for the ladies! a crazy theory

ok so i have come up with a new theory, and i am wondering if there is anyone with biology experience or anyone at all who can back me up, or tell me if i am way off base. and this pertains to breast size in ladies. so here goes...lol
so basically i have always had small breasts, barely an A. then i gained a ton of weight and went up to a nice healthy solid B. now usually, when someone loses weight, they complain that the first place they lose weight is their breasts and rear. now i am hispanic so i have always been blessed with hips and a plump rear even when i was super skinny.
so flash forward to now, 3 months into my paleo adventure, and almost 30 lbs down (27 to be exact) i am still a healthy, solid B cup, and my rear hasn't really shrunk (HOORAAAAY!!!)
so my theory is this: healthy fat in a female is located in the breasts, butt and outer thys (hips) that is why these parts are sexually attractive biologically yada yada yada. thats not a theory that is just biological fact. but my theory is that when you go on a conventional diet, you are limiting your intake of healthy fats. so therefore, when you start to diet and exercise, your body feeds off of its own store of healthy fats, ie; breasts, butt and hips. therefore you shrink a cup size usually. now with paleo/primal, you are eating PLENTY of healthy fats, so your body doesnt need to feed off its own store. therefore, when it needs energy, it uses the "unhealthy store" ie; stomach, face, arms, inner thys etc;
has anyone else had this experience??? or am i just that lucky? lol. does this make any sense at all or am i just reading too much into it. i know everyone is different, but i am just wondering if this makes sense at all in a very general way.
Thanks!

I can't speak to your reasoning, but I'm in the same boat. I've lost some weight, gained some muscle and kept my boobs and my *kitten*.0

I saw a whole thread dedicated to this at MDA a little while back. Many women saying despite their losses, their bra size staying the same.
I think your theory has merit!0 -
sorry for jumping in non-scientifically, but agree - those would be the best places for healthy fats.0

Yup there is something to this... my chest has reduced by 10cm (about 4 inches), but my cup size has not changed!! Woohoo!!
Glad my tummy is flattening and not my boobs!!0 -
