Smaller Breast With Weight Loss?

Saddest. Thread. Ever.

LOL,, you cracked me up!

You can't spot reduce fat, unfortunately. When I first started losing weight, I was worried about losing my boobs because they were a nice size when I started. They have got smaller, but they've shrunk in proportion with the rest of me, so they kind of just look the same! Hope that helps.. if you have naturally big breasts then you always will have, unfortunately.

I started at 70kg wearing a perfectly fitted 34GG (16GG).
I am nearly at my goal weight of 55kg and now wear a 30GG (8GG) sometimes a 30G (8G) if I'm lucky.

The back size is the measurement of your ribcage in inches and the cup size is the proportional difference in size between that ribcage and your breast circumference.

I think (from memory) a G cup is about a 10" difference between ribcage and breast measurement. Regardless the thing I learned is that I never lost my cup measurement.

I lost weight proportionally from my breasts and around my ribs.

Some days I find that extremely disheartening. Then my friends tell me that my boobs don't look big at all now. It's true: they are much smaller and easier to manage now.

I hear you regarding the expense though!

*Edit* Just finished reading this thread and am disturbed by all this talk of back aches! I'm happy to say my boobs don't give me any pain front or back!

Please, please read this site: http://www.thinandcurvy.com/2010/10/how-to-measure-your-bra-size-correct.html

80% of the support from your bra comes from the bra band, not the cup or straps. Make sure it is right and it is tight! While I was losing weight I had to throw out all my bras because wearing even something that *almost* fits isn't supportive or comfortable. Rubs like crazy too.

Also it's much less expensive to buy large cup size/small band bras online. Find your size and shop around. Each one of my bras costs me about $40AUD now but if I were to buy from a specialty store it's closer to $100AUD.

I was an F cup and now I have lost 40lbs I am a DD cup. Feels great, and I think i will still lose a little more too.

As some of us lose weight, our band size goes down, on short frames, our boobs now even look bigger, where is the justice in this???

I lost 20 pounds, went down in band size, may be one cup size, now at 142 at am a 32 GG, my sports bra is looser, but my every day bra still fits well, cannot wait to get into a smaller cup, hoping that my last 20 will get me down to a C??? I know wishful thinking, but one must dream big or small in this case!

My fantasies
1) go bra less(and look supported)
2) my boobs dont enter before i enter a room
3) no shoulder, neck or back strain
4) wear those cute bra's that close in the front

have a few more afraid to post on the web, for fear that i will get bashed!!! lmao

I was a E at 187 lbs and at 154 lbs I am DD

ckkh

I was a 36DD at my highest weight of 194lbs. I am currently a 34C at 145lbs. I LOVE being able to buy "off the rack" (pardon the pun), bras.

graysmom2005

I have no boobs now. LOL! I was a 36C and now I'm a 34 A/B

I had a 51" chest when I started this journey. I am 97 pounds lighter and down to a 36B (for barely there). It is wonderful! You can do it!

FelizMi

Yes! My boobies have shrunk! :-( But, my overall shape looks better as long as I have my underwire bra on, but when I take them off, my babies drop, lol. I was almost 400lbs at my heaviest and aI think a 50D. I've lost about 140lbs and now I'm a 38DD, so the overall size and mass has shrunk, but they stick out farther and look better in my bra and clothes. Just not so much naked, but with that amount of weight loss, loose skin, it's just going to be saggy. :-(

I used to be a B and I am hoping with all of my might to get back there. I would think they wouldn't hang as low if they're that small. :laugh: But I figure I'll just pick them up and tuck them into a pretty bra. :bigsmile:

kiltbunny

I was happy to drop down while bra shopping this weekend! I was in a 40D and have now gone into a much more manageable 36C. tbh, I think my cup size is about the same and just the circumference around my chest is less.

I hope all you girls with the bigger ta-ta's and want to be smaller get that. I can't imagine the stress on your back with a topload like that. :noway:

julia80

I'm hoping I don't lose any boob, I'm only just a C now

rockstarginaa

I went from a 36D to a 32/34 C. I would love to be a B, but I'm almost at goal

dmpizza

and I'm almost positive that my breast size will decrease,

"Almost positive' Its a certainty. Imagine if they didn't!

Good Luck, I am sure you will look great.

That's the first place I gain/lose weight! When I lost weight a couple years ago (from 140 to 120 pounds) I went from a D to a B! Now I'm back at 140 and a D cup. This time I wish the D cup would stay and I would lose my belly fat!!

So, when i lost all my weight the first time, I think I was wearing the wrong sized bra, because I thought I was a 42DD. But then I got fit because of my weight loss and went down to a 38, but still DD.

I didn't even consider that side effect, but it was great. I don't understand the fascination with large breasts (I mean, I understand why men like them, but I don't understand why a woman would want DD's). They're uncomofrtable and they get in the way.

Amen...

itontae

at 135 and 5'4" i was a 32 J.

In the uk we are fortunate to have the most wondertful large size bra specialist shop and I had lots of great bras that I am looking forward to wearing again.

I hit 190 recently and my breasts are just preposterous. I can't wait for them to shrink.

LaSweetMini

At 198lbs I was a 42DD. Now at 160 I am a 38D!

rayzerwolf

So far i have lost 40+ pounds since my heavest and I haven't lost any in cup size but i have lost 4 or 5 inches around my chest. I just used the same bras as i got bigger but put extentions in them now i dont need the extentions and have even begun using the second notch.

Maggieq87

The only place *I* can see a difference in my body are my breasts and i can see my collar bones now.. They have gotten much smaller. No that I'm compaining. My friend was 180 and DD and now is 135 and a C cup.

Minnesnowtagurl

At my high I was about a DD now a comfortable D some C's depending on how sexy the bra is. ; )
I also had a reduction 4 years ago. from a G to a D :noway: (Gained a bit of weight and went up to a DD)

Serialdieter

When I have lost weight in the past I have never lost weight of my breasts I lost about 41lbs 7 years ago and lost of my back but was still an e cup ??
