Ladies with large chests...



Recommended Posts

Well as Jachut is fond of saying, I've lost my boobs but I still have the bags they came in :tongue:. I've gone from spilling out of a 22F to barely filling an 18F and should probably be looking at dropping back to a 16E. The problem is though, that what's left isn't really boob... it's mostly loose sagging skin and when I lie on my back they either disappear into my armpits or, worse yet, cave in on themselves and turn into these utterly disgusting shrivelled up bags of wrinkles. :tongue_smilie: If it weren't for all the loose skin, I'd probably be down to a D or C.

I used to love my boobs - no matter how fat I got, they were the one body feature that I didn't loathe. Now I have to roll them up to fit them into my bra and I can't bear to look at them. When I hit goal, I'm getting them fully renovated!! I want them tightened up and lifted back up where they belong. I might even go for a small implant to fill them back up again. I don't recognise myself without my boobs - it's like an identity crisis. :lol:

PS: Sorry for the big whine, but this is REALLY bothering me...

I have never had any luck with pushup bras, but I found a really good one at Lane Bryant. I really like it. My boobs look really good in it.

It is called cacique microfiber plunge air pushup bra. It has these little air pillows that you can put in for extra lift. I found it on ebay for about $20. It is great. My boobs have never looked so good! They have about any size you need.

I love the cacique bras! But since surgery the underwire bothers me and my incisions. Not comfy. So I found a great bra, I think it's Queen Latifah's line, no underwire and the support is amazing! I was very suprised.

OMG the other day I went to Soma (a bra place) and had them measure me...they measured me at a 38 D or DD...lol. I laughed at them and said yeah sure. Anyways I left there since none of the bras at that sized fit me at all...I went over to Lane Bryant and they measured me...I am a 40 G...lol....they were close right :D. Anyways now I have 4 beautiful lacey bras! They were buy two get two free lol. Glad I went there...next time I wont go to Soma or anywhere else. I always love the way they treat me at Lane Bryants :) Just wanted to share that with you all :D

We don't have a Lane Bryant here where I live. The closest one is in the next city over. So I have to do all my shopping there online.

Just yeaterday I received the bras I had ordered online from Bare Necessities - at last a break from having to handwash my 2 bras every second night! The local store had the same brands but at a significant markup, so they lost out on the sale to me.

Started doing some research on having a breast lift (once I reach goal and have the dollars); think I'll have them reduce the 'girls' at the same time. DDD's are SO difficult to find!

Yes, I definitely want a reduction. My left one is so much bigger than my right one, I just want them to be even.

I am two days post up and this is one of my biggest concerns... I am a 36DDD now at 200.7 lbs, at about 160 lbs I was a 34 DD..... will my boobs go back to that again? Will they sag? (my only pride lies in the fact that they are perky even at this huge size).....

      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.
