Expierience breast sag??



Recommended Posts

Hey everyone...

I'm 18 and i currently just finished my 4th month out of the 6 required supervised months and so far i have lost 20 lbs.

My question is for the women preferably around my age range or 20's. I was wondering after you lost your weight with the lapband did you experience any breast sag? do you have any suggestions to help prevent it? I have a signifficant amount of weight to still lose and i havent expierenced any problems yet with my -20lbs. However i'm young and i would hate to have to worry about having saggy boobs at 18 haha. any help?? thanks :thumbup:

The biggest factor is what are your breasts like now?

If they sag now (heavy, hang over the inframammary fold ie. you can hold a pencil under them, and downward pointing nipples), they still will, they just will be smaller and sag. If you have pert ones without overhang at the fold and with forward or upward pointing nipples, at your age they might recover.

My boobs suck now. I don't really know what I could have done though. I'd much rather be healthy with silly saggy boobs then they way I was before.

i think jachut is right. boobs are so weird! they are different on everyone. for me, they were sagging even before i was at my highest weight. now that i am losing weight, they are still saggy, but not any worse than they were before. they have gotten a little bit smaller though, but not enough for me to buy a new bra. yet.

oh yeah-- but don't worry about them too much--- there are some AMAZING bras out there. even if you are big chested, don't be afraid to get a pushup bra. i use the victoria secret infinity edge, and all of my girl friends tell me they want my boobs. i just laugh and say "trust me-- no you dont." but it's still good to know other people think they look decent. well-- with help!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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!
