My stomach and theighs are shrinking but my breasts are staying the same. I know most people love breasts but I hate them. Theyre heavy and just generally annoying. Is there any kind of excersises I could do to make my breasts smaller? It sounds so dumb but I've always hated having them and would like to shrink from a C cup to about a B.

    You cannot spot reduce. They may get smaller as you lose weight, but they might not.

    I'll trade you. I seem to have a case of amazing shrinking boob disease, and I'd really rather keep mine! =(

    Wht kind of exercise are you doing? You might be building muscle instead of losing fat? I know for me personally, my left one is a cup smaller than my right one now (more noticable than your average differences) since I started working out :/ It's the first place I lost weight though. I just started the 30 day shred and before that was just walking/jogging. Nothing fancy or targeted.
  • i wish i had your problem. i feel like im losing my breasts before anything else, and fully intend to get a boob job once i hit my goal weight and maintain for a while...

    Hi - that's the last place you would lose the fat if any to lose. However, if you do upper body exercise you would tone them up and make it look smaller rather than flabby. try chest press, butterflies, push up is great for them especially and works out your stomach muscles at the same time.

    good luck.

    Keep losing - at a certain point, they will probably shrink some. On me, they're among the last to go. But it has a lot to do with your particular body.
  • For me it's like my body was always saving on "advertising" first -- my breasts are the VERY first thing to shrink, before anything else ... Like it's been said before: It might or it might not happen that their size will decrease -- but I suppose it's kind of likely to happen when you lose noticeable amounts of weight.

    If you've experienced the opposite -- :-/ then that might be just the way it goes with your body.

    Write "I love you" on each one with an eyeliner -- as long as you can't do anything about them, they will be there. And I bet they are really pretty ;-)

    Good luck!!!

    I am a size D and would love to be a small C again but it only happens for me if I get tiny. Some would say I have been blessed.. I would say I have been cursed.. I HATE THEM!!

    I work my upper body with weights do pushups... at least they may pick up some LOL

    I too want to reduce mine.
    Your body decides which order the fat is taken from, there is nothing much we can do. Running should do it.
    We have to lose the weight overall, then they will shrink.

    Was there a particular exercise you were doing to lose around the back? That is where I am trying to lose. I am def an apple shape and I am trying to lose across my back and under my breasts. :smile:

    I'm only about 5lbs away from my goal weight and I'm a 32DDD. The 32 is new but the DDD isn't...
  • Hi, I wish I was at your size right now.... I'm currently a little less than a k cup and my thighs are slim....it's always been that way for me.
    only since I had my son nearly four years ago, and my breast just grew and got out of hand.....anyway, I have found that the only thing that is working for me is constant fat burning exercises, and it's reducing the size of my breast, you can see from my profile how big they use to be, but I'm using that image as a constant reminder I've why I'm doing this. I've gone from 15st to 13st 9lbs and counting. fat burning exercises really to help you achieve what you want.
  • Me also :(
    I hate them and I wona lose them

    no it's not building muscle..you don't do that on a deficet esp as a woman.

    To the OP...it took almost 50lbs for me to get back to my B cup...from a D...I'm lovin' it.

    Now mind you I buy a C cup if it's a push up bra.

    I don't think there is much you can do about it - your body decides where you lose the weight and it always seems to be from the places you don't want it to go! It's funny that in the past when I have dieted (and I have dieted a LOT in the past) my boobs ALWAYS disappeared first which was so frustrating as I have always had very big thighs and hips and the weight would just never budge from that area no matter how hard I tried. This time round and for the first time ever all the weight loss has gone from my hips and thighs and nothing from my boobs and upper body - I suppose it must be something to do with the menopause. I guess I can at least look forward to slim legs LOL

    At 24 lbs lost, I went down one bra cup size. Although you can't spot reduce, doing pec workouts can help the girls sit a little higher. Sooner or later your chest will probably decrease.

    I am the same exact way. When I got pregnant and gained a bunch of weight, i went up to a D from a size B. I love being a size B. So far I have not lost any in that area. I am hoping I do though!

    Ah, the wonders of genetics. I lost 50 lbs and went from a C cup to an A cup. Now, I just find other parts of me I like better and shrug it off.

    Also, omg zombie thread. Wonder how her genetics played out?

    When I lost weight 2 yrs ago I did not change bra size. I gained a little weight back and started working out again concentrating on losing body fat % more than watching the scale. My size is starting to decrease. It may take some lbs before you notice but if you keep reducing your body fat you will see a difference. You need to lose overall.

    You are young and your breasts are likely breast tissue instead of fat. Don't worry, when you get to my age, they are all fat and when you lose weight they will shrink, likely more than you want them to.

    Solutions: Great supportive bra (search the forums, lots of rec's) or surgery.
