Mine went from DDD to a small C the first month. Flat and droopy. A few months ago someone said theirs looked like streetlights now. That's what mine look like! The balloon analogy was great too!! But i gotta say, they look nice in a bra, so I don't know if I'll go for a lift. I'm 51. And as of now, I'm kinda tired of surgeries. ;-)

Thanks ladies!! If mine don't get smaller I will be disappointed for sure! I've always had big boobs so I don't want them to shrink to grapes. Ha! Loved the balloon comment! I'm scheduling surgery for the end of this month and I'm excited but so nervous.

I have lost 55 lbs and gone from a 38I to a full 36H, so barely any change. I have another 35 to lose and I sure hope some of that is in the boobs! I had giant boobs even when I was skinny and in jr high. so I shouldn't be surprised. It's genetic. I have a consult appt this month for a reduction I hope to get in August. I am soooo looking forward to it!

I don't fit into any of my bras anymore and I had really nice lane Bryant bras too. I'm sure breast feeding and pumping for two kids didn't help in addition to the WLS.

I call my boobs "the sandbags" ugh!!!

I've been using genie bras for now. I too realize that plastics will be in future when I hit goal. I'm just over 3 months post op and I've lost 70lbs so far.

Ill take sandbags any day as long as I'm loosing!

I too am so looking forward to change in this area. I'm currently a 42DD. And to be honest sometimes (it depends on what bra I wear) I can feel like the hulk in that area so I prob could use a slightly bigger size. After breast feeding four kids they are already saggy and kinda shaped like a mitliton.

Im 4 1/2 months out from surgery and have lost 52 lbs. My boobs seem to fit in my bras the same but feel a little different to the touch. They used to feel stuffed full now they feel a bit looser (just like my a**). Im happy to have not lost cup size only band sizes so far but even if I do its ok. Im a shorty with an hourglass shape so hopefully everything continues to go down proportionately. But either way I look better than I did before surgery ;)

I know what you mean about additional surgery, I will be 53 in Feb. At least I will be able to buy pretty padded bras from VICTORIA SECRETS!

When I was a slim teenager I so wished for the enormous boobs I have now. Who knew I'd have to gain 100lbs to get 'em. My large belly cancels out the big full breasts. Ha! I know they will deflate to a full C if I get back to my ideal weight and I will be soooooo happy with that!

My girls are the only place I can see weightloss and it's depressing! They went from looking like melons to fried eggs nailed to a wall...

o...o i don't think i can bear to see my boobies go, i mean i love them i will be so sad, i just want them to be maybe more... shaped i guess. I am a 40c or d right now, i think one is bigger than the other because one always fits the others like see you bro its too small in here and tries to pop out on me. Maybe it sounds weird but i've had big boobs since i was like in elementary school so maybe its a genetic thing idk ill have to find out

I've lost 122 lbs and went from a 44DDD to a 38G so they aren't as big on the sides but I've kept most of them.

You went UP in cup size?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
