So... Ladies post op. I am having surgery on the 15th of july(YAY!). But the one thing on my mind is support. Not the human contact kind either... although I think my husband wouldn't mind the job. I need some advice on what to do for brassieres? I don't want to have to go out and buy a new bra every few weeks. I had thought of just getting a sports bra, but I hate the uni-boob look. So any and all advice would be helpful. What you did? how fast you lost your boobage? If you even lost that much? Thanks ladies!

Laugh if you want but in the beginning when I lost a lot of weight I didn't have money for new bras so I rolled up a pair of socks and stuffed it!!! Later on I bought some on eBay real cheap

Walmart has sport bras that feel like a real bra. They also separate in the middle so you dont have a uniboob. They are super comfy too.

I just bought 2 good bras from VS right now lol after work I knew I needed a new one. My boobs were no longer fitting the bras I had. I lasted in the ones I had and super old ones and sport bras. I would rather spend money on cloths.

I'm 11 months and needed bras desperately.

I went from 50D to 36C.

Still wearing the same bras they just fit alot better now. Mine were spilling out and I just hated buying more and I got to wearing sports bras that were more like regular bras just had compression. I haven't bought anything new except scrubs. I can't wait til I can walk into VS and pick out something super cute.

It's still surreal shopping there. I didn't know how to ask for a bra fitting but if course everyone there was super sweet and helped me fit a great fit and great styles!... It's so weird though!

In a strange bra sizing quirk, I've gone from 46D to 40 DD. I guess they girls aren't shrinking as fast as the rest of me!

I have been using the bra genie. If that's what it's called. They were from an infomercial but now they sell them at Wal-Mart and walgreens or cvs. I have large knockers 42ddd. They offer just enough support with just one on and no uniboob. If I'm going to the gym I put two on for extra support and then it will work like a sports bra. Also, they are stretchy so I have not had to buy new ones yet.

I don't want mine to shrink! And the other day my husband wasn't too happy about my butt shrinking, either!

Can't I just lose in the "important" areas? Like tummy, thighs, upper arms?

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
