    Eh, boobies are overrated.

    As a man, I have to strongly disagree with that statement...but I will add that boobs do not make the relationship unless that is what the relationship was based on...I know a few people who dated others strictly based on boob size.
    My wife has a nice boobs...and I like 'em but they do not define our relationship.

    This is a big fear my wife has. She down plays it and I tease her about it, but I can tell it really bothers her. Her insecurity not my teasing (before I get blasted)! With that said, it is my hope that she knows I love her, in and out. We were enemies as teenagers, friends during highschool, and then I married her while she was in college (she still finished). She started at 180 and has gained a lot of weight since then due to her lifestyle, children, and lifestyle. While I do appreciate breasts in all their beauty, I love my wife more. When her mother was diagnosed with cancer, the inevitable conversation came up, if she has breast cancer would I still find her attractive. Yes. A million times, yes. If he said, he is behind you no matter what, then believe it. Love is a by product of faith and trust. Invest it in him and get back your return.

    I'd advise you to stop teasing her about it if you know it really bothers her. :huh:

    Even if you lose it, he could discover that he likes a different part of you once the shape of it changes anyway. He may think he only likes your breasts, but with your body changing you could end up with really nice legs or something that he didn't realize he would like. Plus, he should be more concerned with your health than something superficial.

    As you lose weight your proportion changes so as your waist, hips, etc. shrink your boobs will become more prominent even if they are smaller. In other words, if the rest of you is smaller the boobs will seem bigger by comparison, even if they are smaller than they were before.

    You have to do what's best for you. If he doesn't like the new, healthy you, maybe you need to find someone who didn't know you when you were heavy and is okay with your new shape and smaller boobs. :heart:

    My boyfriend feels the exact same. When I started losing weight i was a 34DDD. Not sure what I am now, but I'm definitely smaller. My bf is now joking about sabotaging me. lol

    I know. It's my natural reaction to dramatic situations to try and alleviate with humor. It seems to be a hit and miss philosophy.

    I don't lose my chest as I lose weight. It depends on what kind of tissue is dominant -- fat or mammary. Exe cises can help perk them up, but nothing you do can top you from losing them if that's your body type.

    This

    Yes they are her's
    and Yes she has to do what's right.

    But that doesn't mean he is or has to be okay with it. He is entitled to his opinion and tastes.

    I can tell you right now if my boyfriend got fat like- seriously fat- it would be over. I'm just completely not attracted to that type of life style behavior and body type.

    If her boyfriend is disrespectful to her or leaves her because she loses her boobs as she loses weight, she probably is better off without him, anyway.

    And this.

    There's a world of difference between someone whose overall unhealthy lifestyle is a source of conflict and a healthy lifestyle causing a reduction of one particular feature over wheich she doesn't have any control.

    And yes, OP, you can do targeted chest and pectoral exercises as you lose that will both make what you have "perkier" and probably make you more comfortable.

    And, yes, men will touch areas of our bodies we're not entirely happy about at present. He's a man and he gets the provilege of touching a woman, he's just going to enjoy it, especially if he already likes a whole lot of other things. Who knows, if you lose a bit up top, he might like it better.

    Agreed, he sounds like a good guy in that he will support you in whatever you do. Don't worry too much! If your boobs get smaller, guess what? Your waist is getting smaller, too! Proportionally you're most likely not going to have tiny boobs if yu didn't start out that way....although this is coming from a girl who used to wear a "barely B" when they still made that size in my brand- my husband always says I he'll support no matter what, but he'll be sad if my butt disappears.

    Good luck with your weight loss and I'm sure your BF will love the added confidence and continue loving you and your boobs.

    THIS. He loves you, not your boobs. He just likes them. Even if they get smaller, he still loves you.

    Mine were 34 DD before I lost 10 lbs, now they are 32 D-DD. (irritating that they are stuck between cup sizes). Everyone loses fat differently, so there's no way to know. Just lose your weight. He loves you and supports you, so don't worry about it.

    Redirect it. Start making jokes about how nice her *kitten* is instead.

    This thread makes me glad I married a man who doesn't have overly specific ideas of what is and is not physically attractive.

    Um, no. The breasts are suspended by the Cooper's ligaments, no muscles involved in breast support (unfortunately). If you can build up your pecs, they might appear slightly larger in shirts.
