Hi, hope you don't mind, I moved your thread out of introductions to the "powder Room".

Honestly, I think it is an individual thing. I have many friends who have lost weight, and when they have, they have gone down several bra sizes. Even when I was thin, I was large chested. I have lost weight several times over the years, but my breast have always remained the same size. Actually, I wish I would lose some in them, a C cup would be a nice change!

i don't think there is anyway to know for sure if it "will" or "will not" happen. for me, i went from a 38DD to a 32D - which is fine for me & the hubby:wink_smile:

Genetics also play a role in this, look at the women in your family for an idea.

My mom was a size 0 when she was younger and always had a full C cup.

I had a 46 DD when I was banded, I am now in a 38D..

It's going to depend upon how much of your boobs were fat and how much actual breast tissue. If you can remember being thin at any time, your boobs will probably return to that size (although maybe not as perky). I've gone from a really tight 22E to an 18F (Aus sizes) and I'm still spilling out of the cups, although I probably need an F-long :whatchutalkingabout I'm less than half way to goal and I'm figuring that at goal, I'll still be a 12F (our 12 = US 8). When I was young and skinny, I was a 12E but I think with all the extra skin in there, I'll still fill an F cup. Once that's done, all I'll need to do is have the boob lift, so my nipples don't keep getting stuck in my belly button :tt2:

Probably. I still have D cups but they are down to my navel now, sigh. They really are totally ruined and are going to require reconstructive work. Thank goodness its all I need, but I really need it. Next year. DH is very keen for me to do it, he likes boobs (as most men do) and I now have a very nice pair - for a 90 year old!

I have a total of six years of breastfeeding and three pregnancies behind me too though, that makes a difference, and nature never blessed me with pert boobs in the first place. I've seen others lose weight and their boobs are perfectly fine.

Size wise I couldnt be happier, if I lose a little more size as you often do with a lift, I dont mind being a C. I'm not really one for wanting large breasts, I just want a nicely shaped pair.

My parents told me a long time ago, that when i loose my weight to target goal (they never said how) that they would help me get boobs. My whole family (2 other sisters and mom) are all well...well endowed. Then there is me...NOTHING. SO...once my bug bites go away,hopefully they will follow through...which i know they will (after all for my wedding last august 25 they got me a hummerzine!! my childhood dream!)

geesh, we've noticed the shrinkage in the boob dept. already! just dh the other day started laughing and said, "wow babe, i can really notice the smaller & bigger boob!" being the smart ass that i am, i said,"i don't know why you're laughing, you're going to pay to make them look normal." that shut him up really quick!

i've always thought i had/have small boobs for a big girl,42c at my biggest, and i'm now at 40c. i have no kids, and i'm 25, and these things are saggy! i know i'll need 'em repaired after i'm done having babies.

I have lost almost 20 pounds. I have lost inches everywhere except my boobs. Mine have always been big, but now they are big and saggy.

      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.
