I'm a C/D now depending on the band. But we don't have small boobs in my family, so I'm not worried about it.0 -
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!!!
You know..for *yeeears* ever since I had my daughter, I wanted implants... like all kinds of bad! Then, over the past couple years I was like, omg, why would I ever? Ive matured, beyond all that..Im gonna love me for ME!!!
Yeah, then I lost this weight, have back the breasts I used to have and it hit me..OHHHH YEAH thats why I wanted implants! So yeah, it was easy to accept my body for what it is, when I gained enough weight to have some fullness and like what I had! I dont care about being small, or about being big...its not the size at all, its that there just is no structure to them at all...*tears!* oh well, maybe this will be my gift to myself when I turn 40.
Either that or like @BigLifter10 said, just let myself go LMFAO0 -
It all depends on the person and how you lose weight. I know people who have lost weight as well as their boobs. I happen to lose weight first in my legs then arms, face and where i need to lose it (mid-section) last....I can never seem to stick with it to that point! I have always been bigger on top, a D cup when I was a size 5...a long LONG time ago. I have graduated to a DDD now, I want to lose a couple of D's but they dont seem to shift very often. If you do lose weight there, I definately reccomend massaging them when you take a shower to increase blood flow to that area. I know when I got pregnant with my daughter it was a matter of weeks before I had to start wearing maternity bras, they literally ballooned up, I attribute the massages for keeping them in good form. Good luck! I hope you can keep the boobs!0

I was worried I would lose my boobs too, but shockingly when I look in the mirror at this point, my boobs actually look bigger! The thing is, I've slimmed down everywhere and I'm sure I've lost some of my boobage, but since other parts of my body are smaller now, my boobs look more prominent. Never expected that!
Now I have a friend who before losing weight probably wore an E cup, and she's down to a B, so I guess it's just different for everyone.0 -

And now she secretly hates you, right? LOL!0 -
I don't agree with the people saying "if you've lost most of the weight, they probably won't change." Mine didn't start shrinking until I was on my last ten pounds, and now I'm down an entire cup size.0

See, this poster sounds like one of the nice boys who help find lost boobs0 -
I've lost mine as I've lost weight, but they are very proportional to my body. I went from a 34F to a 32E.0

I have lost a pants size while maintaining, but nothing more on top.
So, yes...they've gotten smaller, but it's still the same proportions I had before.
The price doesn't go down a ton until you hit a single D. I'm a DDD and I easily spend $50/60 on a bra. They aren't even that cute! You can't get cute ones until you're down to a C or want to spend a ton of money! GRRRRRR.....

so I'm getting super close to my goal and while that is very exciting I can't stop worrying about the fact that i could lose my boobs. I'm a c now and I've lost almost 50 pounds. so basically I'm asking if i haven't lost them yet will I ever?
Be thankful that you are in a C cup my God I wear a 46DD!!0 -
I was an F before I got sick and gained all the weight so I hope and pray, please, please, please that I'll lose all that I gained (2 cups sizes, making me an H) and then an extra couple of cups as well once I've reached my goal weight!0

I dont think anyone is saying they wont change..just that it wont be a dramatic change. One cup size is not dramatic..and Im guessing they didnt go from a full size to deflating like baloons out of air either? LoL
Thats kind of the difference between going down in size relative to overall weight loss, and when its the first to go, and keeps going, going gone... Thats what those of us who are saying at this point where she is so close, any change will not be enough to be of any concern are saying.

I think mine actually got bigger...or I've just been wearing the wrong bra size my whole life. Totally possible. The band went down like 4 inches but the cup size went from B to D. I almost peed my pants when the woman who did my fitting told me I needed a D. I probably just got saggier and need the support more or something.0

And your still clicking... as if there will be a picture or something

I'm fifty & have had a passel of kids; but, lack of boobs was never an issue. Had an ample bosom 36C / 36D (when pregnant) until the last few months of weight loss. Presently, I can fit in my daughter's training brahave gone from 36C..and for a short while at my heaviest, a 36D... to now swimming in my 34Bs.
I am even considering buying a padded bra so that I do not look completely flat chested. Maybe it's because I have always had sufficient cleavage without the need for padded or pushup bras that saying goodbye to my boobs is the worst part of my get healthy/fit journey. Consolation prize... now I have abs

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.
Hope mine don't disappear when I lose 90lbs!
Bodies are so different though, you won't know until you've reached your goal, OP!

LoL! Thats my hope! To get to the point where the rest of me looks so amazing, my breasts get a pass! I have no idea how big I got when I was pregnant...I stopped wearing bras the last month because I just couldnt afford to buy any and was pretty sure I was going to strangle myself to death with the ones I had. But I could touch them with my chin when I put my head down...they were that big.
Which is also why I think they look so horrible now...they got insanely big when I was pregnant, and then poof gone, and my skin just never ever recovered from that. Its been 18 years now, so safe to say they arent bouncing back. I cant wear any sort of push up bra, cause I just dont have anything to actually push up! But padded bras...those are my bestest friends!

No, you need to contribute! Did your boobs disappear when you lost weight?
Nah she stayed with me;)

I'm down 45# and 2 band sizes. My cup size has stayed the same, but I'm 56 and the girls are sagging. Is there an exercise to get them back where they belong?

That's the good thing about being an A-cup - you are used to not having boobs.
I have serious envy for my best friend though, who is super tiny (even after childbirth) and yet has an amazing rack. Genetics can be evil sometimes.0 -
It depends on whether your boobs are from genetics or because you were fat. If you genetically have large boobs, they'll probably stay close to the same size, which seems to be the case if you've already lost 50 lbs and they haven't changed.
EDIT: As an example, my weight has fluctuated from 105 lbs (in high school) to 140 lbs, now 130. My boobs were always a solid C. I'm 5'8 though so I was never overweight, so there wasn't really a question about my boobs being from fat.0 -
I had a baby 1 year ago and my boobs got way bigger when I breastfed. After that, they kinda deflated a little, but it actually gave them a better shape IMO. I started with 52lbs to lose with 21lbs remaining now and they have gotten smaller throughout the process. Let's hope I don't end up with none lol.0

Actually they did deflate. They're completely flat on top so unless I wear a push up bra with a lot of padding, I'm nearly flat chested.0 -

Mine is similar to your experience, only I have around 30 more pounds to lose. I was a 38GG at highest weight and after 27 lbs am a 36F (I think, not buying anything until I have to). I really look forward to being able to shop for bras IN a store so that I can try them on, instead of hoping the online ones fits comfortably.
In relation to how much is lost, breast tissue includes glandular as well as fat so how much/how dense the layers are will have an impact. I think that people who don't lose much have more glandular tissue than those who lament the shrinking.

just out of curiosity, if men are mostly the sexist objectifying pigs that they are. why are women concerned about the size of their breasts?? surely they should be only for the functionality....any other reason would be shallow right? surely?0
