What about your boobs?

well i started my weight loss journey at about 155 and was a 34dd (almost spilling out of the cups) but i am down to 136 and still wearing a 34dd but i feel the cups getting big! i think it's time for a d!

that is me exactly!

I think it entirely depends on your natural shape and how slowly you lose the weight and if you exercise while you do it. I've had big boobs all of my life (and I mean that - I was a C cup at 11 years old). I personally love them, particularly as I carry most of my weight on my tummy and back so proportionately, they always give the illusion that I have a waist where there isn't one! I'm a 38GG now, the lowest bra size I remember being at my slimmest 8 years ago was a 36F, which were still rather large proportionately. I've also been fairly lucky so far in that despite weight gain and loss, they remain exceptionally perky for their size but then when I lose weight, it's usually done rather slowly and I enjoy classes like Body Pump as part of my exercise regime. However, my younger sister, who is a fairly similar shape to me, ended up having a breast lift/implants a couple of years back. This is because she lost weight very quickly and as a result her breasts sagged quite dramatically. A couple of other friends who have had very quick weight losses who haven't done weights for their chest during the transition had the same problem. I would advise losing weight slowly and making sure that part of your exercise programme includes weight training for your chest muscles. It won't increase the size of your boobs but it will help prevent sagging as you lose weight. I do recommend Les Mills Body Pump personally as a good shape changer.

I've gone from E to a C... Although I suspect I'm not far off a B. They've never been this small even when I was slimmer! :-(

come to that...what do boobs WEIGH?

I looked up DD's and they can weigh anywhere from 3-4 lbs each.

I went from a full C to a A cup... I miss them

I used to be a 40 H. I could NEVER FIND BRAS UNDER A HUNDRED DOLLARS! I lost about 130 pounds and now I am a 34 D and quiet a bit of it is extra skin. The weight loss was grad. enough and I am on hormone therapy so I think that is the only two things keeping my boobs from being two saggy pudding bags. They are still perky to a point but they aren't ANYTHING like they used to be. and honestly, I am so thankful!! I can run now, do handstands, my back doesn't kill me and I can afford bras. You will get there. Make sure you keep up on your nutrients and vitamins, keep vitamin e lotion and coco butter handy and use it on them often and if you do workout try to take in some swimming or light weight lifting to keep the muscles under them tight. That helped me

Mine were always petite, let's say. When I lost weight and was at a bmi of 19.5 for two years, they were pretty sad-looking. I've gained ~9 pounds (of fat, I'm pretty sure), putting me at a bmi of 21, and things have perked up I've also been told I look less 'drawn'. This was my weight in high school, so I think it's probably where I ought to be.

Tricky to get the right balance, because you just gain where you gain. My legs are meatier than I'd like, and I'm not thrilled with my lower belly. I think I'll aim for a compromise, and try to at least firm up the legs, and maybe lose a pound or two, and maybe, things will look great for half a minute. :indifferent:

I'm a 42H so this whole thread gives me hope that things might decrease - in the past I've noticed my size around has gone down, but not so much the cup size. However, this time around I'm doing weight lifting and I've been told that makes a difference. Even if I can get to a DDD - it'll be easier to find bras then.

Mine have increased in the cup, from a 36F to a 36G, I don't find it all that hard to find bras- wonder bras are amazing as they give you an awesome amount of support but I'm lucky enough to have an independant shop near me that orders in the sizes I need rather then a store like La Senza who I used to love now only goes up to live DD v__v I loved their pantie selection too now it only goes up to a 14 here in the UK

I have gone down from 18F to a 12DD.

They have held up really well, despite the much needed shrinkage - thanks for my personal trainer for all the chest work with weights... Actually I haven't specifically thanked him for this as yet....might be slightly awkward

I've lost 11lbs so far and I think most of it has come off of my boobs haha.

Bump! Great question

Thats amazing Im now a 36 D and my boobs are huge and I used to be 34 B so cardio and weight training and of cousre diet will do the trick at least I have that to look forward to.

You're too late, kcarl. Everyone was posting pictures of their naked boobs but then the moderators came in and took them all down...

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
