    I'm currently a 42DDD, and I am hoping they'll shrink to DD-D range. I don't think that even at my GW they'll get much smaller than that.

    I'm just worried about whether they'll end up all "dangly" or something. :frown:

    Baby it is just what you were blessed with I think. I went from DDD to a D and I have lost over 100 pounds, I would love to be a C, but I am not sure that will happen. But I feel ya, not sure the solution except to make the best of your assets....sorry:(

    I used to be a DD, now I'm maybe a (small) C. If you lose enough weight they'll shrink.



    Not necessarily true.....

    I was going to say that, too. I've gone from a 46F to a 42G or H since I've lost 62 pounds. Granted, I've been overweight my entire adult life, but I don't really see them shrinking too much.

    From what I understand: if your breasts are larger because you are at an unhealthy weight, then you will lose more weight from there as you reduce your weight. But if your breasts are larger naturally, even when you are at a normal/thin weight, then you'll lose less weight from there.
    I may be wrong, but after reading multiple stories and hearing women talk about their weight loss, this is the trend that I've observed.

    Of course, remember that breasts are made of fat tissue, so you'll lose a bit from there anyhow.

    I assure you, you are lovely, no matter what.

    I had B cups 35 lbs ago, and I still have B cups. I am not a busty lady, but I wish you the best on your weight loss. :)

    Alright, so im one of those busty girls. I nate it when i find a perfect dress and have to get a size bigger to fit my "girls." Looking for support by other women like this & if i can help decrease my size. i have lost 40 pounds, but only went from DD to D. Ugh. Thanks:)

    I actually had a medically necessary breast reduction years back, but I was a DDD before that. I also had to buy clothes larger to accommodate my chest, but at your size, a good minimizer might make it so that you don't have to. I used to use one by Wacoal that I'd recommend you try. They're a bit pricey, but you could get away with just one or two, and just wear them with certain outfits. That's what I'd do, if I were in your place.

    ETA: Whether we lose there or not is very individual. I had lost over 40 before the surgery, and didn't lose any from my chest.
  • :/ I have the same problem! I lost over 30lbs and they only went from a 36DD to a 32DD. I want to be a C cup already!

    Yep, I wear a 28 pants (so like a US size 6 I think) and then I wear a 10 or 12 dress for my boobs (but I also have broad shoulders and a pretty big rib cage) it's so annoying, especially when all these things are like "drop a dress size" like I can lose weight and drop pants sizes but still no dress size

    I went from 190 lbs to 150 lbs a few yrs ago and went from a DDD to a D. Right now I'm 179 at a DDD..and aiming for 140lbs this time around and hoping to get back to the D! I would feel weird with small boobs...I wouldn't want to be smaller than a D ..maybe C at the smallest... I love being busty just not DDD busty!! LOL .:tongue:

    I've lost weight several times over the years and my chest is the last place I lose and even though I've been close to my healthy weight, I've never been below a D. I'm currently an H and man is that hard to buy for. I wish they would shrink first. But for me, I lose it in my face first. my legs second then my belly, then my butt and then my breast. I hate how my body works. I'm actually more proportionate at this weight. Too bad it's unhealthy!

    I think it is important to note that the number indicates your rib size and the letter is the boob size. So, weight loss will generally be seen (for me anyway) in the number first, because if you are lifting, your are building your pectoral muscles which may make sit seem like your boobs are the same size. However, their shape has probably changed, which is why you need to be fitted every 6 months- especially with weight loss. The tissue changes and your support requirements change.

    This is very much a "the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence" kind of issue.
