Bra size? or wrong bra??



Recommended Posts

I am going through my old clothes, some i have had for ten years, but use to wear the bras that have thin strap in front but now my bust sticks out looks good when put on but then goes over bras everywhere, maybe my skin has sagged, other half says lost weight on bust all the other types of bras lose in that area. should i not be wearing those lower type bras now? please advise, as want to look sexy but may mean spending more money,or getting professional fitting?:blush:

I am down 37 pounds now and lost a cup size already. I was tired of the wrinkle in the cup so went to get a FREE fitting at the department store. My size is ample, so I don't miss the cup.

You can get some nice interim bras in K-Mart. I paid $7.99 each for the few I have in the new size.

A well fitted bra can take pounds off your frame, streamline your waist & put the girls where they're suppose to. Last wk I went an bought 2 new ones **went to Macy*s, they measured me w/out charge** They were on sale, which was good...didn't want to drop too much, and they really make all the difference. I'd invest in at least one good one.

hello, its more than likely the bra, and type style of bra, it may be a good idea to get fitted.

I swear by getting fitted twice a month once a year. Once during my "off" times and once during my "on" times. I haven't done it in a while but I will probably go back soon to get it done. The reason I get fitted twice is because you breasts will change each month, sometimes its just a little bit sometimes ... WHAMO you got cleavage you never knew you had. Also some women shouldn't wear certain bra's while others are just perfect for them.

When I get to that point I'm going to Victoria Secret to get fitted and to purchase bras. I've heard many ladies say that they make them look great.

I went to them ONCE, I will never go back. VS isn't about helping you find what is right its about selling you product. After my fitting she was running around trying to find the most expensive items she had to sell me. Now maybe it was just that particular store I don't know.

But I love Macy's for my fittings. The ladies there are great, they don't try to sell you product they help you choose what would be best for you. So happened that what I wanted was what was on sale and she was happy as a clam that I was able to get 6 for the price I was expecting to pay for just 2 or 3.

      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.
