    I'm very concerned about this. When I look in the mirror, I'm nothing but boobs. If I were to lose my flabby belly, I'd be like Dolly Parton. How can I make my breasts smaller? Or do I really have to look into breast reduction surgery?

    Don't be concerned. Boobies rock and big boobies rock even harder. Normal or small sized girls with big boobs are almost impossible to find all natural!! Some lady's lose all their boobs when they lose weight and they are bummed out. You dress up in a nice dress and with your big boobs you will get the attention of every guy. Then you can simply take your pick lol. If you are taken then I would highly suggest getting his opinion as I am sure he likes your huge boobs very much. :smile:

    This may be the best response I've read in a while.

    I agree with that being the best response. I am super afraid to lose my D cups, because I know that as a woman, my big boobs are my best feature. I like that guys take notice to my chest, and I'm so afraid to lose it. I'm glad to hear a man tell his honest opinion about boobs. lol

    At my heaviest, I was a 38G. At my lightest, I was a 32GG. If they aren't hurting you, what's not to love about them sticking around?? I love my lady lumps.

    My mom always admonished that you need to wear a bra if you could hold up a pencil ..... I think I am at the typewriter stage.

    They aren't nearly as much fun as they are trouble. Lay on your back and where do real ones go? Under your arm. Have a poor bra and you look older than you are. Attracting unwanted attention. People assume you have the IQ of your bra size.

    I don't know ......... reduction could be a good word in some cases.

    I'm not too thrilled because I am just too big. I can't wear certain shirts or other tops. Also, not all guys like big breasts. There are some who find them ugly. Ever heard of the saying, "anything larger than a handful/mouthful is waste"? I find it both misogynist and hurtful. Also, I think GQ did a survery that shows most men prefer smaller breasts and a recent study suggests men who like large breasts have sexist tendencies. I know it's not the end of the world, but these sort of things make me depressed.

    I wish I was a D or even DD. 38G is just too large. I know it's in the genes because some of my female relatives were huge. I started wearing a bra in 4th grade and wore a C cup by 6th grade. Genetics can be such a curse sometimes.

    I am the same way. However, my husband likes my chest and is not sexist, so I don't really worry about that. It just sucks because they clearly add to my weight haha, AND I WANT TO WEAR SHIRTS WITH BUTTONS. I also have my mother in law send bras from the UK, because in Canada, a good fitting bra often costs me $120. As la senza and the lot only go up to a DD...and my inches around aren't big enough for plus size stores.

    Exactly. If you have large breasts you are immediately labeled as ditzy and slutty. They also sag as you age. Sigh!

    I was in the same boat - a 34G at my thinnest. I had a reduction 5 years ago, best thing I ever did! Now my girls are a perky 36D - no more daily stares/leers/comments, no more shoulder grooves/back pain/neck pain, I can wear whatever I want, people don't think I'm slutty or stupid without knowing me, etc.

    The people who are saying this is a good thing clearly haven't dealt with very large breasts! A D cup is great - a G, not so much.

    Whoever said that it begins with the breasts was wrong. People's bodies hold fat in different places. Some people lose the boobs first, some lose there last. At the end of the day, if your bf% gets low enough, you will eventually lose them.

    It's just your natural body, if they cause you problems then think about getting them reduced. I'm all about live with with you've got if they aren't causing you pain. Do people get *kitten* reduction surgery when they lose weight? :tongue:

    Sadly sweetie you may not lose much in your breasts. I have lost 1oo+ pounds and gone from DD to D. They say its all in your genes...well....not so sure about that because no one in my family is blessed.

    Good luck I hope you find the results you want.

    I would wait until you hit your goal weight before you make any decisions. Also try to do some strength training to tighten things up. If you are still unhappy, it's your life so make whatever decision will make you happy. Just make sure you are doing it for you and not because you think that's what guys like!! Good luck!

    The first major loss I had (60 lb) I think I mainly lost inches around, and while my breasts got smaller (I could tell), my actual cup size didn't change, because as your ribcage measurement gets smaller, your cup size gets bigger, because the cup size is based on the difference between your ribcage measurement and your bust. So even though I lost a few inches all around, my cup size remained about the same. I basically went from being a 40F to a 36F, but my overall bust size went down from 47 to 43. So even if you're not seeing your cup size go down, it's very possible that your overall bust size is decreasing.

    Pics or it didn't happen.

    Uhm, this is the Internet - you have plenty of porn to access.

    I know you're kidding (I hope) but no need for such comments.

    When I was my thinnest adult weight at 130, I was a 34C. At my heaviest now (18X), I'm a 36C. They seem to like that size.

    Just depends where you lose weight. I'm the same size I was 30 lbs ago :(
    It's all where your body decides to lose the fat...

    My band size has decreased from a 40 to a 38. A good sign but I wish to see a decrease somewhere else too :)

    This happened to me, I went from a 38 to 30. However I went to Bravissimo here in the UK and had a re-fit, I was jumping for joy going down in back size but could of cried when I went up 3 cup sizes :sad: The fitter insisted I put my t-shirt back on I'm glad as I looked so much smaller, I couldn't believe it.
