    Never had much to start with, and infact it probably looked worse when I was heavier because it was less in proportion. If anything I have more confidence in that area now. Call me biased but I'm all about that pear shape!

    Had to go bra shopping today, and nearly started bawling in the fitting room. Before kids and weight, I was a nice perky 34B. At my heighest weight, while breastfeeding, I was a 36D/38C depending on the bra. Today with a chest measurement of 33 inches, I had to buy a 36A. If we can find the money, a breast augmentation is in my future. Even now, I still feel like crying

    What are you insecure about?

    my rib cage stayed the same size and my boobs got smaller.... to the point that my bra size is not one that's stocked in most shops

    but I have a very large rib cage, especially as I'm only 5'1". I blame the neanderthals (or whichever of my cro-magnon ancestors were having sex with them)

    it didn't make me insecure. I like being built like a short-*kitten* brick sh** house. :drinker:

    I love my small chest, and since I've lost weight my boobs are much tighter and perkier as only the breast tissue remained and the saggy fat melted away. It's an A cup, yes, but I don't mind.

    Even though you won't lose weight proportionally, your body will still shrink as a whole and your boobs won't look much smaller compared to the rest.

    nope and my bra cup size stayed the same but I lost a band size which is no big deal and my boobs are now more lifted(I lift weights too).my butt is still on the big side(always have had a big butt even when i was thin) but its lifted a lot and getting the more rounded look.

    I've always hated my boobs. I don't think I feel anymore insecure now than I did 80 lbs ago LOL. After I lose ALL the weight (260+ lbs), maintain for three years, I'm getting the loose skin and the boobs or whatever is left, removed.

    Everyone is different, but I strongly prefer fit and lithe over busty and overweight

    Much rather be fit than have big boobs- luckily I get to have both!

    I don't have any problem losing weight from my chest. Females mostly store fat in their chest, hips and thighs. So, losing inches from any of them is good, as far as I'm concerned.

    When I lost a lot of weight a few years ago, I went from a c cup to a b cup. I'm not upset by the drop in cup size. As long as I don't go to an a ????

    I had practically no boobs before. I have even less now - It's amazing what a good bra can do though.

    I don't worry about it too much really. I am what I am.

    Gee, from a man's perspective, one who understands, I feel you on this (no pun intended). What man would keep losing weight if his ying yang got smaller? My mom always complained about losing weight and breast size. But it was a trade off she chose to live with. Unfortunately this is how you ladies are put together. If it's any help, most guys don't care.

    I like this response. We are what we are, no apologies.

    I used to be a nice, neat 34c. Am now a 39dd. And I hate then! They're painful, I can't see my feet and keep tripping over the dog 'cos I don't see her. Can't find a comfy bra that fits, and they make me look bigger than I am. Roll on the weight loss, it can all go! Ironically, when I was younger and slimmer, I yearned for bigger boobs. Case of be careful what you wish for I think.

    Even though my chest got smaller, it is way more proportionate to the rest of my body now. I was always huge though, I could defiantly stand to lose a few bra sizes.
