A good sports bra for big breasts



Recommended Posts

Okay, ladies...I need HELP.

I have large breasts, and at Lane Bryant I'm a 42E.

I have bought several bras to find a good one and haven't yet. (That Couch to 5K program is really paining me sometimes.)

I was thinking of researching the ones that the ladies on the Biggest Loser wear, but I checked and they're expensive.

Before buying one, I'd like to get feedback...and suggestions on a good bra? Has anyone tried the ENELL?

Hi ...I have big boobs too when I run I wear a tight minimizer bra and a tight sports bra over it... No movement at all and very comfortable to me..

Oh oh, someone on the forums a while back told me about some sports bra they swore by.. had to order it online because I think it came from the UK?? Anyway, it is THE BEST. No jostling, and it is extremely comfortable.

When I get home from work I'll find out the info and come back and post it.

Hah, after my post I googled Enell--that sounded familiar.

That's it! That's the one someone on forums recommended, and now I definitely recommend.

The sizing is weight loss friendly I have found too. I bought mine to fit me when I was a 46 DD, and I'm now a 38 D (well back to DD with pregnancy, but before pregnancy!) and it still fits and works great.

That's one thing I was worried about! But thanks! If I know it will stay with me a while on the weight loss, I'll invest.

I don't really know how to define a "good" sports bra, but if you ladies send me the pictures, I might have some recommendations.

Well plain, they're usually VERY sexy. Nothing slutty like lace or nipple show involved, much more classy. Think 4 hook back, inch thick straps, big fat seams over the cups, all in a fetching shade of beige.

I know you're drooling...

Thanks for ruining the mental image for me, Jac!

Yeah, my husband calls it my uniboob bra. Sports bras have the exact opposite of sex appeal :tt2:

Well, Enell does give me the uniboob. That's what works for me and sports bras!

I wouldn't wear it in public, I just use it for working out.

I can do the uni if it really doesn't hinder workout...

Can't really ask this nicely - what about sweat factor? Do the girls get sticky and gross? What about the fabric?

Uhm.. not sure about sticky and gross.. I think all of me is sticky and gross after working out, never paid special attention to the ladies to check out their gross factor. But I also shower after working out????

The fabric of mine is double ply satin.. and it does have a million eyelets going up the front, so it is easy to take off.

Okay..I know working out = sticky and gross, everywhere. :sneaky:

But, I guess I'm thinking of the bras I wear now, which are NOT made for me at all. I practically have to peel it off and I hate them.

If I'm going to hate something that much more expensive, I'll stick to the sucky ones I have now.

But, I don't think I'll get that with the Enell...sounds like you're happy with it, so I'm willing to give it a shot....

Thank you.

      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.
