Boobs! [emoji523]



Recommended Posts

It's funny that you are mentioned this cause I am just experiencing this. I am almost 11 months post op and lost about 90lbs and let me tell you my girls are hanging. I was a perky DD prior to suregery but now they are looking very dense. I finally decided to go to a well known bra fitting lady and she put me in a triple F. With that being said she gave me a long speech about how I probably wasn't in the correct size before. Anyway needless to say I bought this very expensive bra and they look super high and lifted. However I will probably get a boob job after I have my babies cause I do not like they way they look without the bra, lol. Good luck!

I lost quite a lot of boob. Previously, I was 52 DD, now I'm 36 -something- can't really tell what. I mean, all the loose skin fits into a D cup, but really the breast itself is much, much smaller. It's the price I paid to eat whatever I wanted for three decades, so it comes with the territory. They look fine in a bra, anyhow!

I'm in NJ and heard that you can get insurance to pay for a boob job if you can get an orthopedic to show that your back is effected by the weight of your boobs. Has anyone done this? If so, please tell me the name of your orthopedic. I'm in nj but willing to go to NYC

At my highest weight I got up to J cup but I always had really Bigg boobs but when I lost all the weight my boobs totally deflated hanging sagging skin was left over. I got a "reduction" to a C cup. I miss my big boobs but surprisingly happy with my cute little perky boobs too.

Insurance covered my surgery.

I never considered insurance covering to correct them. :-)

Most people who lose a lot of weight lose their boobs. I was a B cup before I gained my weight, a D now, and will be fine going back to a B. Big boobs make you look fatter anyway.

There is no exercise to fix saggy boobs. The muscle behind them can be exercised but the boobs themselves can't be tightened up. Most people describe their post weight loss boobs as tube socks with tennis balls in them, lots and lots of extra skin.

Surgery is the only real fix, but most people look fine in a good bra anyway. Your boobs should never be more important than your health.

I always say this, with big boobs, you can have perky or real. Gravity doesn't allow perky and real. Lol

Yep! They were actually first to go, but I'm still large breasted. I was DDD. 3 months later, D. I've been a D most of my skinny adult life. I assume they'll stay here.

Mine have definitely shrunk a bit. I'm not quite down a whole cup size but they look a lot less full than before. Band size has shrunk too which is the silver lining I guess.

Mine never shrink much at best I may drop a cup size (if I drop 100+ lbs). Heavy I border a dd/e...thin it is a d/dd. I had a reduction at 16..., so not afraid of doing a lift later if I have to.

      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.
