    Please help me. I am a 42DDD and can not find a support bra to support them. Please please tell me the brand you buy and where I can purchase them. I would prefer wearing these with my casual wear but need the lift.

    Nordstrom sells a lot of brands for hard to find sizes. I'm a big fan of Freya and Panache. Panache makes the most awesome sports bras.

    Ladies I need to hear from you!

    I am 210 lbs 5'6
    I have been trying to get motivation to continue on my weight loss journey but my boobs are holding me back.
    I am a B cup and fear of losing what little I have.

    I want to hear what your experiences have been during weight loss.

    Thanks!

    You can buy boobs. You can't buy health. You can't buy the amazing feeling of accomplishment that will come from transforming your body and changing your life. NO ONE can tell you how your individual body will react to losing weight, but don't use boobs as an excuse to keep you from living the life you deserve. :)

    I am the same size. I buy my bras at Lane Bryant - I swear by their bras. If you go into one of their stores, you can ask someone to measure you. And, they will help you find the right bra fit and type.

    I can't afford to buy boobs....and I think if she could afford new boobs she wouldn't be asking the question cause if she loses em she could just go get her some fake ones. I don't think she's using it as an excuse either, she just wants to know how other ppl reacted to the loss and if it came from their boobs. I was pissed when mine started to go, it's a femininity issue too not just a weight issue.

    I started off where you are, 5'7", 210 lbs, B cup. Now down to 170, have lost 4 inches off my chest, but still holding strong at a B cup.

    I don't think she's using it as an excuse either. The OP seems like a sweetheart with a legimate question. I was actually trying to help..I just hate to see someone self-sabotage (even accidentally) because of fear of saggy skin/losing boobs/whatever. What I was trying to say is that her health and happiness are more important than whatever happens to her boobs. After further reading the thread, I think the OP already understood that though. :) Best wishes to you both.

    It's very strongly based on genetics. I went from a DD to a large B after 55lbs.

    I have heard that obesity can increase chances of breast cancer, perhaps having a "fatty" chest contributes? Either way - Natural size is better than fat boobs.

    Cup sizes are total crap in bras now, so losing a cup size won't necessarily tell the whole story. You may lose inches around your band size (those are also all wrong), and your boobs will look bigger or proportionate.

    Darn. Based on the title of this thread I thought it was about hermaphrodites. Never mind.

    I always lose my boobs, which makes me sad, but I can fit into tops and dresses better.

    Down 50
    Went from a 40D to a 34DD
    Boobs are a bit smaller physically, but cup size has nothing to do with how big the girls are and everything to do with the DIFFERENCE between your band measurement and your full bust measurement.
    If you haven't watched this video, DO SO. It's awesome:

    But like you said, this isn't about your tits. It's about your HEALTH. You gotta mentally get over it.
    My waist is teeny tiny, so my boobs still look fine even though they are smaller.

    I'm 5'3. I've lost 37 pounds so far, and my bra size went from a 46DDD to a 42G. I'm hoping they will shrink as I lose weight!
    When I reach my goal weight, I am having some work done to them.

    I am praying mine go down, I wear a h cup... Granted, I'd rather lose from my face/back/legs/stomach/arms first but hopefully my boobs go way down too!

    I have had big boobs from 11 years old but a UK12 after having 4 children my boobs went up to a G. Even after loosing 2st I am still a G but a smaller back size. I would love them to smaller.

    I would advice the ladies to go to a bra shop that helps you get the right size, not these shops ie Ann Summers etc. We have one the lady will get you to try on all different sports bra until she helps you get the correct one (she lets you put on by yourself and checks). Yes i need to go back and check my size
