but, really, if that's an issue, I'll get a lift]

I have lost almost 70 lbs, I was a 42G now I am a 38G only the band size has gone done so far. My DH declares that I must have been born with boobs lol. When we met I was 15 and weighed 103 lbs and wore a size 34dd. I hope mine get smaller, I have very bad back, shoulder and neck pain from the girls. If not I will be considering a breast reduction forsure.

Oh gosh. I'm sitting here giggling reading your posts. I too have big girls. I described it to someone as 'my boobs walking in the door and five minutes later my body follows'. I live in Vermont and travel to New Jersey when I need more bras, a place my NJ sister goes to, you know the one where they look in your eyes, squeeze each breast and call out "Harry bring me the 48G from the top shelf." 100 dollars a bra.

I can't wait to have smaller breasts. I do plan on having a reduction, when I'm all done (surgery date 7/16).

Seriously, if you get rashes or back aches or dents in your shoulders, see a plastic surgeon. Most insurance companies pay for reductions.

I am looking forward to buying a smaller sexy bra instead of the ones I have now where if I cut them in half, I have two hats.

I am a little over 100 lbs down so far & my chest is like two deflated balloons. I went from a 52G to a 42DDD & still deflating. I am going to need a serious lift by the time this is all over. :(

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!
