Weight loss & breast loss?

thecraftinista

I'm looking forward to losing some extra boob. I play competitive dodgeball and am always having to wear two sports bras just to keep them in check.

i had like to no boobs to begin with (like i was an a- sometimes i could get away with a b), and they still shrunk! (can't do a b anymore!)

I want the whole 'mommy makeover' package where they do implants and a tummy tuck!!

I went from thinking I was a 36D, to being a 32E (DDD). I'm curious to what I was before I found my correct size. I know I lost some breast size due to it being a fatty area, but for some you may be losing more inches in that area and it's making your breast look smaller. If you looked at me, you'd think I was a C cup.

My boobs sadly are always the first thing to go when I lose weight. I went from a 40d to a 34b. Victoria's Secret push up bras will be my new best friend...

Quick question: where are you ladies getting fitted? I recommend avoiding getting fitted at VS b/c they fit customers to fit their bras, so their system is different. Try Nordstrom's. They do great fittings. You may be surprised at what your actual bra size is.

My boobs didn't change size even after 20pounds losts. I had to have them sonogramed due to a lump found. They are mostly breast tissue, very little fat. The tech said that even with weight loss I would not really lose any size in the cups! So sad. I have to go to specialty stores to get them in my size. No Victoria Secret, Lane Bryant or Nordstrom for me. They are always $50 or more per bra and forget about finding a sports bra that fits!

I went from a C to an A. It happens because boobies are just fat. You don't pick where you lose it from, it just goes. Some people lose it from other places vs the chest. Unfortunately, you can't control it.

Started at 230lb 38DDD
Currently 196lbs 36DD
Goal weight of 140-150, when I was that weight as a teenager I wore 36C.
I would focus on fat loss and strength training.

rseneca724

Over the years of gaining and losing weight I have never had much of a change in my boobs (always been between 36-38DD). Until this time...I have lost about 12 lbs and I am already noticing that the girls seem a little smaller I don't mind losing a bit, but the sag that's coming with it I can completely do without.

VegasFit

I went from about a D to a B but I knew I would cause it had happened before. Just pulled out my old bras and called it a day. Doesn't bother me enough to ever do anything surgical. On the plus side I don't double up on sports bras anymore and I can get away with a cheap 3 pack from Walmart and call it a day. Also backless and strapless undergarments are no longer an issue as I can get away with those adhesive type bras now that I couldn't before.

I love my little boobs now!

lilmisfit1987

No boob shrinkage from me with 61.4lbs lost. I went from 260lbs to 198.6lbs. I was an 40D and now I'm a 36DDD. I WANT THE SHRINKAGE! I really don't want to leave the D range. I still have another 60lbs to lose so we'll see. I was a 36C as a teenager and getting back down to that would be a-ok to me!

Shootersplusgal2

Right now I am a falling out of a 36DDD and I hope to lose a few sizes as the weight comes off. I can't wait to be able to shop for bras in a normal store!!

I am just beginning my journey, but I can't wait to loose my boobs. I was a B cup before I gained my weight, I am now falling out of a DD cup. They get in my way, hurt and sweat like a pig. If I could I want to be an A to B cup size, thankfully my husband is not a BOOB man.

Exactly... I was a B before I gained weight and had kids. Now I'm a DD but my husband IS a boob man. I don't like them much because they sweat and I can't wear a top that looks nice. If it covers my boobs good it's baggy on the bottom. My hubby is just gonna have to be happy with whatever after my weight loss. lol

Yup, that's what I did. I didn't lose much weight but I did lose body fat and my boobs were just... sad. I was a D cup but at the end they were just deflated... So I decided that the only way I'd have boobs at a low body fat % was implants. Done!

I also agree with the person saying don't get fitted at VS. I find they'll try to sell you anything. I'm a 30' band and they wanted to put me in 34' so I'd fit their biggest size (still didn't fit in the cup, but ah well). VS & I broke up

My only regret about losing any chest size is that I had a proportionately small band size to begin with, and was also pretty triumphant when I found my somewhat odd 30DD or 32 DD sizes. Now I have a small drawer of beautiful, hard-won bras that no longer fit. But I'm healthier...so...sigh.

I wish this was my problem! I was a 32C in high school then gained a ton of weight and went to a 36/38 DDD. I am still a 36DD. I would kill to have them go back down to a C or even a B. I have barely lost anything in my chest with a 33 pound loss. I have 30 more to go so we'll see.

I am right there with you! I am currently a 36DDD. At my best weight (115 lbs) I was a 36C, before getting pregnant I was a 36D/DD, then went up to a 36J and now back down to triple D. I want my C cup back!!! I feel like I overall look heavier because of my boobs even though I'm less than 5 pounds overweight.
I lost 30 lbs a few years ago and went from a 36DD to a 36D. 30 lbs. What? Ugh!

Debmal77

It's lose people. Loose is what you want your pants to be.......

ourtruelovewillneverdie

I wish I had the problems of big boobs. At my heaviest I was a 36D, but I also was nursing a baby for the first time. I'm a 32B now and I have some room in the cups. I live for the Victoria's Secret bras that add two cup sizes. I'm set on getting implants one day to get to a full C. No bigger because it wouldn't be proportionate.

You can always build the muscle behind the girls to lift'em or fill'em a bit.

nattyy264

Iv always thought I was a DD. Till a few weeks back I got measured and found out I was a FF. With me starting to lose weight and eat healthy I so wish my boobs go back to a DD. This back ache is herendous!! Lol

When you loss your boobs do they automatically sagg bc that's what I'm nervous about since I'm a DD? I've lost 10lbs so far and I can't wait to start actually seeing results.

Samesies. I had 38D/DD when I was in the high 170's low 180s, and I could probably wear a training bra now (in the mid/high 110's). Luckily my boobs adjusted really well to the loss, and I dont have excess skin to deal with.

I joke that my big girls came with a big gut. They were apparently a package deal!

rbfdac

50 pound loss right now, went from a DDD to a DD. I imagine another 50 pounds and I'll be at a D. Oh well.

It is all dependent on the person. Boobs are made up of fat and breast tissue. If your boobs are higher fat to breast tissue ratio, you will lose more of them than if they were more breast tissue to fat. Unfortunately, there is nothing you can do to keep from losing the fat in your boobs (genetics play into where you lose your weight from).

.

Thank you for actually explaining it correctly.

I have dense breasts, so very little fat. But ladies, that's a high risk for breast cancer. Be aware.

Ohwhynot

I went from a 38B/36C in my early 20s to a AA with a 60 lb weight loss. Not everyone loses them but I sure did! (I gained everything back.)

slickmickey

i've always been a barely b. with my weight gain, i finally made it to be b cup. so when i started losing weight i wasnt too worried cause i didnt think it would change up there too much.

but suddenly my pants no longer fit. i always had a great butt. everyone said it. bubble butt on a white girl!!! now, it's completely gone... but i've still got that b cup *grumble grumble*

Rogiefreida

I'd say it really depends on your genetics. Mine never shrink below a solid C cup, even as my BF is lower than it's ever been (~22%). I'm thinking of competing in a bodybuilding competition in the next 2 years, so if I do then BF will go even lower, boobs may or may not go with it. I'm ok with it either way. I can always buy new ones. lol

This is exactly what I did when I hit my goal weight. I loved my boobs and almost considered gaining the weight back just to have them again. With implants I have the best of both worlds! Not going to lie, it's pretty awesome!
