i go in the other direction. mine have always been large and sagging. i LOOK FORWARD to having them significantly reduced and lifted! i actually asked my plastic surgeon how small he could go...

i have been top heavy all my teenage and adult life and now that i'm losing weight i'm also weight training and strength training and i look forward to being seriously toned, fit, strong, and small enough chested to just throw on a tank top!

Random update. I bought a new bra today after my post. It was a 38 like I suspected, but it was a DD. LOL.The boobs are still smaller than they used to be when I was a 44D. :)

I was a DD and now am an A. And most of the cup is just stuffed with all my extra skin.. Without the saggy skin I would probably be in a training bra because there's really no substance to them...just skin. And to tell you the truth I don't miss them AT ALL. I've never enjoyed trying to support the sisters my whole life. If I were to have plastics, I would get the skin removed and definitely not get augmentation. GOODBYE sisters, HELLO brothers!

Mine were so deflated after weight loss that I could pull the skin up like when you pull pantyhose away from your legs. They were that deflated. When I was on my back, those deflated sacks took a beeline for my armpits. Disgusting!

I had a breast lift, no implants, because I didn't want to be a bigger size, nor did I want to sign myself up to have surgery every 7-10 years. Those implants have a shelf life, and even if you get them at age 30, you're facing 5-6 replacement surgeries by the time you retire from working. Uhm, no thanks; that wasn't the choice for me. I am completely happy with just the relocation and not the implants, and I returned to my original, pre-fat bra size. My girls are situated right where they should be, and I don't have to wear a bra either. I still do though. My momma raised me that way. =)

There are new implants that will last a lifetime if you don't have complications. I'm the same size I was before I lost weight. I love my new boobs! :)

@@deedadumble, congrats on your new boobs! Implants just wasn't the choice for me. I have not heard of lifelong implants, but I even have a hard time accepting lifelong titanium staples in my body.

Implants have been around for it seems a gazillion years and if they've finally come up with one that doesn't require replacement, that's great. I know about the "gummy bear" implants that won't leak even when pierced, but never of any that can be permanently left in the body. If they've invented one....Cool. Yay for technology!

      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.
