I am not trying to deduct the weight from my weight or anything, I am just genuinely curious! I have an F cup (44 F I believe...yikes!) and I wonder how much they could weigh. Haha! I have always had big boobs, even when I was really skinny. Maybe this is a weird thing to talk about? Lmao!

    When I was 19 I had a reduction that took off about 5 1/2 pounds total... I wasn't quite that big (EE maybe?) and was reduced to a B/C. Of course, they've grown a bit since then, but I'm sure you have quite a few pounds there!

    I don't know, maybe if you let me hold them I could tell you... lol..

    Hahahaha, yeah, could you imagine if I were to actually put them on a scale? I will go to the grocery store and instead of weighing my vegetables, I'll just....

  • Not a good conversation going on here. Who really cares, obvioulsy you are not here to share about healthy eating and weight. I think you have another agenda. There are other chat rooms for this sort of stuff.

    Probably your best bet! Just make sure no one asks to check them for freshness... lol
  • I weigh the option of saying , Chiropractor.... ..... :devil:
  • thanks for the visuals - HAHAHAHA

    Let me know which grocery you shop at. LOL
  • You can guess from this. It is from answers. It all depends on the density.


    What is the weight of one 36F cup size breast?




    Between 15 to 27 pounds.

    HA HA HA!!! I'm sorry...I'm busting my gut over here! Unfortunately, I couldn't tell you either, but I would probably estimate about 8-10lbs???

    You can get on the scale and weigh yourself, then have, um, an assistant, stand behind you and support their weight. Then subtract.

    Seriously? Why do you even bother? This is a great question. Especially with some one so large chested. We are all sexual creatures here anyway. Oh and did you even research this before you posted? Why of course not.

    I really dont think she means it in a perverted way!!! My boobs are HUGE. I often wonder myself how much of my weight is taken up by them. Its a normal thing to think.. Also I have many people tell me that it is my chest that makes me look the size I am. So talking about the weight of your chest can be body weight related. It would also help one try to figure out how much they need to lose. Not all of us lose fat in our chest. I certainly dont! Relax a little!!! Have a big chest sucks and sometimes we need to vent about it!!!

    You could just flop one on a food scale.

    I've wondered before, too... Well, after reading this, I had to go check. :blushing: (I should probably tell you that I really HATE not knowing the answer to something. When I was a kid, I actually counted how many licks it takes to get to the center of a tootsie roll pop - 832)...

    First of all, BRRRRR! The scale was cold!

    Second, I had to check four times to make sure it was right (I set the scale on a counter and hoisted the "girls" on top) and I got the same number each time.

    Third, my 38G's weigh a total of 6.8 pounds. I started out as a 44F so I would guess they were probably closer to 8 pounds then?

    Honestly I have wondered this too. Nobody would understand unless they have big breasts. I have always had large breasts that feel like they weigh me down and mine are smaller than yours! I have wondered this.

    This matches what I heard from someone who had a reduction....so all in all they'd be about 10lbs total. Feels like more when you're lugging them around though...

    My ex-wife lost around 5-6 pounds via her breast reduction many years ago. It made a huge difference in her comfort level - especially in her back. Not sure how one could really pull this off...save for placing one on something like a food scale at a height where you wouldn't be pressing down on the scale.

    Not a darn thing wrong with the topic, I say.
  • Lmao and I thought i was weird when i tried that. Im not alone I see!
    Now to add a boob question: Do your boobs get smaller as you lose weight or am I forever doomed to have these huge things???

    People are different, some lose it there first, some don't. I believe that they will go down, just like you'll lose weight everywhere else. I sure hope so.

    Some people lose it there first, others lose it last. It should go down somewhat, though by how much is going to vary by person.
    After a little over 50 pounds lost, mine have gone up a cup size but down in actual measurements (I've lost more around my rib cage than on my actual chest, so the band size went down and the cup size went up). I'm hoping to go down to a size where I can at least buy bras in normal stores by the time I'm done.
