FWIW after losing 18 pounds I went from a DD to a D. I think I'm a D (getting measured this weekend, there's way too much room in my bra).0

Mine stay put until I get pretty low on the BMI scale, below 20. But it varies for everyone and it depends on where you store fat. I haven't been smaller than a DD since I was 14 or so, and when I do lose they're still that big, just smaller than before, so I know that's just where I carry weight.0

I recall when I first went from 160lbs to 130, I went from a C to slightly larger than an A. I'm currently a full B and I know that they're gonna shrink the more weight I lose.
However, my body likes to lose weight from the belly-button up, first, no matter what I do.
That being said, it means my arms tone up pretty fast, and I actually prefer how I look with a smaller chest, but that's just me. I think you're just at the mercy of where you body likes to give or take.0 -
I doubt they will all of a sudden shrink drastically. Maybe a little as you get a lower body fat %.
When I was around this size before I gained I was a solid B cup. Now I'm having trouble finding a good bra,.. 36C works for the cup but the band is to large,.. 34C works for the band but the cup is to small .. 34D is missing in action (yet to find that size in a regular store) Guess I'll have to give in and go to a specialty place.
Still crossing my fingers and hoping for a little shrinkage as I drop my last 5-10lb.0 -
Another part of the equation that I haven't seen mentioned here is age and hormones. Women's breasts will often grow larger as they get older and closer to menopause due to hormonal changes. I was an A cup or "nearly A" for most of my life and when I hit my 40's the girls decided to get with the program and grew to a C, then to a D almost overnight (with no significant weight gain elsewhere). Gaining and losing weight when I was young did affect the size of the girls, but after I got older it hasn't been that much of a factor.0

Im hoping that it IS the case! LoL!!!! I need something to look forward to here!!!!!
Im very small (when within my normal weight range) as well...if I get to have breasts that I actually get to keep when I hit my 40's..then I'll tell you what, come on 40!!!!!
ETA: Awe...I just did a bit of research, not much, but enough to see that the increase in breast size in many women later in life and especially after menopause was due to weight gain. Well, there goes that...!0 -
Mine haven't changed yet. I'm hoping they go down quite a bit, that way I don't have to buy as big a chest binder (won't get one till I've lost a good amount of weight, cause then I'd just have to buy another one).0

I've lost 90+ pounds.
The girls are going nowhere. In fact, they seem MUCH bigger because I have lost everything around/below. Boob loss is sad, but it does not happen to everyone.0 -
Oh god I hope mine get smaller. Please oh please get smaller for love of my back!

LOL!!!!!!!!!! Well, that's hopeful for me, at least. I guess you can 'let yourself go' then?? LOL! Oh, the problems. I will gladly give you some of mine. No prob. 0 -

So true. Bury me with a great bra on, so the visitors can use me as a 'bike rack' LOL!!!! Ahem. Sorry.

I'd say it depends where your body loses most of its weight. I've lot 33 pounds and now have ZERO boobs because it appears to have mainly come from my top half. Seriously considering getting fake ones its that upsetting!!!0

My moobs have totally lessened... like a lot.0

Boobs are no fun when they smack your chin on a jog.0

Like others are saying, it depends on the individual. I'm 5'7 and before I gained weight, I was an F cup, of course when I gained they got bigger and increased to a G (though I was spilling a bit, but didn't have many store options). My peak weight was 192. I've lost a good bit so far, and at 158 (about 5 pounds short of my pre-gain weight) I'm a full G cup. So it's of course dependent on many things including genetics, hormones, etc. Nothing is cut and dry.0

I started off with DD at 150lbs and by the end of my journey i was a A and 108. I bounce back and fourth though during my bulking and cutting cycles. but i haven't owned a bra larger than a B in 2.5 years.
Great way to explain!
And I'd gladly swap some boob size for your tiny toned body!
I could always just buy some more if I missed them too much! 0 -
I am 45lbs down and the girls have not went! But everyone is differant.0

Down 50+ pounds. I went from a full C ( a D while breastfeeding), to barely filling out an A cup. But that loss was gradual over the first 30 pounds or so. Not loving my chest. Oh and before pregnancy, weight gain, breastfeeding, and weight loss, I was a very nice B0

Not good for me, unless it all decides to go to one breast.0 -

Freaking Hilarious....0 -
I lost my boobs and it was one of the best things that ever happened to me.0

If you lose them, there are lots of nice boys that will help you find them.
I speak from experience, I have lost almost 10 inches off my chest. It's lovely to see my feet again. And my hubby is always willing to conduct a search for my boobs.0
