I've noticed recently that if I'm not sitting up straight the underwire on my bra hits right about where the band is and it makes it tighter. If I eat/drink something I have to sit completey straight or pull my bra away from my body for a minute to let the food pass by. Other than correcting my posture (which I should do anyway) does anyone have any suggestions for ways to fix this? A new type of bra, maybe? I'm pretty busty so need the wire for support and can't go without at work or in public. It's mostly annoying when I'm out with friends (none of whom know I have the band) and have to keep playing with my bra! Help, please!

Well, I haven't had this problem BUT if I get stuck I've found that if I stand up and make sure my shoulders are back and back is very straight, the stuck bit often moves right on then.

Maybe it's time for both of us to just work on the posture thing!

Hmmm, so just how big is your bra? Maybe its time for a smaller size :cursing:...my jeans have had the same effect in the past but never my bra. But hey, restriction without the restriction. However, make sure your girls are being taken care of properly, too. I bought a Soma bra, one that would stick with me for a long time (I've been a slow loser). And even tho its more expensive its lasted 6 months. Now I'm finding them starting to slip under the bra which is a sure fire sign that its time to jump to a lower size. And you might have something with the posture thing, too. Treat yourself to a good bra.:scared2:

Thanks, ladies! I will take the advice both of you have given and 1.) work on the posture, and 2.) buy some new bras. Maybe it's time to go get a fitting. I have lost inches around but I'm still wearing the same cup siz as before...I'm hoping that has changed, too! I'd love to loose a little bit from the girls. Thanks, again! I appreciate your help!!

My regular ugly bra, that's comfortable doesn't do anything like that, but my push up bra from Victoria's Secret does. Bummer huh? It's just constructed and shaped differently. I love it, and have dreamed of wearing one for YEARS, so I'm NOT getting rid of it....

I remember the last time I went into a Victorias Secret, right before I bought the Soma, and the sales lady came out with the 4, the ONLY 4 bras in the store, that MIGHT fit me. Of course they all looked like what was popular in the eastern block countries 40 years ago. In my minds eye I could see her going to the dusty cabinet, the one that hardly ever gets opened 'cause women my size wouldn't think of going into VS for a bra, the creaking of the door and the swooshing away of cob-webs...At least she sounded cheerful that she was able to present me with something. So, Aubrie, enjoy every second with VS! Maybe the next time I go bra shopping I'll pop in. BTW - Aubrie's my daughter's middle name. Its so pretty
