Since I've had surgery, my breasts went from a 44D to a 38 small c :(

And now I can't find a good bra! You'd think I'd would be easy. But, all the bras I try make me look like a saggy elderly woman :(

I know a Breast lift is in my future, but not anytime soon. I'm 6 mo post op.

What do you use for a good bra?

About fifty pounds down, I caved in and went to a foundation shop. I have gone from a 48D to a 36B and can buy regular bras now. But I don't get the $8 Walmart ones anymore. I go online and buy good ones with some construction to them. So, I guess it's underwire and padding holding me together. I am surprised at my age of 63, that I am not sagging all that much. I heard on the plastic surgeon show "Botched" that the perfect distance from collarbone to nipple should be 21cm. I am still hanging in there at 22cm. I am definitely happy about that. I won't need a breast lift.

I went to Victoria's Secret about a month ago and bought two bras -- a nude one and a black one. One is 34DD and the other 34DDD.

They give great shape to what is no longer shaped the way it used to be shaped. ;)

I call them Thuh Bra and Thee Bra. ;)

I'll have to try them, I've never been there to buy bras, only lotion

What about bathing suits with no wire? I'm gonna hang like an orangoutang lol

Victoria's Secret is the best place for bras. They will measure you and bring you different styles.

      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.
