I probably A. shouldn't be sharing and B. shouldn't be sad, but I finally went bra shopping this weekend--I lost a full cup size, so now I am an A. My boobs were never big before, never anything to write home about, but now I feel downright...unfeminine. My husband says he doesn't care, but I care, you know? Boobs are the first sign you get when you're a kid that you're growing up...now I might as well stand backwards. :(

    I was a d in high school and now a barely b sad but what do you do. They are fat so once you start losing fat they start to go a little more too:frown: I am saving up for a boob job not Pamela Anderson's but a full C or I would even settle for a full b. That would be nice!! Maybe one day:smile:

    when I started working out I went down a cup size, too (I'm now an A as well). At first I was bummed but now I really like it. I can wear cute swimsuits and not worry about coverage or sagging... hell i'll probably never have to worry about sagging! push-up bras work wonders... and I feel smaller all over! I feel that if I'm smaller on top, it just creates an all-over smaller looking silhouette! try those reasons to celebrate your new size!! :bigsmile:

    Undone-
    I think that anyone would agree that you look so much more attractive now. Who cares if you lost a cup size? You lost so much more from your waist... Your figure is much more hour-glass shaped now, and that means more feminine and womanly!
    And you never know, they might come back ... So I don't recommend any surgery. But you might try a padded bra if you feel self-conscious about it.

    I too was sad when I lost what very little I had from my boobs. I went from an A to a AAA due to having a partial mastectomy, I think I was more upset about the loss of boobs than the cancer. I did end up having augmentation surgery when I made it to my 10 year cancer free anniversary and I just love the new twins (which are D's). So basically what I'm trying to say is I feel your pain.

    I lost my but, but still have my C cups. I want my but back:sad: I had a nice round but, now nothing. :cry: Just think of yourself as lucky. At least you can get away with out wearing a bra occationally. I always have to wear one, cause if I don't it is completely noticable:blushing:

    Holy cow you went from AAA to D's. That's a big difference. My mom had cancer just this last year and is about the same situation as you. She was a A and now is an AA, she didn't have to have a mastectomy, but between the chemo and radiation they shrank. I couldn't imagine my mom with D's.

    Congrates on your 10 years.

    I second both posts of yellow_pepper. I'd like to move around some fat on my body - I'd take some off my tights and put it on the upper part of my body, here and there. :ohwell: Don't thnk I'm ungrateful - I just wish I'd stop measuring myself (and the other ladies that pass by and I compare myself to) based on my tights.

    I'd trade you any day. I'm a C and would love to be a B at the most.

    I would trade you any day!! At my biggest I was a 42 F and now I'm a DD. I had a reduction and they went back up to an F when I had my second daughter. I asked the Dr. if she would make me smaller but she said that I would look out of proportion (sp?) if I went any smaller then a C (which they didn't last at a C for very long) guess I wasn't done growing at 23 years old! :grumble: :noway:

    yeah that's what will happen to me when i reach my goal weight too. i know because i've been 120 before and am stuck between a and b cup so it was hard to find bras.

    I bought those chicken cutlet boosters. I mis my near double d's but I dont miss being 200lbs so my smaller rack is a small price to pay for my health think of it that way.

    I was expecting to lose a little from my chest, but I guess when you ain't got much, a little means a cup size! But thanks to everyone who pointed out the positives--and for telling me I'm pretty. :blushing:

    WillPillage--Congrats on 10 years!

    glad to see im not the only one with that problem..

    but mines look deflated, the sag and that even worst then just getting smaller...without a bra i look like a 90yo lady .....

    it bothers me, but i know that it doesnt show when im all dressed up.. so it more then showed when i was obese...

    cant be perfect :laugh: :ohwell:

    I also hope that I lose some MORE from that part of my body! But May_Marie, I do feel your pain too. I'm assuming I'll need a breast lift once I'm done losing weight and done breastfeeding... There's less boob but just as much skin :grumble: Small price to pay though!!
