Question for the larger ladies

Options
So, I'm currently 194 and in a D cup. I'm wondering if any other women have found a good sports bra that is actually made to fit a larger frame and breast size? I found one at Walmart, but it really doesn't hold the girls as much as they need for jumping etc. I've checked at some of out sporting good stories, but I'm just not small enough for their sizes.

what kind and where did you find it?

    Enell.com

    It's worth the money

    Now a 38F. That's right, my band size is smaller, but my cup size went up because I've lost 50 pounds and NO boob.

    you're lucky, with d cup you have many choices for excellent high impact bras : champion, goddess, lululemon, moving comfort, under armor, elomi all come in D cup, as well as the other like enell and shock absorber. you can find them online at various locations (barenecessiies.com is a good start)

    I used to wear two together. It made it a lot easier especially when I first started running.

    glad to see i'm not the only one! enell is abou to be the only choice for me since you can send in your measurements and get a custom made one. i'm currently 34 I/J and i'm JUST at the cusp of being able to wear a size 2. if i lose more in the band and nothing in the cup like i have been, then there's no way i'd be able to squeeze the twins into a size 1 :laugh:

    I managed to find an Enell bra at a second-hand shop. https://www.enell.com to buy online.
    I'm a 36DD (at 220lbs) which is a size 3 Enell, and nothing bounces! Love it.

    38 DD, and I go for the cheap solution and wear the Old Navy "compression" tops in XL. They squish everything down so much that there's no jiggle! Might need to change this strategy in the future :P

    I am a 40DDD and I found a compression tank at JCPenney that I love. Very comfortable and the girls stay put.

    The Moving Comfort Fiona is the business. It's the first bra I have ever owned that holds everything in place.

    Mine are not as large as some, but I wear my normal bra underneath, and then a crop top over the top and they seem to sit quite well :)

    I gave up on trying to find any bras in a store. Too few sizes and choices. Try online at Bare Necessities, or do a search. You have to try various ones until you find the perfect fit. It took me 3 different bras until I found one that is perfect for me. Anita 5529. Its a pretty bra with great support.
