Parvathi 2 Posted November 21, 2005 This may be too much information, but as I've read posts on here about bowel movements, sex and nicked nipples, I'm thinking ya'll can handle this lol. For the past week or so, I've noticed that every time I take off my bra (which is the first thing I do when I walk in the door heh), my breasts hurt. Not like a stabbing pain or anything, but a sagging pain, as if they've been put in a putty machine and pulled. Now, I've lost about 75 lbs, and my measurements around have gone down a good bit (ribcage, under bra), but my cup size is still a whooping big ole G cup. Is it possible that as my frame decreases, this will become a common occurrence (sore breasts I mean, as I know they're gonna sag til I get em cut off)? Has anyone else experienced something like this or am I just a freak? lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Alexandra 55 Posted November 21, 2005 Have you bought new bras? I noticed that my breasts hurt at the end of a day when I'm wearing an ill-fitting bra. They might be aching with Water retention, hormone release, or just with a change of size, but you're not imagining it. I definitely had the same thing. Go invest in a couple of new bras, with the right band size. I went from a 44 F (when I'd admit it) to a 38DD; even if your cup size doesn't change much the band size makes a big different in how it fits. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NJChick 3 Posted November 21, 2005 Your body could be changing with age and the weigh loss, are you near Aunt Flo's visit? Some times that'll do it for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the best me 6 Posted November 21, 2005 Could you be pregnant? I agree...time to bra shop. I get much better support with a smaller band now that I have lost inches at the ribcage/bra band. I'll bet that would help alot. Take good care of the girls!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wheetsin 714 Posted November 21, 2005 I've lost drastic amounts of weight many times and it has never bothered the girls. My guess is that it's more related to your hormones. Fat holds estrogen, and as you lose weight your bosy has to constantly adjust its hormone levels to accomodate (e.g. often when people gain weight, their skill will break out). A lot of women have sore or tender boobs before or during their period (or, as already pointed out, pregnancy). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HarleyNana 10 Posted November 21, 2005 Not to steal your thread, but I can't keep my bra straps up, what gives with that? My cup are filled and the around feels good, weird. My chest, upper boobs, is tender for a few days if I lift something too heavy. Have you lifted something heavy recently? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HeatherGurl 0 Posted November 21, 2005 The only time I have had sore boobs is when I found out I was pregnant... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
paula 4 Posted November 21, 2005 Are you sure there isnt a baby on the way? Sore boobs that lasted more then 2 days are a sure ssign of early pregnancy symptoms for me! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GrizGirl 0 Posted November 21, 2005 In the words of another wise LBT'er -"I could've written this post" Me too--The girls, itch and scratch, and darn it I've noticed they are taking on the shape of a large long banana--not a dancing banana either. The batwings have firmed up along with other parts of my body. Looks like the boobs are just gonna get longer and leaner. I always thought I would be happy if any part of me got longer and leaner--just didn't think it would be the boobs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NJChick 3 Posted November 21, 2005 Pat you sound like you have round shoulders, I have the same thing, can't keep the straps up Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Parvathi 2 Posted November 21, 2005 LOL I love you guys!! My dear hubby had the snip a few years ago, so if I'm preggers, I'm in heaps of trouble hahaha. I'll take myself to the brashop today. I had bought two new ones a while back, but now they're too big .. I just hate sinking $100 (I've only found one shop nearby that carries a 34G and they mark it up heaps) into a new bra when I know I won't be able to get much use out of it :/ Thanks everyone Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
"Nita 0 Posted November 21, 2005 That happens to me every month the wek before my period. I know that hormones change as you loose weight, so maybe it's all hormonal???? Also, if I have had too much caffeine for a few days in a row that will happen. Hope your feeling a little more perky (hehehe sorry...) real soon! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marimaru 7 Posted November 21, 2005 Jess, Another thing you might consider is wearing a semi- loose sportsbra type thing when you take the regular bra off after work. Sometimes mine bother me and putting them back IN a bra seems to help.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
