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!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
