nicolebishop91 25 Posted June 28, 2013 So... Ladies post op. I am having surgery on the 15th of july(YAY!). But the one thing on my mind is support. Not the human contact kind either... although I think my husband wouldn't mind the job. I need some advice on what to do for brassieres? I don't want to have to go out and buy a new bra every few weeks. I had thought of just getting a sports bra, but I hate the uni-boob look. So any and all advice would be helpful. What you did? how fast you lost your boobage? If you even lost that much? Thanks ladies! 1 ladykatie_ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LilBoo007 491 Posted June 29, 2013 Laugh if you want but in the beginning when I lost a lot of weight I didn't have money for new bras so I rolled up a pair of socks and stuffed it!!! Later on I bought some on eBay real cheap Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cfergie911 90 Posted June 29, 2013 Walmart has sport bras that feel like a real bra. They also separate in the middle so you dont have a uniboob. They are super comfy too. 1 nicolebishop91 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ElleG 394 Posted June 29, 2013 Lol! I'm still wearing my same bras 3 months out I just have to tighten then. My boobs are smaller and deflated but I'm okay with that. Lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JustJenn 542 Posted June 29, 2013 I just bought 2 good bras from VS right now lol after work I knew I needed a new one. My boobs were no longer fitting the bras I had. I lasted in the ones I had and super old ones and sport bras. I would rather spend money on cloths. I'm 11 months and needed bras desperately. I went from 50D to 36C. 1 Nancyisgettinghealthy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ajustice 484 Posted June 29, 2013 Still wearing the same bras they just fit alot better now. Mine were spilling out and I just hated buying more and I got to wearing sports bras that were more like regular bras just had compression. I haven't bought anything new except scrubs. I can't wait til I can walk into VS and pick out something super cute. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I didn't know how to ask for a bra fitting but if course everyone there was super sweet and helped me fit a great fit and great styles!... It's so weird though!

SoccerMomma73 1,867 Posted June 29, 2013 In a strange bra sizing quirk, I've gone from 46D to 40 DD. I guess they girls aren't shrinking as fast as the rest of me! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lou:) 110 Posted June 29, 2013 I have been using the bra genie. If that's what it's called. They were from an infomercial but now they sell them at Wal-Mart and walgreens or cvs. I have large knockers 42ddd. They offer just enough support with just one on and no uniboob. If I'm going to the gym I put two on for extra support and then it will work like a sports bra. Also, they are stretchy so I have not had to buy new ones yet.
