My girls are totally deflated. Even my b-cup is underfilled. Someone at my group suggested going to a shop in town to be properly fitted and address my particular problems. It's very expensive but I can buy just bra and once I know what to look for I can shop other places.

Victoria's secret will fit & give you info on a card for free also ordering them from there site is cheaper than in stores.

I've done this in the past: get fitted and buy one expensive bra and then buy more via Amazon.

While I'm still in the losing phase, I've bought inexpensive bras at Amazon. I'll do the formal fitting at the lingerie store on my surgiversary in October.

I've found some decent molded cup bras on Groupon. There were 6 for $32. They run a little small - so I need to shrink a couple sizes to fit into them. They are nice for the price.

Go to Lane Bryant and have one of their fit experts help find you the right bra for your new size. You can also buy a band smaller and buy a 3 pack of extenders for $8. This will help as you are shrinking down. Then as u become smaller u can take off the extenders and still have good support.

Spanx bras have been the best for me. Bought them at Lane Bryant . They hide back lines and tuck in the underarm skin. Make look smooth in everything I wear. The only thing bad is they do come up high on my back, so tops with a low back tend to show my bra. So of course then I wear Bali bras. Good luck girls!!

I agree the best thing we can do for looks is have a good fitting bra. I can't imagine going to Victoria Secret to buy a bra. Unheard of in my size. I plan on buying some cheaper ones to get by with until I reach goal but I know I must have a good fit along the way to look and feel best. At 39 pounds gone I am out of some bras I own and some fit great so I have a little time but it will be nice to buy off the rack.

I'm a weirdo and I'm just taking my mom's hand me downs. She had weight loss surgery just over a year ago and we have similar body types so she's just saving her old bras for me if I need them, which I'm sure I will. I guess it's not too weird since it's my mom and all, but still.

I can't wait until I can shop at VS again. I like Lane Bryant and Cacique but it'll feel like progress when I can buy a bra at VS!

You can get free fitting@@Victoria's Secret & look @their clearance&sales online. I got some (demi) style bras for $17. Each w/perfect plus entered code for free shipping.

      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.
