I hate boobs... Let me just put it out there. Mine got so big after kids I had to buy them online so I always just made due with what got mailed to me. Now that the cup is actually starting to fit I'm kind of embarrassed that I was wearing it 50 lbs heavier....

Who would have thought your boobs would get BIGGER ;) Hope you're more comfortable at least!

My guess is you might be being fitted wrong. There is a great place here called Intimacy. Most of us are wearing way too big of a band size and too small of a cup size. I thought I was 38DD for the longest time, but since being fitted for the first time about 8 years ago and a number of times since I have ranged from a 32G to 34H and everything in between. Being fitted correctly helped my shoulders and back so much that I stopped pursuing a breast reduction.

I feel your pain...it seems I have never worn the right size. I got fitted by a professional and now my bras actually fit correctly. I am really hoping as I lose weight my boobs go down as well, they are in the way!

Ok so here's a question for you guys...how in the heck are we supposed to be fitted for a bra when they measure you with one on?!

I went to get fitted once and they just took a tape measure around the boobs with my clothes all on and rattled off a size and then left.

If you can get to a place like Intimacy, you take off your shirt and bra, they look, and they bring a bunch of stuff for you to try. I'm cheap but am happy to spend on a bra that lifts these suckers.

Nordstrom also does decent fittings, but I find the specialization at Intimacy can't be beat.

Amen - they are a pain in the back (well actually lots of places) but my husband seems attached.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
