Expierience breast sag??



Recommended Posts

Hey everyone...

I'm 18 and i currently just finished my 4th month out of the 6 required supervised months and so far i have lost 20 lbs.

My question is for the women preferably around my age range or 20's. I was wondering after you lost your weight with the lapband did you experience any breast sag? do you have any suggestions to help prevent it? I have a signifficant amount of weight to still lose and i havent expierenced any problems yet with my -20lbs. However i'm young and i would hate to have to worry about having saggy boobs at 18 haha. any help?? thanks :thumbup:

The biggest factor is what are your breasts like now?

If they sag now (heavy, hang over the inframammary fold ie. you can hold a pencil under them, and downward pointing nipples), they still will, they just will be smaller and sag. If you have pert ones without overhang at the fold and with forward or upward pointing nipples, at your age they might recover.

My boobs suck now. I don't really know what I could have done though. I'd much rather be healthy with silly saggy boobs then they way I was before.

i think jachut is right. boobs are so weird! they are different on everyone. for me, they were sagging even before i was at my highest weight. now that i am losing weight, they are still saggy, but not any worse than they were before. they have gotten a little bit smaller though, but not enough for me to buy a new bra. yet.

oh yeah-- but don't worry about them too much--- there are some AMAZING bras out there. even if you are big chested, don't be afraid to get a pushup bra. i use the victoria secret infinity edge, and all of my girl friends tell me they want my boobs. i just laugh and say "trust me-- no you dont." but it's still good to know other people think they look decent. well-- with help!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      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! 😞
