Boobs and bras. :-)



Recommended Posts

No Bralette is supporting us with DDs plus.

I am a F/G depending on the bra and I do have some bralettes but they don't hold me tight enough to provide comfort around the house or anywhere else. I do have some bralettes, but I layer them over bras when I wear tanks and they help cover loose skin under my arms.

Yandy lingerie is cheap, you can buy it while you are losing and if you only wear it once, who cares. They have babydolls for $13 a lot of times. Look for the sales.

I am about to have to throw out all of my regular bras, as I've lost enough that they're gapping and not fitting well. I'm moving to Genie-style bras for most of the time, and will probably get one new underwire bra each time I have to re-size. I have been very impressed with the new Jockey fit system. I got it for my teenage daughter, and she said it's the most comfortable bra she's ever worn. The sizing pack ships with a tape measure to determine the band size, and then a set of silicone cups to see what cup size fits best. It doesn't follow the normal sizing because it takes into account how the volume is distributed. You have to buy the sizing pack, but they send a coupon for that amount off of your first bra order.

I am a store manager at Victoria's Secret and can offer tons of options depending on where you are in the process. If you're not quite at a 38 band yet, I recommend Lane Bryant or Soma. But once you hit 38 and below, check us out! We have a lot of different options, including lightweight sports bras that are inexpensive and great for hanging around. Let me know if you want more info and I can give you specific suggestions!

I played a supply of "genie" bras. I went to the site to buy shape ware for mutt but tons of stuff was on sale. They don't have hooks but I got the ones with zippers. The cups are soft but the bra doesn't give me that "uniboob" look you get with some sports bras. The br also have removable "modesty" pads so your nipples don't show.

I can't say enough about the Genie compression leggings. They push and squeeze in e right places but don't flatten out my butt at all.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
