They were the first to go when I started losing. At first I was upset, now I love my itty bitty's. Bras are so much cheaper, the selection is better, I don't have to find industrial strength sports bras to do any workout, and no more worries about buttons popping open. And the greatest thing: I haven't work underwire in over a year!!!!!! Yes, no more underwire!

I lost 50 pounds over 15 years ago. Have maintained that loss since, feel good, look good. Anyway, about a year ago I went to see a breast oncologist; luckily it is not because they found anything, but I have a family history that suggests closer monitoring. As part of the exam the doctor did a breast exam. As she's doing it she's vaguely frowning and then asks if I had lost weight. Always eager to boast I say yes and tell her. She says "oh. I wondered why your breasts were...foldy.". She was vaguely embarrassed by her wording but I thought and still they it is funny.
So that's me - ol' foldy boobs.15 -

I had mine done in 2009 and 2011. DD. I lost 45 pounds so far. One good thing. I won’t be losing my boobs.3

I've lost 80 pounds so far, and yes my boobs have shrunk, but only a tiny amount. My bras fit better cup wise, though I do need a smaller band size ( I started out at 44DD, now I'm 40DD)3

The selection is better? Please point me toward this magical place. I'm a 36A and the bra industry only offers me bras in black, white, and on a good day beige, and they're all padded within an inch of their lives because small-breasted women all clearly want to look bigger I guess.4 -
I'm going to offer only disappointment here, but I lost my weight back in 2013-2014 and my boobs went from what I guess was probably a EE/F (wore very poorly fitted bras back then) to a properly fitted 32D. if I raise my arms above my head they look like maybe a B cup, but the extra saggy skin makes extra cup sizes. They look reasonable in a bra, apart from being like ski ramps. But naked? Eesh.
I'm also only 27 now, so youth was on my side as much as it could be. You should maybe start trying to like your new boobs, they might not change much now.
Having said that, it depends on your individual skin and genetics. My skin might just be bad at bouncing back once stretched.4 -

This is a great question as I'm losing and am a double d but I'm sure the boobs will go first.0

Not to knocker big boobs, but I’m happier smaller.
Please tell me this was intentional, @nowine4me!

At a 36A.... You are in bralette territory. Basically the stores that cater to teen girls - that's where your new bra size is. I'm at a 34AA (at most), and wear a size small in bralettes. You gotta go to your new lingerie section. No more shopping in the women's and misses departments. The bralette section at Walmart has a good 15-20 different styles at about $5-10 each, Target has a larger selection but run slightly more expensive, $8-15 each. Welcome to the joy and frustration of having to relearn clothing shopping.5 -

36D and the majority are still padded within an inch of their lives No idea why.2 -

I’m a 34D I also don’t like padding all the time, I have a couple from Victoria Secret you can find them for $20 during the annual sales.... probably less if you’re from America.1 -

It's not your fault, and you have nothing to be sorry about. This is a valuable conversation to have because it effects many women.9 -

I am also 27, 2 kids and done with babies. I'm hoping push ups and chest flys will be my saving grace!1
