Hi, hope you don't mind, I moved your thread out of introductions to the "powder Room".

Honestly, I think it is an individual thing. I have many friends who have lost weight, and when they have, they have gone down several bra sizes. Even when I was thin, I was large chested. I have lost weight several times over the years, but my breast have always remained the same size. Actually, I wish I would lose some in them, a C cup would be a nice change!

i don't think there is anyway to know for sure if it "will" or "will not" happen. for me, i went from a 38DD to a 32D - which is fine for me & the hubby:wink_smile:

Genetics also play a role in this, look at the women in your family for an idea.

My mom was a size 0 when she was younger and always had a full C cup.

I had a 46 DD when I was banded, I am now in a 38D..

It's going to depend upon how much of your boobs were fat and how much actual breast tissue. If you can remember being thin at any time, your boobs will probably return to that size (although maybe not as perky). I've gone from a really tight 22E to an 18F (Aus sizes) and I'm still spilling out of the cups, although I probably need an F-long :whatchutalkingabout I'm less than half way to goal and I'm figuring that at goal, I'll still be a 12F (our 12 = US 8). When I was young and skinny, I was a 12E but I think with all the extra skin in there, I'll still fill an F cup. Once that's done, all I'll need to do is have the boob lift, so my nipples don't keep getting stuck in my belly button :tt2:

Probably. I still have D cups but they are down to my navel now, sigh. They really are totally ruined and are going to require reconstructive work. Thank goodness its all I need, but I really need it. Next year. DH is very keen for me to do it, he likes boobs (as most men do) and I now have a very nice pair - for a 90 year old!

I have a total of six years of breastfeeding and three pregnancies behind me too though, that makes a difference, and nature never blessed me with pert boobs in the first place. I've seen others lose weight and their boobs are perfectly fine.

Size wise I couldnt be happier, if I lose a little more size as you often do with a lift, I dont mind being a C. I'm not really one for wanting large breasts, I just want a nicely shaped pair.

My parents told me a long time ago, that when i loose my weight to target goal (they never said how) that they would help me get boobs. My whole family (2 other sisters and mom) are all well...well endowed. Then there is me...NOTHING. SO...once my bug bites go away,hopefully they will follow through...which i know they will (after all for my wedding last august 25 they got me a hummerzine!! my childhood dream!)

geesh, we've noticed the shrinkage in the boob dept. already! just dh the other day started laughing and said, "wow babe, i can really notice the smaller & bigger boob!" being the smart ass that i am, i said,"i don't know why you're laughing, you're going to pay to make them look normal." that shut him up really quick!

i've always thought i had/have small boobs for a big girl,42c at my biggest, and i'm now at 40c. i have no kids, and i'm 25, and these things are saggy! i know i'll need 'em repaired after i'm done having babies.

I have lost almost 20 pounds. I have lost inches everywhere except my boobs. Mine have always been big, but now they are big and saggy.

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

      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.
