CALLING ALL BUSTY GIRLS

OMG! I sooooo have this same issue. Pleeeease tell me what sports bra y'all are wearing. I am being active for the first time since getting a Fitbit and nothing holds these boobs in place.

Any brand advice or tricks would be greatly appreciated.

Ladies, I presently wear an H cup (that's 5 D's). The difference in size between a D cup and an H cup, is the same as between an A cup and a DD. I have recently visited a plastic surgeon to see about a breast reduction. I told him that if possible I'd like to be a full C. He said I might end up still being a D, and I can accept that. Wish me luck that the insurance company ok's it.

BTW, Wacol makes excellent bras with great support for us, the generously endowed women. They're expensive, but they're worth it (around $65. Each)

The Plastic Surgeon told me that if I wanted to lose some weight before the surgery, that would be fine. He said if I lost some after surgery, the breasts have a tendency to sag. But just try to go to a weight that I can maintain. And btw, I have grooves in my shoulders from the weight of my breasts, and have arthritis in my neck and lower back from carrying this load. It's not fun.

This is something I've considered for years, so fingers crossed that it will happen and be successful.

Girls are definitely not shrinking for me, either. Still a D after 80+lbs gone and have to wear a sports bra and a sport tank to smoosh them in. And for me, mine look bigger because my gut shrank lol!

I'm wearing a champion from Target. I usually wear a tank top with a shelf bra too but I don't need it to keep em in place.

Lets all buy Genie Bras and get it over with. Them babies lift, tuck, flatten and give you an instant reduction. :laugh:

Seriously though, I know what you mean. My actual BODY size is like a 2x but I have to buy a 5x just to accommodate the "ladies" as I call them.

I lost 50 pounds and went from a DD to a DDD because I finally got correctly sized... Unfortunately, I don't see any end to my "girls" in sight.

I usually end up wearing two bras to work out. I wear a kind of grungy underwire bra on the bottom, then a "high impact" champion sports bra over that. If I'm doing anything super active, like a boot camp, I wear a compression shirt over there. I don't want any movement!

You're blessed! I wish I was busty.

:sad: :sad: when i weigh 104 my bust was 32 d. now i am a 36 ddd. i think that this is a problem with many woman. what i am afraid of when i finish my losing weight will they still be perky??

I love this thread! It's about time the busty girls talk about our dilemmas....When I was younger, I was a 36C at my lowest weight. That was OK. Now, after age and kids, I seem to be stuck at a 40D. For a somewhat short (5'4") and active women, it's a drag. Yes, I've discovered that tops/dresses must be bought in a larger size because of them, so I've opted for medium size stretchy fabrics now...and I look much better in my clothes because now my true waist size shows. When I reach my goal of 135 I plan to have a breast reduction....B cup is my dream. To go braless or stapless or wear anything off the rack is within reach!!!!

THIS!
I've started the C25K a couple of times recently and these girls just don't want to be tamed! I'm a 38 D-DD and it is painful sometimes and a big part of why I can't actually keep at it. I have tried wearing two sports bras, a regular bra and a sports bra, or wrapping with ace bandages and then putting on the sports bra. They still just bounce away.

Hi I've gone from 38E to 36D. So far I have only lost 28 pounds, but due to a leg injury, a lot of my exercise has been upper body. Push ups, planks, weighted chest flys and rows. I have also been filtering water befor eI drink it, or drinking bottled water, as I heard this can cut the amount of hormones you consume via water.

Congrats on the 40 lbs - you look great!

Even at my lowest weight of 134 pounds/5"7" I was still a D... It's just the way I am built - I have grown to accept it, find clothes that flatter it, and embrace my assets (there are certainly worse ways to carry your weight!)

Surgery is ridiculous as far as I am concerned unless for back pain.

This statement is ridiculous and offensive. I was a D until I was 19. I had my surgery at 23, and I'd only been a DDD for 4 years, yet it did irreversible damage to my spine, causing me pain everyday. I should've had it years before it became medically necessary, but I couldn't have known that then.

Moreover, I endured horrible daily sexual harassment, culminating in a sexual assault at my high school, because I went from a B to a D in the space of 2 months, on a 5' 3.5" 118 pound frame. I needed the surgery to stop hating myself. I needed the surgery to be able to trust men.

Get over yourself, and keep your baseless judgements to yourself.

I have a large pair as well. I usually range from a DD to E cup. They do make any sort of high impact activity a bit difficult and as I have lost weight they have not gotten any smaller....just saggier! I have recently switched to sports bras by Moving Comfort; which has been a great choice, they do not bounce at all and I can do jumping jacks whithout getting knocked out!

As the weight goes, the boobs will go, too! I was a 40 DD and I am now a 38 B or a small C.
