Don't want to lose all my boobs



Recommended Posts

since you're a size 18 (although I don't know how tall you are), you may or may not lose that much boobage. Most of us who've lost a ton of weight (100+ lbs) end up deflated there. Some people have breast augmentations. I hated being "well-endowed", so I had a breast lift and reduction. I wanted to be a "B" cup - or "C" at the most. Now I've got it!

You'll surely lose something, but there's no way to tell how much. Maybe start saving up to get plastic surgery..?

I don't know your height, but a size 18 is a smaller starting point, so as Catwoman said, you may not lose much.

However, you don't get to choose, unfortunately! Weight comes off where it comes off. I haven't lost much in cup-size; I went from an E cup to a DD. But they are a sad, sad shadow of their former selves in terms of firmness! You might be fine, but you won't know until you hit goal, then it's a question of whether you go the plastics route, or learn to love the looser version of yourself!

I went from a full 44DDD to a very saggy and deflated 34D. I got a lift and augmentation, now 34DDD. They’re fabulous :)

Mine started small and phased into a different version of small! HAHA!

I think was the only big girl in the world with small boobs!

I was a 42 H and am now already down to a 38 G. It's a noticeable difference to me... I am preparing myself for the likelihood that I will be deflated by the end of this.

I was a DD and now I'm a C. I will most definitely be having surgery once I hit goal lol

Sleeved on Sept 1, 2022. Weight160, lost over 40 pounds. I did not like having bigger boobs when I was 200+. I kind of gain weight all over and am losing the same way. So glad the big boobs are going away! I want to lose about 30 more pounds and hopefully I will be a B cup or at least no larger than a C.

I've gone from a DDD at 295lbs to a C at 163lbs. They overspill a tiny bit but I assume they'll still fit on a C at my goal weight.

Based on your current propositions I'd say you'd probably be left w some size at your goal weight!

I’ve definitely deflated but the leftover skin still takes up an additional cup size than when my weight was here last time.

I lost 120 pounds and have the same cup size, just lost some density on top.

My bust didn't really "shrink"--despite all appearances, I wear the same cup size that I did before my surgery however they are noticeably less full now and a bit floppier. I was a 40F before the surgery and a 30F now.

This is a valid concern of mine. My weight has fluctuated my entire life. I once lost over 90lbs and I got a breast lift, no implants. I LOVED my breasts, even with weight gain. I loved them.

Now... they are already changing. I will probably get another lift, no implants...... 😕

      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.
