Losing your curves :(

Ladies....anyone else experience noticeable weight loss in the breast/butt area? I started out at a full C/small D cup and after losing 18 lbs (I'm 5'2 125lbs) I'm now much closer to a small C/large B :( When I was heavier I thought of larger breasts as the concellation prize of weight gain and that I'd much rather be thinner even if I have to give up a cup size or so...but now that I did it, I'm missing my former cleavage. I know it's all about the ratio chest-waist-hips...but man I definitely feel like I'm in need of a new push-up bra....haha maybe the VS Bombshell will be my next investment...

    Sounds exactly like me! Sucks :/ but worth it!

    Went from a C to a B
    but got a nice *kitten*! Lunges and squats helped me earn my bubble butt

    Just go buy some really sexy new lingerie and underwear, maybe that will help? Great work with the weight loss!

    Jenbit, you are lucky!! :)

    Sunshine - I'll have to work on my backside and earn myself a butt like you did! Being Asian tends to lead to having a flat rear... :(

    I lost so much of my boobs! Kinda mad about it. I need to invest in a super good push-up bra. The other day, my roommate couldn't believe how padded my bra is!!

    I had the same problem and I found that going out and getting fitted for a few new bras made me feel better about it :)

    My cup size has stayed the same but I've lost about an inch in the band size. Time to go bra shopping, for sure.

    I'm weird - in a way I am kind of looking forward to losing my curves. I've always had a petite frame before my weight gain. Up until I was 20 - I was 95lbs. I am only 5'0 and I was a 32A. I know my losing my curves, I am also losing my weight. I never had a chest until my weight gain (36B now). It would be nice to keep my B's at my weight goal (105) at a size of 32, but I doubt I will!

    I really wish that was a problem for me. I love my curves but I'm fed up with back pains caused by large chestedness and I was hoping to lose the girls a bit but almost 20 lbs later still a DD which is too big for me. I don't have much weight left to lose though, so I'm stuck.

    Those who are genetically full busted will likely stay so after weight loss. Those of us who got busty because we were overweight, sorry they will go since they were just fat to begin with. I was sad at first but after figuring how much more healthy I am now, it's all good.

    Me! My bras have all gotten too large on me, and I wasn't very big to begin with. :/ It sucks, but that's just the price of weight loss!

    When I was heavier, depending on the time of the day, I'd see the shadow of my boobs "poking through" the shadow of my shoulders on the ground. One of my odd NSVs is that I don't see the shadow of my boobs anymore. The silhouette of my shadow no longer shows my boobs, unless I stand sideways.

    My boobs shrank in proportion to the rest of my body. They look much better now. They're not as saggy, and my areolae aren't as stretched out. I went from 40C/D to 34C. (I tell you, 34C cups are much smaller than 40C ones!)

    I'm hoping they will shrink to 32C and STAY THERE... We'll see.

    Yup! I'm the same way....worst part is - I lose it from the top down...so, right now I have bigger hips/thighs than my chest...but it will even out. For now, I just look like an eggplant - but a leaner eggplant :)

    Have fun buying push ups, there's so much out there....trust me, we're way better off losing our cleavage but being healthier!

    When I gained weight, I loved that my boobs got bigger, but now that I've lost most of the weight, I'm COMPLETELY flat :( It's okay though cause I'm going to invest in some permanent pushup :)

    Deep squats develop an *kitten*. But you have to use heavy weight.

    At my heaviest I was a 36D. I am currently wearing a 34C but they are getting loose, so I may end up a small C/large B and band size 32.

    I have lost 42 lbs., within the last year and a half, very slowly. I am finally now, seeing the boobies leave. I have already gone from a D from C. I think if I hit goal, I'll be a B cup. I know that it's a good trade off, but it doesn't make it easy! I love my obese boobs!

    I thought I would lose weight up top...but surprisingly the only thing that changed about my bra size was the band - I went from a 36D to a 34D. My butt on the other hand....needs some of those squats. I was kind of proud of my butt when I was heavier..:/ haha. One thing I did notice was that I felt 'curvier' after losing some weight in my waist. I finally feel like I have hips! :D

    I'm sorta like Jen and hanaibo. I thought with when I gained weight I'd get really big boobs, but that didn't happen. Just the band grew and actually cup shrank. When I was thin I used to be a 32DD, then I gained weight I went to 34D and ended up a 36D. Now my bandwidth is shrinking with the weightloss, and gaining my curves back.

    I've had to tighten my bra straps as I've lost a few cm from my bust and ribcage measurements but they seem to have got higher since I've been doing the 30 day shred as I think it's strengthened my pecs underneath a little. If that makes sense!! My cup size is DD

    Yes, definitely - I think I lost a cup size already (DD to a D) as well as inches around, but I'm kinda glad. Being bigger does get in the way - I've always envied girls that can wear halter tops & tank tops with little or nothing underneath and not have to buy a holster! I have always been curvy but am actually looking forward to being a little less curvy :) I don't think I'll ever end up with a straight body like a guy anyway - hehe. Good luck to you - I like the idea of some new, pretty lingerie also - it's a real confidence booster.

    Wow Hannah! You are busty for an Asian chick...people usually tell me that but you've got even more!! It's the prize for not being super thin... :)

    LOL I think they are from my dad's side (his mom was top heavy and my mom is an A-cup). Sometimes it's really awkward to have big boobs and be short though :/

    I've gone from a 42c to a 36dd, lol. I'm sure it will change though, I have a lot more to lose.
