Will i loose my big girls?



Recommended Posts

Hello all, I'm a month post op and refused to weigh myself after a few weeks stall and now, I am letting the doctors office tell me my weight cos I get frustrated when the scale is still while I'm pushing myself so hard to exercise. Anyway, I wanted to know from those that were before me if I will loose my boobs as I'm losing weight? My hubby is worried that I will lose all the weight and my boobs will be the only things that people will notice fast. Maybe I might need a breast reduction. I am a big woman and so are my boobs but if I loose the weight and not my boobs then I will be shapeless. I don't think that I will like the sight of that.

I lost about 61lbs and counting ( I havent been able to weigh myself in a couple weeks cause my scale broke). But anyway my boobs feel and look like to me that they deflated :( I was a 42ddd. Now I dont know what I am I guess I should get measured.

I am down 70 lbs and 10 lbs to goal, and have gone from a 44DD to a 36C/D and they have deflated! I'm ok with the smaller size for my smaller body but at some point I'm going to need a lift!

Everyone is different. Some people lose their boobs first and some people don't. I had 36dd's when I was a size 2/4 and 110 pounds. I've lost 50 pounds and I am losing band size but not cup size.

When you gain, where do you gain? When you were of a more healthy weight, did you have big boobs?

Wherever you gained it last, you will lose it first. Things won't snap back to where they were in your teens, but every pound list, no matter where from is a pound healthier for you!

I was a 48H, I am now down 55 pounds, and just bought new bras, I measured and fit into a 44DDD... I too have big girls...... when I came home upset because they were actually shrinking... my husband rolled his eyes and said "I don't know why you are so upset, I AM THE ONE who should be upset about this, they are my favorite toys."..... I am scared they will be saggy little deformed deflated Water balloons, and I know I do not and will probably never be able to afford to fix them.... so yes I am in a panic over htis thought..... just gonna buy the best bras I can afford... right now I am loving the butterfly bras I bought, they also help with my back fat.... this body is changing.... but it is not all good.... but not he other hand we don't want loose a bunch of weight and have huge girls.... we would look cartoonish if we did.

I had to laugh at your DH's comments.....I'm expecting something similar LOL

I'm a little concerned about the girls.....I already have one a little deformed from a lumpectomy....I hate to think what it'll look deflated LOL [but, really, if that's an issue, I'll get a lift]

I have lost almost 70 lbs, I was a 42G now I am a 38G only the band size has gone done so far. My DH declares that I must have been born with boobs lol. When we met I was 15 and weighed 103 lbs and wore a size 34dd. I hope mine get smaller, I have very bad back, shoulder and neck pain from the girls. If not I will be considering a breast reduction forsure.

Oh gosh. I'm sitting here giggling reading your posts. I too have big girls. I described it to someone as 'my boobs walking in the door and five minutes later my body follows'. I live in Vermont and travel to New Jersey when I need more bras, a place my NJ sister goes to, you know the one where they look in your eyes, squeeze each breast and call out "Harry bring me the 48G from the top shelf." 100 dollars a bra.

I can't wait to have smaller breasts. I do plan on having a reduction, when I'm all done (surgery date 7/16).

Seriously, if you get rashes or back aches or dents in your shoulders, see a plastic surgeon. Most insurance companies pay for reductions.

I am looking forward to buying a smaller sexy bra instead of the ones I have now where if I cut them in half, I have two hats.

I am a little over 100 lbs down so far & my chest is like two deflated balloons. I went from a 52G to a 42DDD & still deflating. I am going to need a serious lift by the time this is all over. :(

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
