Right now, I am wearing a 36DD bra. To many of you, this is probably huge, to me it is the best feeling I've had in a long time. See, just five days ago I had a breast reduction. I went from a size g - n (depends on brand) to a DD. Yes, this bra is a little bit small (I am probably a 38 or 40DD) but just the fact that I am fitting in it and not pooling out, the fact that my old bras are so incredibly baggy...well, I'd say this is the best NSV I've ever had :)

Also, even though they are bruised like a ripe banana right now, my bewbies are awessssooooomeeee!

    Awesome NSV!! I know how you feel - I've gone from an 34H to a 34GG since February. It's a nice feeling to have some extra room in your bra! :smokin:

    I think 36 DD is just perfect! Of course, given that I wear that size I miiiight be a little biased ;)

    Congrats I also personally know what a great feeling that is. I had a reduction almost 14 years ago and between weight gain and three kids I was up to a 42 DDD and now I'm back down to a 38D/36DD.
    Awesome

    Congratulations! I had one a year & a half ago . . . it was amazing. I can actually wear "cute" bras now (especially since I started losing weight), and I can go out without a bra as long as I'm layered up and stand up straight. And my wardrobe options have tripled.

    Congratulations, I can imagine how great that must feel. I am a 36i and would like a redux once I am satisfied with my weight. You said you are bruised but are you in any pain?

    Hi,

    I had a reduction about 7 years ago. Best thing I ever did!! I slowly gained weight so they have gotten bigger but since starting mfp, I am back on my way to where I'd like to be (36D).

    Congrats to you! I'm sure you will enjoy your new, perkier boobs!! :-)

    I can't imagine having boobs that big.

    Anyways, Congrats! I'm sure they look much better on you now!

    The pain isn't that bad, no. I was prescribed t3's and have only used them twice. I use advil and feel just fine :)

    I had one in 2008 and I will say this; you will never regret it. Do stay accountable on your weight though. I went from a G to a C, but then gained weight & got back up to a DD. Once I get it off this time, I'm keeping it off. Congrats!

    haha I was thinking the same thing! I wear a 40 DD but i'm hoping they'll shrink otherwise I want to get a reduction to a nice full C, I haven't had those since middle school!!

    Awesome! I bet you have less back pains too now! Clothes probably fit better I bet, which is exciting in itself. Congrats on the success surgery! :flowerforyou: :drinker:

    I hear ya, I told my husband if my boobs don't shrink I'm gonna do a breast reduction after I met my GW. lucky for me they did shrink. I'm down from a 40DDD to a 34C, and I could not be happier!

    I'm so jealous! I'm popping outta a 38H right now. Part of it is breastfeeding but I was a G or something before getting pregnant. T.T If I dont lose them when I get to my goal weight I'm totally getting a reduction.

    I'm only a 36 C/D and I have to strap them down but good to exercise. This should make it a lot easier on you!

    Yeah once I get down to a more comfortable weight, I might get a reduction myself. Being an F is uncomfortable and a hassle...

    Congrats! At 38G I dream of getting a reduction. Hopefully they will shrink a bit with the weight loss. :drinker:

    however I think mine are due for a lift :grumble:

    Congrats on the BR! I'm getting mine later this year. I can only imagine how wonderful it must be to lose the back pain and have "normal" sized breasts. Best of luck with your healing!!
