My entire life I've been a 38DD and I rarely ever lost weight in my breasts until WLS - I have gone down a cup size and two band sizes....

Once my weight stabilizes I’m getting a lift

My husband just wants me to do squats so he has a handle. Was just shocked at how much they shrunk. Now mind you I breast fed up untill I left for the hospital and then quit cold turkey then and there.

My moobs are shrinking and I'm as happy as can be!!!!!! :D

I’ve lost a few band sizes, but no cup sizes yet. I plan on getting a lift/reduction post kids, as I’d like to attempt breastfeeding if we have kids and I’m pretty sure lifts and reductions will hinder that.

One reason I started back into spin was because I want to keep the booty!

I’ve heard I’ve lost a lot in my hips from a few people which is odd- because proportionally, I never had big hips to begin with? Much more of an apple shape!

My boobs deflated first too... I’m like, what tha? Of all the places, really???? How about some thigh fat or Belly fat... but , No....that’s what baby Stomach ate first! Wrong, just wrong!
I’m a little sad. I can’t get a boob job because I plan on having one more baby but not for a while
Sharing my Dinner with you dear Bari Sisters and Brothers: Tender Red Cabbage, lovingly braised in Sunflower Oil, with a dash of salt, garlic powder and splash of Red Wine Vinegar for a tart flair, paired with my fav Christmas beans, soaked overnight, boiled, drained, dusted with Onion Powder and then crisped to perfection in Olive oil! That’s actually my daughters plate which I offset with cauliflower in egg Batter and some slow roasted tenderloin steak . But in my new Veganish way(never ever EVER thought, Vegan and me will be used in same sentence), I paired my cabbage and Beans with a creamy dollop of garlic hummus and a sliver of Avocado! I could almost hear the angels singing, it is well with my pouch!

I use Aria scale which is connected to Fitbit and sends weight and fat stats to phone app and graphs them for me :)

Do you have thoughts about the Fitbit vs Apple Watch?

You know I wear them both but for fitness, it's fitbit all the way! Simple, easy to the point, not too big, and it shows steps on the face! For the life of me I can't figure out why Apple will not show steps on the Face!!??! I even went to the apple store and they could not figure it out. You have to go digging for that intel. No Bueno!
