So, today I went into Lane Bryant to find some clothes that would fit (I have gone down in size from a women's 26/28 to an 18/20.) While I was in the store, I decided that I would have one of the associates measure my bra size, since my "girls" no longer were fitting comfortably in my old bras. The last time that I was measured (about 3 years ago), I measured a 48 DD. When the associate measured me today, I am now a 42 D! That's a HUGE decrease in size. For the first time EVER, I was able to find a bra with underwire (which I NEVER buy) that I absolutely Loooove, and so do the "girls". They are sitting up "smiling" and happy.:love:

I am so excited, I just can't stop feeling myself and how nice the bra feels on me!:smooched:

    Way to go! I am currently a 42DDD and really hoping to get down to a around a 36C or D... fingers crossed! I know how you you feel though, I recently have to "downsize" my panties and am ECSTATIC about the fact that I got less junk in "my trunk" if you know what I mean ;-) From one shrinking woman to another... again way to go!
