losing weight :D = losing boob :/

mynameiscarrie

I lost a lot of weight in my boobs...I went from a 36 D to a 32 B...almost an A...I don't know how to get that much boobie back so I just bought a padded bra lol...cheating, I know, but I feel weird without boobs.

I went from from 34FF to 30G to 30E
Do strength training like chest press, even push ups help!

i lost two bra sizes....sucks but true!

Isn't cup size dependent on band size? I wear a 32D and the volume of the cup is equivalent to a 34C or a 36B.
My bra size hasn't changed but I have only lost 8 lbs. I also find my boobs get fuller before my period.

38D -> 38B/36C (depending on the bra) but I lost ALL the perkiness:sad: ...
It's almost to the point where you can see the muscles *under* them, but they pretty much look like rocks in socks. Push up bras don't really work for me either. They just make them fold:grumble:. Not at all attractive. Without a bra, they are completely depressing and I'm DEFINITELY considering surgery when I get to goal, but I've never had kids and might want to at some point, so I don't know how that would work. :ohwell:

Edit: Oh, and I do chest exercises at the gym all the time... no improvement. I think it's a loose skin problem. If anyone has a solutions to *those*, let me know...

Big boobs on a fat chick are like abs on a skinny guy.

They don't count.

I disagree... I am 42DD and was 34DD at my smallest. One of my besties weighs the same as me in the same size clothes but she is a 42B so has to get extenders for bras. When I was nursing after having my children bras were nearly impossible to come by for the size my boobs were. So, hopefully you didn't mean to offend any one, but I was a little offended by it.

Right there with y'all. Went from 38C to 36B. I wear a sport bra most of the time, as I don't have a regular bra that fits anymore, and the band seems fine while the cup area is still a little big :sad: I've born 5 children, and I.am.done! I'm hoping breast augmentation is in my future! :happy: I have noticed that chest exercises do improve my chest area but don't seem to improve my boobs, either! I use a door mounted resistance band "gym" & 1 thing I do is butterflies.

yup...I was a 42DD. at this point, about a 38C. prolly get smaller still. that was the FIRST place I lost inches. thanks for the weights/exercise tips, I lack upper body strength, so this is another motivator to get on those weights.

I would love to have this happen to me. I hate my boobs! They are always in the way and I wouldn't care if I was flat chested!!

I am hoping to loose some boob, I'm a 32 FF/G they really get in the way....

amybell68

I say adios to mine!!! I am not sad about them leaving, but like you don't want them to hang low....so I've been doing lots of extra chest exercises!!

Hi,

First I would like to offer this comment -

Breasts do not have muscles in them. They have ligaments and connective tissue. Muscles are in the chest behind the breasts.

So doing exercises such as push-ups, dumbbell chest presses and fly’s will help strengthen, tone and condition the muscles but will not have a great effect on the actual breast size.

When a person is losing weight it comes from all areas of the body so unfortunately we cannot control which areas it will decrease and which ones it won't.

Does that help?

thank you everyone! make me feel better that im not alone on this. i hope adding strength training will make them look better.

I started losing weight a few months ago, and my boobs, normally 38F, fell flat.... I started taking a Birth Control PIll and a nice side effect has been I have boobs again! We will see if they stay full and firm as I continue my weight loss journey.

PoochPottery

A good bra! I went down to a 34 A :sad: Just went out and got some good push up bras!

mimstero

I am just like you!!! I have lost about 26 pounds, and seriously, my boobs are gone. My husband says I look like a preteen now.
I would love to get a boob job, but I am 43 and don't think that would be the best use of my money. Darn!!!
I also do a decent amount of weight lifting and pushups, but that just makes them a little perkier but it doesn't increase their size.

stephabef

Dealing with the same thing. Seems I may not be a D cup for much longer and may need to drop from 32.

Ha that kinda made me laugh, but some truth to it. A 6'1" and 150 lb dude with a cut ripped tummy isn't impressive since hes already so thin. But if hes a 6'1 and 238 lb linebacker and still ripped then your thinking thats impressive because that boy has got the muscle of a gorilla but still kept a lean shape.

I don't mind losing some boobs when losing weight. My back feels so much better and a cute simple shirt doesn't look trashy because my boobs are popping out. I am 5'0 so when i was a 32D i looked silly with such huge boobs.

Rocks in socks bahahahahaha Mine have looked at the ground without a bra for years! I list perky 2 kids ago and was a YOUNG mom LOL Underwire and Lane Bryant are my best boob friends :laugh:

Here I am with more herby suggestions.

You can massage nightly with fenugreek. Extract is best, but you can also use fenugreek powder. Helps for firmness like you wouldn't believe!

Greenbush is the company I buy from, but you can probably find it at Whole Foods or a natural store.

It's worked for me.

I'm happy to lose some of mine...currently 16G...they are big and heavy....looking forward to them shrinking somewhat, and then buying something supportive to keep em up! ;-)

STORY OF MY LIFE. I work out like crazy and I've lost 20 lbs, 17 of which from my boobs (I'm sure) lol

Interesting. I have some left from my breast feeding days. I'll have to try. Also I saw they started carrying some at Walmart.

Push ups without a doubt...proper ones. pec dec, bent over flys, weighted punches....

spacevulture

Yeah, there's only so much that chest exercises can do. At a certain point, you really are just left with a lot of skin.
You know how in the 40 year old virgin, steve carell character talks about how boobs feel like bags of sand?
That's kind what mine have ended up looking like after losing 56lbs. Sacs of nothingness. So sad.
There's only waiting for skin to tighten back up (all areas) and...mastopexy, which I plan on getting once I reach my ultimate goal weight. I think I've gone from a 38C to a 36B or something like that...I haven't gone shopping since 30lbs ago and I haven't bought a bra since I was a 38C so I don't know my sizes for ANYTHING.
Then again, I never did have perky boobs to start with :P
