When i began this journey i was foolish, even though i thought i was well informed. I just knew since i wasn't "that big", plastic surgery would not be needed. First of all my eyes were playing tricks on me. i look back at pics now and i was "that big". But everything was moving along slower than i wanted but still moving, no saggy skin in site. I actually discovered that i had a little bit of a booty hiding under the fat. THEN I WOKE UP AND FOUND THAT MY BOOBS WERE EMPTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

IT WAS NOT GRADUAL , WENT TO sleep ONE DAY THEY WERE FINE A LITTLE SMALLER BUT STILL AWESOME. THE VERY NEXT MORNING I WAS MET WITH TWO VERY SAD SUNNY SIDE UP EGGS!!! EVERYONE IN MY FAMILY HAS HUGE BOOBS EVEN THE SMALL ONES, SO IN MY MIND I WOULD NOT BE AFFECTED. SO HERE WE ARE LOOKING FOR A SURGEON ~LE SIGH~

Did anyone initially not want additional surgeries but ended up getting them?

I was hoping not to get them but now I can't wait for new boobs (via a lift). I'm only about 3 months out from surgery though!

I am so sad my boobs are getting smaller and smaller!! I am 8 months out and down 226 pounds.

Mine just keep getting longer but I think I'll just keep slinging them up with a bra. My arm wings on the other hand have got to go.

Maybe you rolled over on a spikey strip, and they deflated?

My boobs are already by my belly button, wondering what they'll look like if I lose weight...

I had my empty, long puppies hiked up (BL) no implants though, there was enough there to be a nice C (from a DD/E)

Now they look fab.

Sounds possible. lol

Leaning towards lift with a fat transfer to fix the upper flatness, still have a little meat at the bottom. they look wrinkled in a bra so push ups make it worse.

Yeah 2 fried eggs hanging on a nail. I'm almost 63, had 2 kids so used to that! I always wanted larger breasts until I had them pregnant from a 36a to a 46 eee and then down to 44 b/c -b a little tight, c a little big.

I don't want to be bigger really or even as big as they were, just want symmetrical full breast

Yep, I fully expect to have rocks in socks at the end of this. but ambivalent on whether I'll do anything about it. So far i have lost nothing in my boobs. but I mean it is going to have to come off there at some point right? Im at a 32 BMI right now. To be honest they are the biggest impediment to me fitting into my smaller clothes. I have about 4-5 inches to lose in the chest/back to get into my size 10 dresses. They fit everywhere else, so maybe the next 15 will come off of my chest/back

I wish we could pick the body parts that we want to drop weight from. Until then i will keep doing the dreaded upper body work outs until i decide on surgery.

I've had plastics, and my surgeon wouldn't do the surgery until I was at a steady weight for at least year because going up or down in weight will cause problems with the surgical results. Also, you'll notice your body changing after a while at goal weight. You may change your mind about certain areas and be surprised about how well others faired.

Was shooting for dec I'm.. 11 lbs from my first goal in dec I'll be a year and a half out

I so wish I could donate these things to you cuz they are causing me even more back issues since I've lost more weight. I went from 48 HHH to a 42 G. Lost a total of 152 lbs so far & I'm doing all I can to strengthen my back but I run into aches at least 3 times a month. I was foolish to not want any other surgeries either but now I want them decreased in size & all the excess skin removed. Hell if possible I'll increase my buttocks a bit. My mother seems to think I'm addicted to surgery now at I'm on this line of thought. I'm comfortable with me but why not get it the way you want if you can..

I was hoping they would be age-appropriate saggy, but I'm "only" down 60 lbs and have another 40-60 to go, and it's sad what is happening in the chesticles area. The bat-wing arms aren't cute, either, or the rolling thighs. I'm walking and spinning and doing weights 2-5x a week, hoping with time and exercise some of it sorts itself out a bit, but I figure 2019 or 2020 there will be a tummy tuck, breast implant/lift that needs to be budgeted for.
