    I would love mine to go down but I want my waist to go down first. I have always been atleast a D cup since 7th grade and I am currently a DD and would love them to go down so I don't have to wear super expensive extra supportive bras to work out just so I don't poke an eye out. I would also like to be able to buy shirts and dresses and not have to have them altered just so they look good. I don't know if I could suffer going below a C though as they have always been my "go to" accessory going out on the town.

    Cocoa Butter lotion is fantastic too. Keeps the stretch marks minimized if not away!

    I just had to post on this one, because I left the gym about an hour ago and just got out the shower. While I was looking in the mirror, I was thinking, "man, where did they go?", I had to adjust my straps so they cups wouldn't sag. I was happy and comfortable with my C, now, I am afraid to find out what they are, but I will work to perk them up. I've noticed that already, and I guess the perkiness is making up for the lost, but I thought my size fitted me so well. :ohwell:

    Maybe, this should be the one area we can spot reduce or control. :laugh:

    Don't tell my boyfriend, but you guys can have some of my boobs if you want!! :laugh: He says they're "perfect" (of course :laugh: ) but I'd be willing to down-size just a little bit...
  • I can't wait for my boobs to shrink. I'm a 38E now and I really hope to get down to a D or a C when I lose this weight.. Maybe even a B. I'm pretty sick of the girls at this stage. They're always getting in the way!

    skin snaps back as you stay at a lower weight. At first they may seem saggy, but as you maintain your new lower weight, the skin tightens back up.

    and the alternative (staying fat to have big boobs) is unacceptable!

    I'll take the offer for extras!!!!!

    Having gained 20, I'm a nice full and even perky C.. woohoo!!!! Haven't had that since pregnancy. When I drop the weight though... man, baseballs in a tube-sock. Aweful! I'll be lucky to keep it to a B, in fact.

    Part of the perk, btw, isn't just muscle underneat but also how you're built. The "base" can have different configurations which can contribute to sag or firm appearances. Wide bases, obviously, will lend itself to perk, narrow will lend itself to droop - unless you get enough fat in there to fill everything in. Kinda' like a water balloon. Guess what camp I'm in?? :brokenheart: :sad: :brokenheart: :sad: :grumble:

    If anyone wants to share, I'll take some! I've always been a A cup, and as soon as I lose they shrink even more. Doing chest exercises do help, not only do they "perk up" whats left but your posture improves and you flaunt a little better. Plus I'll be glad to fit back into my cute 34 A bras instead of my falling apart 36 As.

    Also, the best lotion I have found (hard to find though) is Dove's Firming Cream with Seaweed Extract. If you can find it, try it. I use it on my thighs and stomach and it helps A LOT.

    I know we can't pick and choose where the weight comes from... but my girls are shrinking and I'm wondering if there is any way to prevent this from continuing as I lose more weight. Any tips would be greatly appreciated if there are some suggestions to focus on the mid section and keep the loss from coming from the breasts?
    omg...haha...i was gonna start my own boob thread but decided to search and see if someone has mentioned this very thing!!! :flowerforyou:

    k...gonna go read now!!! haha...:drinker:

    I suffer from the same problem. by breasts are really uneven, and when I lose weight the first thing that happens is the smaller one gets even smaller. Then the next to go is my butt, where I have nothing to lose, its flat as a board.

    OMG U ARE LUCKY :grumble: MY *kitten* JUST WONT GET ANY SMALLER!!! NO MATTER HOW HARD I TRY!! :sad:

    you know they do shrink, but you can always get a good bra :) My friends are all fooled, they say, how do your girls still look so great? A good bra does the trick.
    My question is, does anyone have any tricks to getting rid of the extra skin and fat storage on my belly (from weight loss but mostly from pregnancy I think)? If I didn't have that I would be golden for bathing suit season.
    Arbonne has a new product that helps firm up skin that I may try, but does anyone have any secret foods or exercised that have helped them?

    I will admit that the real turning point for me was when DH gave me a Vic Secret gift card for Mother's Day last summer (I had asked for new bras since I was done BF'ing). When I went into VS to get fitted and purchase the bras, even though my son had been weaned for almost a year, THEY STILL DIDN'T MAKE MY SIZE! WTH!:noway: I measured in at approximately a 44DDD. :huh: At my largest (while pregnant and BF'ing) I was a US 44G+. Eeesh. I am now, FINALLY, getting too small for my 42D bras. I have decided that my reward for reaching my 40lb goal will be to get a few new bras.:bigsmile: I don't know what my size will be, but I KNOW I'll love it!
