    I've always had b-cups from when I was younger, through weight gain and loss and gain and loss again =D The measurement of my bra band changes, but these girls stay the same cup size. I'm very blessed in that regards. I do notice as someone else said that when I lose, they seem more "perky" but I think that's because I"m losing weight in my gut and therefore they are hanging out just like they were meant to.

    I have friends who, as they gained weight, they gained cup sizes in their chests and as they are losing weight, they are getting smaller.

    I definitely think it has a lot to do with weight training vs. straight fat loss - if you're concerned, definitely work on your chest to build up that muscle and give yourself the best advantage ever.
    "Anyone else feel like it's waaay more "acceptable" for a girl to be 5-10 lbs overweight and carry some extra baggage in the middle when she has larger boobs? "

    Yes. Yes, I do. I'm 5'9" and have noticed that when I was healthy - around 150 pounds - I got worse remarks than i do today being as large as I am. *eyeroll* It seemed everyone had something to say, and I was a size 8/10.

    I went down two cup sizes (Lost 45+ pounds). They are totally deflated now. :(

    My boyfriend is a sad panda. I love them small actually, but could do without all the loose skin. : /


    Edit: To add the *cup

    I went from a DD down to a C..... I'm back to where I was in high school. Kinda upsetting, but now my shirts are all medium instead of large - and THAT makes me happy.

    Worst case, you visit Victoria's Secret and get a miracle bra.

    At 156, I had one medium C and one small C, which I would love on my current body. However, 14 pounds later, they've shrunk to one large B and one regular B (hooray for asymmetry!) and I'm not a fan. If I get to my goal weight, I can foresee them becoming large As, and I don't like that. But, that's just what I find attractive. I want my old boobs on my current body, it just seems way more proportional :(

    Yep, the boobs do get smaller. But guess what?!?

    Guys like boobs whether they are big or small!

    And being healthy and slimmer is better than being boobalicious.

    :D

    I've experienced both. When I was in my 20's and I lost a ton of weight, they went down a size at least, but this last time (somewhere) in my 30's, I have only lost the cup stayed pretty much the same, but the number got smaller. Made my C/D look not only larger, but much perkier! For one thing, the better fitting, more shaping types of bras fit better now :flowerforyou:

    I think it's genetics...

    First time I lost a bunch of weight I went from a D to a DD... Band size stayed about the same, maybe lost an inch, wasn't exercising.

    They have never gone back down. I come from a line of well endowed women on both sides of my family. The only issues I have when losing weight is my back can't keep up with them.

    I couldn't tell by looking at myself that I was loosing weight. Then I realized that my boobs were shrinking in direct proportion to my waist. Bummer. There's not much there to shrink :-(

    Mine haven't really "gone" but they've lose a lot of "volume" and shape. I was a 38G at my heaviest and I'm a 34E now and they look...Well..Sad.

    well, I have pretty decent sized boobs for my size but they did shrink quite a bit with the weight loss BUT they do seem a bit more appealing now.....as in they are more perky and where they belong now....I don't seem to trip over them quite as often! LOL!
    So, yeah, they shrink a bit but for me I didn't mind too much.

    Oh I am waaaaaay ahead of you there! The first time I tried it on I felt super silly, but now I can't even leave the house without it on =P
    My friends call it "false advertising" but the only guy I care to show them to (my boyfriend) already knows the dirty truth so it's all good =P
