Affordable Bra while I'm loosing?

I've lost about 38 pounds and just now my bras are starting to pucker. I cannot wear shirt that shows the shape of my bra. Do anyone of you have suggestions of decent bras that I can buy "while" I'm loosing. Once I've lost, I'm willing to spend more money to get nicer bras.

I've wondered about this too and think I will just do sports bras for a while.

I had breast reduction surgery and now that I am 3 months out from that, I bought a couple of Genie bras as an experiment. They look ok under my clothes and are very comfortable. I was pleasantly surprised. They don't adjust or have cup sizes though, so finding the proper fit might be tricky.

I've bought the Genie bras before and they were not big enough for me. I currently wear a 42 DD. I bought them at walmart and had to return. Maybe if I looked online, they would have bigger sizes.

@@brown eyed gal: From the back of the package it seems that they do make them larger, but you are probably correct that they would only be available on line. Most stores don't bother carrying large sizes.

K-mart & target have decent bras for a good price. My mom gets good buys there all the time. I went down 6" off my back but still haven't dropped a cup size! Can't wait til I do!!

Check Kohl's! If you don't care what they look like, you can probably find some decent bras on clearance. Last time I went bra shopping there, I found some nice Olga and Lillyette minimizer bras for $10-12/each. They're not the cutest bras I've had, but for the price...

I went bra shopping this pass weekend. Yes I want some nice ones with support was explains to the sales lady that was sizing me what was going on & that I didn't want to spend a fortune on bras since in a couple weeks they may not fit correctly. She recommend buy one really nice one, hand wash it air dry it use a sports bra or the one I'm not fitting so well around the house ... But do the one really good one for work, outings ect ... Cause she said as little as a 5lb weight loss will change everything about your bra. She also turned me on to the store web site cause the have coupons & sales there... Got to say I was really impressed that she didn't try to up sale everything & TRUELY wanted to help me save some on this process.I bought 2 one really sexy one (bring sexy back ladies) one for just great comfort .. Yes I plan on going back in a couple of weeks and repeating the process again.
