Is there are great supportive strapless bra?



Recommended Posts

I am getting more comfortable with my body and especially my sholders and arms. I would love to wear some cute tops with thin straps or something strapless. Can anyone help me out with this? I can't find a strapless bra that is supportive enough. I know I need PS and plan to do it in 5 years when I get my WLS paid off, in the mean time can you help me out?

Thanks I'll try. I've always been very broad across my back. All my life even if I weighed 30 lbs less than my sisters I couldn't fit into their shirts. Maybe that is why I have such a hard time. I figured I would need to wear some kind of corset for support. (Luckily to even out the playing field I never had to worry about my hips.)

I'll try this one. Anyone else had good luck?

I buy my bras at Lane Bryant still. I may not be able to for much longer though. I love their convertible bra. I have DDD's even after loosing almost 50 lbs! This bra keeps them up on my chest where they should be and I can now wear strapless and spaghetti strap clothes. Good luck finding one that works for you.

Soma Intimates, Chico's intimates store, has an amazing strapless bra called the Traveler's Amy Bra. It is very supportive and really stays in place. And this is coming from somebody with big breasts. This is the first strapless I have felt comfortable wearing.

Their bras in general are really great if you are looking for a regular bra. No, they aren't cute like Victoria's Secret. They are fairly plain, but still pretty, and very supportive and comfortable.

they,ve got some really good options at victoria;s secret . pricey but worth it. id suggest taking the time to get measured next time you go bra shopping. i've found that fit is the key for strapless bras. i know when i got measured id gone down a few inches and a cup 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.
