Boobs! [emoji523]



Recommended Posts

I've had huge boobs my entire life. They got bigger and bigger. My back got worse and worse. I think my largest size was a 46H or something ridiculous.

When I hit my goal weight my boobs looked exactly like that cartoon above. Like someone put a softball in a sock. They were so bad when I laid on my back they would fall into my armpits. I could stuff them into a 36DDD but there was nothing at the top of the bra. Just space. They pooled in the bra. If I bended over they would slip out. Not cute.

I'm 3 weeks post breast lift and Tummy Tuck now. I am THRILLED with the results because the surgeon said I had plenty of breast tissue, I didn't need implants, I only needed skin removed and the tissue reconstructed to add upper fullness. He did an amazing job. They are so high and perky. I'm thrilled. I tried on a 36DD and it fit great.

My band is 33 inches and breasts are a full, perky 41 inches ???? Start saving up. If you don't need the breasts lifted or augmented you might need a tummy tuck, arm lift or thigh lift. I would love to get my arms done eventually...

With no support mine look like tube socks with nickels at the bottom. Before losing weight they were probably a 44F/G. Now they are a 34/36 C/D. My only saving grace is that they look fantastic in a VS sports bra (those are the only bras I wear) so I don't feel an urgent need to get them done.

Mine are definitely deflating. I've shifted to the stretchy "genie" style bras, because my old ones aren't fitting anywhere close to right anymore, and I'm resistant to spending the $$$$ for them mid weight loss. I'm a little sad to see them getting droopy, but when I get to goal, I'll decide if it's bad enough to start saving for a boob job or if it's just a job for reallly great lingerie. Luckily my guy doesn't really care as long as he gets access. LOL.

The fatty tissue in breasts is usually the newest and you burn the newest fat first.. So Yess most women lose a lot in their breasts. Sad but true.

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’m finally getting my boob job in February. I hope that it’s not painful.

I'm a D cup pre surg , since the girls have breastfed and fought the weight wars with me I figure,I'll end up a fullB skimpyC, as long as I don't need a seatbelt retractor I'll be satisfied. Besides I couldn't always find find a 46D and I know they have a,lot bigger choice smaller. Women my age(72) are like the Sahara Desert; everyone has heard of it, many have a general idea where it's located, but not a soul books a vacation trip there. So I'll roll Thing 1 and Thing2 up in my bra and go on from there.

I have gone from a 46D to a 40C and still have a fair amount to lose. I don’t care if I wind up flat! One less thing ...

I was properly fitted at a 44i, in 2016, and about 8 or so months ago was a 40j, now a 38i, but most of that is skin eww

      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.
