boobs are getting smaller already :-(



Recommended Posts

So I am originally a 38D which is not big for my size...problem is 2 weeks post op my bras are not fitting any more. It upsets me because I have a lot of bras (expensive ones from victorias secret) just because I think they are cute and make me feel good so I bought alot over the past few years. So far they are now loose on the tightest clip when they used to be snug on the loosest clip. Did anyone else lose weight in what they consider their smallest area first. I am pear shaped.

Um I have love that I got my sleeve, am wouldn't change it for the world. That being said my boobs are not small then they where when I was in high school before I gained all my weight. I was naturally before weight gain a 34D a large D after I gained I was 40F and a large F. Now 7 1/2 months later and almost 100 pounds down I got measured at Victoria Secret I am a 36B, oh my gosh a B. I actually teared up when she told. My boobs have always been one of my favorate things about my body and now well they are gone. I am learning to deal with it and am saving to get them bigger and lifted. However again I would choose small boobs and being healthy over my big boobs any day, but it is a bit depressing I will say, lol!

Me too! I've only lost a drop in the bucket, but it's boobs! My bras are all loose around my milk jugs. :(. There's a lift in my future...I see it clearly.

I was sleeved 5/13 and I noticed it within the first week. I also wore a 38 D (guilty of buying wayyy to many bras from vs!). So far, I actually don't mind! It's like I can breath easier with less weight on my chest... BUT if they shrink to an A, we may have problems. ;)

Are you losing in the cup size as well?? Bc if it is just the band and not the cup size you should still be happy!!

Janice, If only the band are getting to big use pins on the sides to make smaller. If the cups get to big you have to replace and at that point you learn to not to buy expensive bras until you are at goal. Or you can buy cup fillers. They look like gel filled boobs that fit in your bra and fill out the cup. Hope this helps.

I'm not sure because the girls dont fill in the bra anymore but it may be because of the change in band that is doing that too...ill probably hit up vs in a few weeks to be measured...probably wont buy anymore bras from there though til I'm closer to goal

Same thing is happened to me. Formerly 42DD, down 40 lbs and I'm 38C. On the positive, hubby likes the smaller boobs.

      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.
