Oh yea,

Now I'm a "D" ....and they are already saggin' bad.

I wouldn't mind being a "C" when I reach goal, but so sad about the deflated and saggy part.

I feel ya! When this is all over, I think I will have big fake knockers put in! :tongue_smilie: I really don't know how to exist w/o big boobs...but thats just me:cool2:

Love this thread!!!

Pants:

Was 24/26, Now 18

Tops:

Was 26/28 or 3/4X, Now 16/18 or 1X

So far, I haven't changed bras, but the ones I am wearing are seriously getting loose around. I have to wash them every day just so they will shrink up and be tight enough. The cups are still full though. They are 44DD, but I think I could probably get a 40DD now.

If your cups are still full, you will have to probably go up a cup size when you go down on your band size. I started a 44DDD and now I am a 40G. It is quite frustrating. :smile2:

Thanks for the advice. Now I have even a harder task ahead of me...just when I was thinking it was going to get easier to find bras! LOL! What was I thinking?

I was a size 3X/26-28

I am a size L/14-16

Bra size went from 44D to 40 C. I'll probably continue to go down in band size but probably not cup size since I was ALWAYS a C in the past

Still have 54 pounds to go....who knows where I'll end up!?!?

Well, I went bra shopping this weekend. The results were quite depressing. I was in a 44DD, but the style of bra I was buying is the only bra I was able to fit into a DD. In other styles, I had to have a DDD. Well, just as crzytchr figured, I did go down in band and up in cup. As a matter of fact, I am now a 40H. How the heck is that possible?!?! I was measured, and then I tried on a sample bra and the lady was spot on. It fit like a glove. Apparently what I have is all breast tissue and not going away even though I have lost 4 inches in the rib cage. That brings the difference in my bust and rib cage measurement to a whopping 9 inches. Now I feel like a freak! To add insult to injury, I will now have to go to a specialty shop or order my bras. I thought having to buy all my bras at Lane Bryant was bad enough.

      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.
