Sooooooooo....

I am just about to head out to buy new bra's.

I was 44 DD before I started the 2 week liver reduction diet and 3 weeks ago I bought a new bra which is 40DD but now it's hanging off me both in size and cup size. I don't want to keep buying bra's every few weeks so I am going to look at the bra strap extenders .. .. Has anyone used these? Any other suggestions?

How many sizes did you go down until you got to goal?

I can tell my girls have shrunk but I'm only 6 weeks out so I haven't bought new bras yet. I'm trying to wait until the last possible moment!

I can only hope Miss Mac !

42DD to 36D.

I'll always have big boobs no matter how much weight I lose ;)

Same here. 48DD to 38DD. I also have always had very large boobs. I think that makes a difference in how they shrink as you lose weight. I'm still a DD, they just hang to my knees now LOL

Add another "D" to that before size and we could be cup twins, Kate! Lord, if I lose major inches anywhere I hope it's there. It's like having two backpacks strapped to your chest, 24/7, filled to the brim with boulders. The one (and probably only) plastic surgery I will have once I reach goal will be a breast reduction or lift.

Good luck on the shopping!

38D now... whohoooooooo :P I didn't bother with the extensions

@ Yes, I agree.. its nice to be smaller at last!! I will be joining you re the lift too.

46C to a 38c/b. I have deflated! Ugh!

Wow, that's a major change, Kate. Congrats!

Yes I have used Extenders. The bras I liked didn't go up to the band size I needed so I got ones where the cup fit. I Used bra size 44D/DD (depended on the bra) to get up to a band size 50/52 They work fine but do tend to stretch out and your bra straps are more likely to slip out from under your clothing. I have the "luxury" of being unemployed and have just been wearing "Sports" bras from walmart. They are more like half tank tops with elastic under the breasts, but they do a reasonable job. A 3 or 4 pack from walmart runs around $10. It is nice to have when you just don't want to put on a real bra.

Genie bras have lasted me a few band sizes and cup sizes. I'm a 44DD right now but I was a between a 38 and 40D last year. The bra is a little snug but not uncomfortable.

40dd to 34b.

I bought my bras at tj max for $5 and used bra extenders. I just bough a while slew of bras in my new size at a thrift store!
