    It's not my sole reason but one of many wonderful effects of weight loss so far! After nursing my second child I was in a 38G for ages and ages. Having lost 25 pounds my greatest NSV was buying a warners bra from Walmart for the first time in 3 years! 36DD. After my last one came from a specialty shop an hour away from home and cost me $230 I am over the moon! I'm hoping to lose another 15 - 20 pounds and if I could get down to a 34 C I would be ecstatic.

    I was a 38HH (uk) when I started, now my 32G's are just half full.
    Editted cause mfp ate the rest of my comment.
    As I was saying, I kind of miss my big boobs books but I DON'T miss the back pain or not being able to button up shirts. Good luck to you!

    It's a bittersweet victory! Originally a 42 G-H, now a 34/36 DD. Clothes look a lot better on me without the giant cans, though.

    I relate. This was one of my biggest motivators -- inconvenient size for sports and for life, and related back pain. I started at 42G. 60 lbs later and I'm at 36DD. Things are much improved and I still have 20 more pounds to go. I'm hoping I'll see some more reduction, but at least they're proportional to my body now. My current thought is that I'll hit goal weight, maintain for two years, and then schedule a lift if necessary. I'm determined to have sporty boobs. :)

    I was like a 36D and was just measured recently as a 34D. I wasn't aware at all my ribcage had shrunk, guess I had more back fat than I thought

    Hey you.. I started out at 38 DD and now I'm a 36 A. Breasts are mostly fat so you'll lose them when you lose the fat.

    Not true for everybody. Some breasts have more fat than mammary gland, others are equal in both, and some have more glandular tissue than fat. It is a genetic thing so losing body weight doesn't guarantee that she will lose a lot of breast tissue as well.

    I wish....4 stone down and gone from a 42c to a 38d....actually increased a cup.size.

    But your boobs still shrank, just not as dramatically as your band. The cup size is just a code for the difference in inches between band and breast.

    42C = 42" band & 45" breast

    38D = 38" band & 42" breast

    not always true. Im the same cup size I was when I started but did lose a few band sizes(due to back fat).some women have fattier breast so they will lose size and some have denser tissue so they may not lose as much if any size,

    When I started in my weight loss journey I was a 44 H... down over 100lbs... I am currently a 34 D... so it can happen...

    I lost about 2 cup sizes and am now a 34C/32D. However, they stayed mostly the same volume until the very end of my weight loss. (Seriously, I think my last 2 lbs came straight off my chest.) I love them smaller. Bras are so much more comfortable, and I'm much less self-conscious w/o a bra!

    same, it's about the ratio of breast tissue to fat. mine don't fluctuate much with my weight, they're also too dense for mammograms so i have to do ultrasounds instead. i don't mind though, i like 'em.

    This grandma is just popping in to say in my case it wasn't a reduction as much as a deflation.

    Well, yeah. I'm 46 with 2 breastfed kids. Hence my desire for a lift. :)

    Links are fine, as long as they're not selling something or (I assume) to an MFP competitor.

    One of my reason for losing weight is to try and reduce my bust size a bit. Long story short, I've already had a lift and minor reduction but now I'm wishing I'd reduced more. The dr won't do another true lift so he may be doing liposuction and some tucking. But I wanted to try and get down to closer to what my ideal weight would be before I do this.

    My theory is if you are already a small band size with a large cup size you won't see a big reduction in size because you are one of those with more tissue than fat. At 170 and 5'3" I was a 36J, at 160 I went down to a 34J, and now that I'm close to 150 I think I will go down one more size to maybe a 34K or a 32J. I'm kind of in between band sizes. But it's not a huge change because I'm more tissue than fat there.
