I wondered myself. I definitely need to get some new ones but I was not sure where to get measured since I have never had it done before.

Here in Texas we have Dillard's. Dillard's will fit you for a bra. They are wonderful. I don't trust anyone else. They are helping keep my bras fitting as I lose and are cheering me on. I started out in a 42DD, down to a 40DD and two weeks ago was refitted with a 38D. It's so wonderful not to look sloppy in my clothes. Before I gained a lot of weight, I was a classic 34 B. I may never be that again, as I am older now, but I'd like to get close. I've been overweight for 17 years!

one of my reasons to start on this journey was my bra size-at a JJ, it is the one part of me i absolutly hate. and i am really hoping to go down to a D cup. do not know if this will be possible, but if i can lay on my back wihtout being suffocated, it will be a massive thing for me. i wonder how many bras i am going to have to buy as the weight comes off, as well as clothes.

go to a proper bra fitting store. You'll find one in the yellow book...

My obgyn was adamant that I get a proper bra fit...and I'm not very large chested. He just felt that my breasts deserve proper support or they will sag and be in pain.

However, I nursed my twins until they were 20months (after my surgery)...and my breasts are so not even nearly attractive in the least.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
