    No, the chest didn’t budge at all, I would have liked to have lost some there but like they say, we can’t spot reduce 😬 I have dense breast tissue though so nothing I do short of a surgical reduction will make any difference. Although I did lose some backfat so my band size fits better and by exercising I improved my posture so I feel I carry the chest weight more evenly balanced now and it doesn’t bring down my shoulders and cause back pains so that’s been a plus 😊

    I have always had proportionally large breasts, I lost a lot of weight (from obese to normal, BMI). I didn't lose any proportional cup sizes (band size went from 34 to 28) until I lost the last 5-10 pounds, then they deflated like day old party balloons. I have a lot of glandular tissue, I have struggled with oversupply breastfeeding all my kids, so my breasts have a lot of mass that isn't just fat.

    There is hope yet if boob loss is your goal. If it's not.... :wink:

    Thank you so much for you answer! I am going through a period where I feel I can’t take it anymore. Since the beginning of 2019, I started having terrible shoulder and neck pain.its terrible and my doctor doesn’t seems to get it. I am 5’11. 200 lbs. and wear a 38GG. I think surgical path is the only way 😞
    Congratulations on your achievement. You look fantastic.

    😂 I suppose I could probably lose some if I got down to a really really low weight but I’m happy at 167 lbs and have no intention of going any lower 😅 good bras and good posture have made a world of difference though so I’m good 😁

    Wow then we do have a similar body shape! I have a smaller band size and a larger cup size though. I’d recommend going to a website called “Breakout Bras” and follow their instructions to measure your true bra size. Even if you’ve been measured before, just try it, most women are wearing the band size too big and the cup size too small. After I did that and found out my real size, I bought bras/bikinis on eBay from the UK for about $20 each. Finding my true size helped so much because I learned that the main support is supposed to come from the band and not put the weight on the shoulders. My main exercise is running and this helps strengthen my core muscles to improve my posture. I wear an underwire bra and a soft sports bra on top of that for running and also practice good running form.

    :'( They closed down this Wendy’s location that was so close to me! I’ll miss it dearly!

    But on another note... Wendy’s now has breakfast! The maple bacon chicken croissant and the seasoned potato wedges are my favorites, and their coffee is pretty good too! I like to go get it after I go for an early morning run even though I have to drive to another location now :)
