CHM 1,009 Posted April 29, 2016 Holy crap, that tool put my cup size at a DD! Nooooo way in hell is that accurate. I'm currently wearing a C in the band size it recommended and believe me, there is room to spare in those cups. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kaitlynm 335 Posted April 29, 2016 I finally decided I had to replace my bras when the girls continually kept slipping out the bottom. I was down 7 sizes so I guess that makes sense. Having terrible time trying to find sports bras. I'm a full D cup and XL bras are not designed for that cup size. Larger ones are too loose around the chest and the girls keep slipping out. I'm sure I give people at the gym something to talk about. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nurse_Lenora 903 Posted April 29, 2016 Sports bras are the bane of my existence! Kaitlynm have you tried CWX or enell? They fit well and make bras that have shoulder straps not the Y back. The Y back bras kill me because they creep up and hurt my neck...I only wear ones with regular bra type straps but sometimes they are super hard to find Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pillar2butterfly 391 Posted April 29, 2016 I'm saddened that mine resemble smooshed danglehoppers and no longer anything that resembles breasts. At least I'm now a 34 and no longer a 42...still a C, just need to hike those bad boys up more. someone said they roll theirs up like socks! I almost have to fling them over my shoulders to shower to get them out of the way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

liannatx 897 Posted April 29, 2016 Wow... that says I need a 36 I, lol. No way. I was 35 in on the band and 44 in around the bust, but I have always worn a D or DD depending on my weight. The one I am wearing now fits like a dream and is a DD, I imagine they would just drip to the bottom of an H or I cupsize and leave the top full of air ; ) I also have to bend over and pour them into the bra... I see a breast lift in my future dreams. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Y back bras kill me because they creep up and hurt my neck...I only wear ones with regular bra type straps but sometimes they are super hard to find I will have to look for those. I have the opposite problem with the straps. All the shirts today seemed to be designed for racer back bras. Fashion verses practicality will always be a problem I guess no matter what size you are.

chrisredjeep 357 Posted April 30, 2016 When I started off in July 16 2015 I was a 42 dd . October 23 rd I went to a specialist boutique bra shop and came out with 36 ff . The difference in how I looked was amazing. Went back to the same shop last week and now I am a 34 ff . I was never one for being measured but these woman know their stuff and I am delighted with how my bosoms look under a t shirt or blouse. Go and be measured, the bit of embarrassment you may feel is worth it for how you will look after Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OutsideMatchInside 10,166 Posted May 1, 2016 For the person complaining about buying sports bras as a D cup, try it being a G cup. I have to get sports bras that are band and cup size. Not XL or 2x. They offer no support for running. They are okay for yoga. I have one from lane bryant and one glamouress. If you have larger breasts you need a bra that has high coverage in the front to prevent pop out. My sports bras come almost to my collar bone, with a sheer mesh to keep those girls in place. I'm spending $60 a pop on bras, but it's worth it. My silhouette looks great, curves for days. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
