I was a 42 F and mine are down to a size 34 DD. It is mainly from loose skin. The air was sort of let out of them. Which is good and bad - they are no longer heavy, but they hang to my stomach sometimes. God bless my husband - he loves them no matter what!

Even if you do go down, more than likely they will still be perky!

I would disagree! If you have giant boobs now, most likely they will deflate into tube socks and pretty much hang and defy gravity! I was a 42G and I have so much hanging skin from my blogs I have to wear a 32F. Once you lose the far and muscle in this area it's not much you can do.

Omg you have just confirmed my worst fear! I'm a 42H right now and before I got fat I was a 38ddd. But no hanging skin. Isn't there anything to do to prevent at least a little bit of the loose skin!

She said she's a 42B... So I was saying that even if she looses some boobs and becomes an A they will probably stay more firm because they are smaller

My doctor said there was nothing I could do to prevent it. I exercised, still sticking with the plan. Ohh my butt deflated as well and I start getting this horrible tailbone pain. No one really told me that it was a common issue, but it is. It got so bad I had to get steroid injections in my tailbone. I have to sit with a seat cushion pretty much at all times now. But everyone body is different so you just never know. I lost a lot of weight under my chest but they don't have bras 28/30F and of course my stomach isn't the same size so it creates a muffin top. But I wouldn't change a thing - you can't tell with your clothes on!!! Posting pics.

Kiwi you look great!!!! I know there are things to expect. I'm 34 and I don't think i can snap back like I was before I pregnant back in 2007 lol. I'm used to my stretch marks but saggy skin scared me. Especially when I read about all the skin problems that can happen because of it. Just have to get used to the idea I'm not going to be a Victoria secret model lol. Damn haha jk. I'll be healthy and that's all that matters. Thanks for posting your pictures. I think we should start another thread w before and afters. Keeps everyone motivated.

Had a breast reduction years ago. Now into a B cup from DD, but they droop with the weight loss. So here is a thought, for those of us that have that problem, just roll them up and put them in the bra cup. :D Really I'm joking, my other thought was just tuck them in your slacks. :D

Men and babies love our boobies because they are nice and soft and snuggly. Men don't care what your boobies look like. They just want to touch them. The softer, the better. Just ask your significant others. Also, my mother (whose is 85 and married to my Dad for 63 years) always taught me to enjoy your intimate time with your partner. If you keep complaining about being fat in the bedroom, that is worse. They don't see us the way we see us. Also, she taught me to enjoy the aerobics in the bedroom, because when you get older, you can't do those kind of aerobics anymore. Boy, oh boy, was Mom right!!! Always is. lol

I agree. I'm 54 so I was under no illusions about my girls. I knew they'd deflate and hang to my knees! Lol

That's why we have bras. I just roll 'em up and drop 'em in! :-)

Definitely go see a professional bra fitter because most everyone is wearing the wrong size. The right fit will make you look and feel better.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
