O.K., so tell me; did you lose weight in your boobs? I am walking around in a whopping 50F. I bet you diddn't even know that bras come that big!!!

I am pre-band and a real newbie but very anxious to get banded.

But Lord, I am so tired of dragging these "puppies" around. That is one side benefit to banding that I can hopefully look forward to.

What happened to you?

I'm about 350-360 and 5/10 so I have a lot of weight to lose. If I do lose there, I figure they'll shrivel up and I'll have to roll them up and stick them in my bra:eek:

Yes, I started at a 42DD and am now a 36-38 (small)D depending on the bra. They are quite saggy though, so I don't see the cup size going down much more.

I started out at 309 pounds and was wearing a 44 D. After I lost the weight I went down to a 40 B. I just had breast augmintation though so I am now a 42 D. So yes for me they did go down in size. Good luck to you.

I haven't changed sizes yet, but they are definitely deflating. I've never been small chested even when I was skinny in high school. Having two kids after that, I have know idea with what I'm going to end up with when I get to my goal weight!

Someone on these boards says you lose from your head down and your toes up (tummy and booty last - as usual). My experience is agreeing with this so far :0)

Went from a tight 50 DD to a comfortable 46 D so far. Wish I could lose my "armpit boobs". Will definately have reconstruction done when all the weight is gone, they've never been pretty, or up where they need to be. Vanity after 50 years...weird how weight loss does that!

I was a 42DDD and now I'm a 36DDD. That sounds weird, but the cup of a 36c is smaller than the cup in a 42c, you know?

I was a C cup in the 6th grade, so my actual breast tissue (not just fat) is plentiful. Now they're just squishy, lol. I can't wait until I can get a lift.

I think basically you'll lose the fat in your breasts like you lose fat everywhere else, but however much of that is what you were 'supposed to have' will stick around, if that makes any sense.

I've only lost 20 pounds so far but I went from a 44 DDD to now wearing a 42 DD. I doubt they'll go below a DD in cup size as I did have a breast lift and enlargement 9 years ago. Even when I was thin a million years ago I was a 32C.

Thanks for all your replies. Sounds like there is some hope. Dragging these "jugs" (that feel like they're filled with quarters) is wearing me down!

I was a 48D/DD, now I'm a 36B. Might be getting an aug when I get to goal -- we'll see. I just want to be a C. I don't care to ever see D-land again, but B-land is a little sad.

My starting size was a 48 G and I'm down to a 38 DDD and hoping to have a breast lift early next year. Would like to be a C or D when I'm finished with the PS.

This is sick, but wish I had some of you'll problems. I'm the only fat person that I know of that didn't have big boobs. I was a 46C when I start this journey, look like I might not have anything by the time lose all my weight, and what I will have will just hang to my waist like a deflated balloonl

Well then I'm the second fat person with small boobs! Started as a 48 C (really closer to B) and I'm already down to a 42 C after losing 30 pounds. My dear hubby commented yesterday, "gee, it looks like your boobs are smaller now, hun..." Just what I wanted to hear...Hope I can swing a boob job to go along with the lower body lift that I'll need.

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL
