I can only speak for me' date=' since I'm 48, I'm sure this was coming later, but they are hanging down and are flat! I rarely go without a bra now, even to bed! Since they were mostly fat, and the fat is now gone, I guess that's what I'll have. Trying to workout at the gym to firm them up, with the rest of me that's "going south".[/quote']

Same here sister! ;) I read that October 13 is National No Bra Day. Aint gonna happen here; NOBODY needs to see this!

I'm 54 and have pancakes. Maybe it's better if you're younger.

I'm 31, don't have any kids, and they're pancakes. Boob job, here I come!!

I am no longer obese, I am now overweight!! (whoever thought I would be happy to be overweight ?! lol)

I went to buy sneakers, I use to be a size 11w...I am now a size 7, and i looked at my daughters sneakers...and fit them too...and she's a 6 1/2

I finally know what a collar bone, chin bone and waist bone feels like and can finally see them :)

use to be in a size 32 jeans now in a size 13....(lately the 13's are getting bigger but I refuse to buy to much clothes until my weight is steady)

I use to be size 46DD, then went to size 32d and now this bra is starting to get loose and soon i will be stuffing my bra at the age of 40 because my girls are looking like prunes...lol

I also use to have a nice booty but now that is going away :( thank goodness for butt pads..lol :)

overall I am happy with my progress...my assets are leaving but as a woman I know how to dress it up...Victoria Secret here i come...i think lol

congrats everyone on your progress!!

I went on vacation this past weekend and fit on the plane with extra room on the seat belt and no extender needed!! I also was able to ride roller coasters again for the first time since i was a teenager! So happy i had this surgery!

I fit into a size 14 pencil skirt that I got on sale at kohls for $10! And yesterday I bought high heels that I wore at work today for half the day. Wahoo!!!! This is amazing.

Congrats to all....good stuff!

All the sudden I have really boney wrists, and I finally got my wedding rings sized from a 7 1/2 down to a 4 1/4 !!!!

Just put on my first pair of jean this season and i believe they are at least two possibly three sizes to big for me :-). Time to go try some jeans on!

How is it I am loosing inches but not pounds

It is part of the stall process. I lost all my inches when I was not losing weight. It is like your body catches up to the weight loss. I am 15 months post op and people keep saying I am losing weight. I tell them no it is all inches. Personally inches are more rewarding - and more fun. When you lose inches you have a new excuse to go shopping. I bought a new dress today and felt like a million bucks!

Thats awesome but I feel like a failure noe that the scale has halted! I only have 25 lbs to go.

Do they shrink or become pancakes

Speaking just for myself, I started at a huge 42F and I am now at a 38DD and the have shrunk/firmed nicely.
