    I have always been busty, and despite breastfeeding three babies, and for almost a year for two of them, and losing the weight, I am still quite busty, at a 32GG, I have to say they are not as pert as they once were, but they are not half bad for a woman my age with the weight loss and breastfeeding, I am not sure if breast implants are something I would consider as I am so top heavy as it is, but I would like a bit of a general tidy up, although I am told by the man in my life that they are fine as they are and as he is a leg man anyway, so is not that bothered.
  • I loved being preggo that was the only time I had any boobs,at all,its so sad......Anyway I am not at my goal weight but Iam in favor of anything that makes you feel better and if thats what it takes thats what I will do.I allways wanted to have big ones any way!!LOL

    thanks everyone for your honest replies :happy: yes, my boobs definitely changed after both pregnancies, i don't think its because of losing weight at all...i went from a 36C to a DD and now im at 34C. i always told myself i would never ever get a boob job but now im considering it. it would really help boost my self esteem and maybe i wouldn't mind taking my clothes off in front of my husband with the light on for a change. LOL im kidding!!!.....kind of. :grumble:

    Hubby is a boob man, for sure. But he has told me several times that as long as there is enough there that he could smother between them, he is happy. I'm betting your hubby feels the same way...

    I have an 11 month old little boy. I'm just half a pound away from my goal weight, and my boobs have gotten a lot smaller. I wouldn't sat they're pancakes, but they've gone down a full cup size and are a little saggy and sad, lol. Eh, whatev. I'd rather have mosquito bites than the fat @ss and thunder thighs I just lost, so it's a trade-off. :smile:
  • It's funny how so many guys are going to click on this just because of the subject.

    Anyway, so I'm wondering how many women here have reached their goal weight and lost their boobs in the process?! I haven't reached my goal weight yet and my boobs are already......not how they were before. Lol. I'm in my early 20's and I have 2 kids - a toddler and a 5 month old. I breastfed my first son for 2 weeks and could not continue. After the milk went away, my boobs started sagging a little bit but it was still like, eh, okay. With my 2nd son, I breastfed him for 3 months and stopped. Now my boobs are these deflated, ugly looking pancakes and it makes me feel like less of a woman. It just does NOT look good. I'm thinking that once I reach my goal (35lbs to go), they're not gonna look any prettier. So I'm wondering if anyone else who HAS reached their goal weight, has had any problems with boob deflation (lol) or if they noticed any change at all...? Has anyone gotten a breast lift or gotten implants after they achieved their goal weight? Would you consider getting implants/breast lift if this DID happen to you?

    Btw I'm not a superficial person, I hate how fake some breast augmentations can look but at the same time, I'm considering it because I don't want to spend the rest of my life with pancakes hanging off my chest.

    Aren't you glad you read this, guys? :flowerforyou:

    Its sad but you are doomed! I too have 2 kids, and am in my early 20's. Lifting heavy will "perk" them up a little bit but nothing exciting. I have flirted with the idea of implants but I dont know, I am with the father of my children, he loves me a lot no matter what and I think I'm too scared to go through with the surgery. I currently have a size c but they are the weird deflated pancake look

    I find it more amusing that so many women would be interested in a topic titled "boobs".

    When I see a post "boobs" on a fitness board, I know what they are talking about. I knew there wouldn't be pics.

    I haven't lost mine yet. Probably I would readjust my goals if I found I was losing more boob than I wanted- I'm already at a healthy BF%- I wouldn't want to cut so far that I lost all my boobs or booty. I think it's important to reassess goals as you go along.

    That said, I think strength training makes the boobs you've got look better. Bench Presses and pushups (as a part of a balanced strength program) FTW.

    no where near my goal weight and i describe mine as deflated :(
  • I don't have any children so I can't relate there but I am 18 pounds down and I am still were I started at 40DD. Everyone keeps telling me that I will lose them but so far I still have them.

    Yep, pregnancy totally wrecked my boobs. I was a perky 34B before I got pregnant. Went up to a 38D during pregnancy and breastfeeding. After breastfeeding I was still a 38D but they definitely deflated. Since I started losing weight my band size has gone down so I'm now a 36DD but they're still just as saggy as ever. Honestly I hate them. I want a breast lift so badly but it'll probably never happen, the money just isn't there. So I just try to pretend that they don't exist, ha.
  • regarding the subject line, i figured guys would be curious enough to click on it even if i wrote ''boob deflation'' or ''implants''. women click cuz they probably know already exactly what im writing about lol. sorry guys :tongue:

    Hey girls,

    First off, I'm a boob fan too, I can't help it, guy thing I guess

    That said, and maybe this is different for other guys, but I bet a lot would agree with me...

    Two things

    1. Boob size doesn't define you
    2. I'd rather see you fit with A or B, or whatever, cups, over 50 pounds over weight with DD's

    Just some brutal honesty, and I know it sucks.... We notice the 50lbs before the A's on a fit chick

    (I know I'm setting myself up to get flamed here. Please know I'm speaking from a gut reaction genetic sort of level, and I know it isn't right or fair to judge a girl based on some extra lbs)

    Since boobs are basically tissue sacks of fat...I think we are all doomed. However, lifting weights will help with the perkiness, and of course the slower you loose weight, the better the tissue will adjust.

    As for bras- buy the best bras you can afford and get fitted every 2 months. If you are wearing the right bra- you will look better (and thinner) and it wont place more strain on the ladies. I am a 36G (even with weight loss) and I swear by Intamacy for all my bras. They even have sports bras. I hate having to double bra. I do seem to have very fleshy girls, so for now I just keep them wrapped up in the best packaging until I can afford a lift.

    Thank you. I WILL be fit within a year and know I'll have the "pancake" problem the OP is referring to. I'd like to think my fit bod and great smile will trump the flat boobs. :blushing:
  • my husband says he doesn't care what shape im in as long as im not like, 100lbs overweight. im 35lbs away from my goal right now and even though i think my body looks pretty terrible, he doesn't seem to mind/care. its the boobage that i know bothers him. when we met, i was 18 (23 now), and had these nice perky 36C's. after 2 pregnancies, i have empty bag boobs and i can TELL he notices it. he doesn't play with my boobs like he used to. tmi, i know. but i'm just saying, im sure guys notice the deflation and would PREFER to manhandle something with more oomph...right? although, if i were to get the surgery, i would be doing it 90% for myself and 10% for the hubs.

    I didn't have much weight to lose. Our bodies are always changing as we have children, get older, weight changes. That's just a normal part of life. My body has gotten smaller the same amount proportionally. I suppose my breasts are a little smaller, but so are my thighs and the rest of my body. I'd rather have a trim and fit body then have excess body fat just to have my breasts be barely noticeably bigger and not any bigger in comparison to the rest of my body. My breasts are still firm and perky. My husband is happy, but he loves my body type (that's why he was attracted to me in the first place).

    I haven't reached goal weight but mine are too big and I've been thinking about a reduction and a lift. They are not as big as some people but my overall frame is small. Maybe I need to wait until I reach my goal weight before I do that lol. Just a question though, I was always small until the last 4 yrs but my boobs were still too big. Have any of you ladies that lost weight found that when you lost weight that your boobs were smaller than when you started??? Am I the only one hoping that happens?

    lots of it is genetics. I am breastfeeding right now but even when I'm completely empty they look the same. Strengthening your chest will definitely help lift them!

    It may have less to do with the look of your breasts and more to do with the fact you breastfed. Seeing them used for feeding a baby might make him view them differently. It's not uncommon.
  • went from a very full c down to a very firm and perky a... :blushing:
