Bra ideas needed

in Health and Weight Loss
So I've lost 18 of 65 pounds so far. My bras are now too big in both the cup and band. Decent bras are expensive and if I buy new ones now they will surely be too big again in 20 pounds.

I could go the thrift store route, but the thought of wearing a strangers undergarment is really gross. I could wear a sports bra but they look awful under clothes.

Help!

    Awe. I really do sometimes when I have a tight undershirt. But I am large breasted and it's embarrassing to go braless unless I wear many layers.

    Target. The Maidenform ones aren't expensive and are ok. They won't last as long as good ones but hopefully you don't need them to last long.

    Yeah but that squishy boob look really isn't attractive on me.

    I will check out the Maidenform bras. Any other brand suggestion would be appreciated.

    I hate bras and only wear them when I have to get dressed up formally, and not always then. I wear tank tops, some actually have cups. I do have some sports-bras but they are rather hard to put on. But then I'm from the era when women were burning their bras. Like the others say, buy some cheap bras and celebrate your weight loss.

    I'm in love with bralettes at the moment because they're usually half the price of normal bras, crazy comfy, and I don't out-shrink them as quickly, but depends how much support you need. My breasts are definitely not small (just small for the huge band size... sigh) and they work amazingly well for me, but my 40DD and ??F family members wouldn't even bother with them.

    Off to Google bralette...

    Ok. Those look really comfy and it would feel great not to wear an underwire.

    I'd wear bralettes all the time if I had small boobs.

    I would consider buying one bra that fits you well now and just wash it everyday. I can’t afford to buy multiple bras while losing either.

    I would look for sales and buy a couple of bras. I like Bali bras and they are often on sale.

    Torrid and Lane Bryant actually have bralettes now for the bigger boobed. I just wait til they have sales, especially flash sales online that I get emails for, and order that way. Get them way cheaper.
