losing weight means losing boobs?!



Recommended Posts

i've only lost like 23lbs and i think it's all in the boobs! wich i am liking though, seems like mostly around they are shrinking not sure about the cup when i go back to the states next month i'll get measured. now i am a 42D , i would love to go back to a 34 C like i was when i was 15. I wore a size 9/11 and i was 155 lbs and 1 inch shorter than i am now, and i was pretty cute so i hope to at least return to that.

I was a 44 D and I am now a 40/42 B. I am having my boobs replaced on April 5th. I cant wait.They ordered them yesterday. That is so weird to say. I do miss them. That is the only thing I miss though. Well that and brownies. :-) But yes mine did get a lot smaller.

I've had alot of people tell me that when they had lap band and lost all their weight their breast size went down... is this true??

My cup size has gone up one full size and I've been told by several people that my boobs look bigger.

My theory is that - as of yet - my boob fat has not been part of the fat I've lost (neither has my thigh or hip fat :mad: ), but abdominal fat and side/back fat definitely has been. So my boobs are actually the same size, they're just more visible because the area around them has receeded.

Well, so far I went from a 42DD to a 38D. Aside from that, I noticed what a lot of other people have said. My boobs now look like deflated balloons! LOL!!! I started wearing push-up bras to get them back to where they belong!

I also have experienced the deflating/flating of the boobs. I have lost around but not a cup size. They certainly aren't as full as they once were, but I am still in the same cup size. I started out at 46DD and I am now to 40DD. Slowly but surely decreasing. I would love to be a C cup. If I'm not there by the time I reach my goal weight, I will get them decreased when I get them lifted back up to where they outta be. :heh:

My cup size has also increased. The way it was explained to me, by the woman at Dillards, is that the cup size is determined by the difference in measurements, between the fullest part of the breast, and the band area just beneath them. Well that is one of the areas I have really lost a lot. So I was measured originally at a 44DD, and now am wearing a 38G....measured and fitted by the same woman, and in the same style of bra. I lost back and under arm fat, and even though I am going down some---the cup size is increasing because the overall size of say my ribcage area is so much smaller.

I was worried about what to do when my boobs were no longer bigger than my belly---so far it isn't a problem. I would seriously look into a reduction, but I have keloid factor, and the PS said it would be dicey. Oh well-----rather have the big boobs than the big belly anyway!!!

Well, I have lost 77 lbs. in the last eight months, and I can sure see that some of it has been in my boobs. I am down to a 38long from a 42dd, but the wierdest thing is the texture of the skin. once I get it all picked up in my hand to shove in the bra pockets, it is all wrinkled up like the butt on a sharpe' (spelling?) doggie . It is all wrinkly,crinkly, and crepey feeling. It really wierds me out. Oh well, for Christmas this year I get a tt,boob job,and my arms done. So I can only fret till then, as I know it won't suddenly get better as time goes on. I just buy those hard cup bras and fake everyone out!!!!!

I have gone down from a 48J to a 40J. (Yes I did say a J..) :)

I have noticed that while I am still the same cup size, they are not as full as they once were, but a J, I am thinking I am ok if I do! lol...

I wouldn't mind losing a couple of cup sizes and going back down to a D cup. Thats what I had in the eigth grade and I was a lot thinner then and a couple of inches shorter so I figure its not out of the realm of possibilities... Because right now I wear a 44 and its a DDD. or at least a DDD seems to do the job cause a DD sure has spill over issues. I refuse to even ponder DDDD. And my boobs have been sagging since I was 17 so I suspect losing weight won't help the issue much. Its one of these things I've accepted as an inevitble truth-- my boobs are too fond of gravity. My arms are already sort crepe like and flabby. I'm probably going to need some work done once I'm done losing weight. My breasts are fabululous, they just might need some upkeep and surgical assistance to stay fabulous in the years to come.

i've lost 80lbs...i went form a 42G to a 38DD... I thought i would be happy at DD, but they are still so freaking big. I'm hoping that when i lose my 30lbs and hit goal i will finally be a C.

It was true for me! I was little to begin with, was a C and now I am a B. I didn't want it to happen but its okay, if the rest of my body shrinks too, I will look okay. I might even consider getting a boob job when I am all done. =)

The last time I lost a large amount of weight (80lbs) I went down in band size, and up a cup size. We'll have to see what happens after banding.

      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!!
