    Eat less or get a better fitting bra

    If you're talking about the bulge you get under the band, that's just a sign that your bra actually fits :wink: It will be less noticeable at lower body fat (attained by eating at a calorie deficit), but depending on your body's fat distribution and how low you're willing/able to go, you may never get rid of it completely; a band tight enough to do its job will press into any spare fat on your ribcage.

    OMG. Thank you for saying this. I’m not the OP, but I needed very much to hear this because I’ve been obsessing over that area.

    Just to let you know, minimum healthy intake for a female is 1200.

    If you're referring to the tissue under your arm that may or may not fit into your bra, that is your Tail of Spence. It's part of your breast, not just fat. It may fit inside some "full coverage" bras, but may not fit into other bra styles. Here is a better discussion: https://www.reddit.com/r/ABraThatFits/comments/3h00x7/guide_worried_about_armpit_fat_its_probably_your/

    Depending on your age, our bodies tend to redistribute fat and one of those areas is to the area beneath your under arms. I'm 69 and weigh only 119 pounds at 5' 5". but i now put my fat around my breasts and under my arms as well as on my abdomen. I would love more of a booty !!!! but flat as a pancake down there. that said, do have a professional bra fitting at a specialty store. It's well worth getting the right size bra. I thought I was a 34D and I'm a 32 G !!!!

    Yeah I don't think the OP cares.

    Someone already posted that you can't spot reduce, the OP then disregarded the post and talked about how she's incorporated a chest press. Since somehow she's miraculously figured out a way to contract adipose tissue.

    Lower calories, of course. But also arm and back exercises could help.

    OP has already stated that they're eating under 1200 calories daily. You're suggesting that she eats at an unhealthy level?
    Secondly, you can't spot reduce.
