Pancake boobs.

So, come to find out losing weight makes my boobs look like I belong on National Geographic. I can't find a good bra that supports me the how I want. I'll admit. I want me some cleavage, gotta make the girls look nice for my new shirts.
That being said.
Now I'm kinda talkin to bigger girls. But what BRAND has something that will support me well and actually fit around me without me looking like the Michelin Man. I have a problem with getting bras just to later hate them because they roll up when I sit or gradually start to ride up. NOT FLATTERING!! Plus super annoying.
SO here is to makin my boobs look like a porn star. Goodness knows my husband would be a fan.

LMAO! Go to a good bra store and get fitted! Most women don't know what size they really are, especially once you lose weight! Spending a little more money on a good bra will certainly make the difference and be more comfortable!0

If you boobs are still on the larger side try a plus size store for a bra like fashion bug or layne bryant I know it sounds terrible considering you lost weight but for good support and the right size that might be something you want to do.0

I agree with the other posts... go to a good bra shop.
I have always hade very LARGE boobs and I never wanted them to sag so one thing I did do was spend lots on good bras.
Berlie brand is one of my fav's0 -
Haha! I definately agree on getting fitted again since as you lost weight. Embrace your boobies! The little weight I lost came from my boobs -.- My friend never can find bras that fit her so she finally got one custom made. She said it was a pretty penny, but so worth it in the end! Although maybe invest your money in a good fitting bra until you reach your goal weight since as your bra size will most probably change.0

I like Olga bras, and if you go to a department store you can get a fitting. I like to hit the sales semi anually where you buy one get one free and then the cost is not so much. A good quality bra will last you and will be worth the money. Also look at building up your pecs. I think that Denise Austin has some really good exercises.0

The best investment you'll make!0 -
I think getting measured is not only the way forward but also a way of charting your continued weight loss, you will deffinately be losing more weight so i'd suggest gettingmeasured every couple months,buy just a few bra's each time until you reach your target, then have a celebratory spluge on the loveliest bras you can find :happy: well done on your weight loss, I've had big' girls' since they arrived in my teens, and have hated them, oh to have the cash for a reduction....my sis did it and hasn't looked back, and can see her shoes too!!!!!!0

Okay, being a bigger girl and understanding the pancake issue.... Lane Bryant offers some good bras
You want a lined bra... it helps with keeping a good shape and also LIFT

hopefully that works or search "Smooth satin full-coverage bra" on Lane Bryant's website...
they also have similar one but its a plunge style... allows for super low cut tops and gives a bit more cleavage per say... I personally dont care for these as with my body type they kinda give me the quad boob problem...
once u figure out what bras work for u, then u can look else where for others depending on your size...
hope this helps0 -
When you have bigger boobs you have to invest in a good bra.Never go the cheapest route when buying bras because you get what you pay for. At my highest weight I wore 42DDD, and currently am in 38DD. I found that bras at lane bryant work for me. They have the cacique brand which works well, they are comfortable and don't ride up. I also like that the bands are thick and hold in back spillage. I can't stand to see woman that aren't wearing the right bras for their sizes. They also have push up bras, which i like to call go get em bras because when i put it on i go get all the boys lol. The first step though is to get sized properly.0

If theyre riding up, the band is too loose, try going down a band size or two, even if you have to go up a cup size0

You girls are all sooo sweet:)
Sounds like my *kitten* needs to get fitted for SURE.
There is a Layne Bryant about a 45 minutes from me, but it sounds like thats where I need to go:)
Thanks SOOO much for the feedback:)0 -
U can look online how to measure yourself... personally I measure WAY larger in the bra I actually wear.... when I wear th correct fitting bras the back rids up and or my breasts fall out the bottom...hard to explain... the best thing to do is try on bras... and good quality ones first... once u know what u like and what works for you then u can go from there.... check out lane bryant, i feel they are the best when it comes to plus size bras in the US... meaning over a size 20.... make sure when u go to the store u are wearing a shirt u like and is comfortable.. or even bring an extra one... like a normal t shirt and another... so u can see how it looks...0
