Debi Amador 120 Posted May 29, 2014 When I was fat I wore a 42DD. I have lost about 55 pounds and I needed a new bra. I went and bought a 38DD and I have found that the cup size is wrong, I am falling over the top of the bra. I might need to find a 38DDD/38E. Has anybody heard of this? Could my cup size really be larger now? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Madam Reverie 2,958 Posted May 29, 2014 Totally. I was very confused about this, too. I went from a 42DD/E to a 36/38 F..... Who knew this would happen. It was our friend on here Indigo, who told me that the more we lose our cup size goes up. I can't get my head around an F.. Let alone a G if my back size drops any more! 1 Debi Amador reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mickally 95 Posted May 29, 2014 Yes my cup size has gone up a size. It is very strange to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bufflehead 6,358 Posted May 29, 2014 The cup size represents the difference/proportion between the measurement around your rib cage under your breast and the measurement around the fullest point of your breast. So if you lose proportionally more around your rib cage, then yes your cup size will go up. But if you lose proportionally more around the fullest part/top of your breast, than your cup size will go down as you lose weight. So it just depends on luck/genetics I guess. Since it looks like you have more weight to lose (from your ticker anyway) your cup size might go back down even. This weight loss stuff is crazy! 2 ladykatie_ and LipstickLady reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chelenka 827 Posted May 29, 2014 I was a 42 GG in the Elomi bras pre surgery. Now I'm a 36 G. My boobs are like two deflated balloons. :-( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Luvin_Life125 558 Posted May 29, 2014 I am afraid or what will happen to my boobs once I start dropping weight post op. I am a 40H now. I may have to forgo surgery to remove the extra skin and instead pay to have my boobs put back up where they belong! I have always been busty and even in high school I wore a DD+.

KayleeC14 159 Posted May 29, 2014 Lucky! I wish my cup size went up...I went from a 50DDD to a 46C lol what gets me is the sagging more than the cup size. Hopefully when the weight is all off I can qualify for a breast lift and a Tummy Tuck. (Fingers are crossed) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Could my cup size really be larger now? I too went from a 44DD to now a 38DD and i spill a little but i think its from all the sagging. I have to pull all that up into my bra. Just excess skin, i dont think its thats ive grown but shrunk with all the extras. Just my thought anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
