Ok ladies ihave to ask What is the difference in your breast. Do you really lose all of them no matter what. I am 242 now at 5'5 and i have already had two children and breast feed them both, and nothing has happened. Please let me know what i am in for. So i Can start saving now for the boob job.

Well, when I was 329lbs. and 5' 9" I was a 42DD. I am now down 107lbs. and am wearing a 38D...and they are steadily getting smaller. I am thinking I will end up a 36C...but will definitely need a lift...maybe some implants if I go down to a B.

You know, I always had that "problem". There was this one time when I was taking these two different types of diet pills and lost about forty pounds and I had gone down to a small C cup. Of course, as soon as I stopped the pills(I had to, they were making me super ill: accelerated heart rate, faintness, vomiting), I gained all the weight back and my girls came back as well. Before the surgery I was a 42DD and even though I've only lost about 31 pounds, I'm wearing 40D bras that I had bought but never worn because they didn't fit. For me, they're always the first thing to go. I'm thinking boob job(lift+implants) for my 21st birthday!!!

I was a 46-48DD pre-op, now a 38DD. The cup size has not changed, but the breast itself has. They are much more droppy, soft and not as full. I pretty much have to cram them into the bra. With a bra on, they look fine.

I would ideally like a breast lift when done loosing weight...we will see.

I am 5'5", started at 257#'s currently 184. My girls were a nice 38C/D. I have nursed all three of my kids and gained and lost more weight than I can count and they never moved. Sadly, this time they took a hike and I am sitting at a 36 A/B now. It's sad...I am bothered, but I will be getting new ones when I get to goal. I have already started budgeting for the tummy and boobs and probably some lipo. We will see!! In the mean time, I will be working the weights to tone up some of that flabby tissue and muscle!

My girls are acting a lot like Lisa's. I started out at 355 lbs and have lost 148 lbs. I started out at a 46DDD bra size and I am now down to a 38DDD. I also breast fed 3 children. I still have plenty of breast tissue but the girls are heading further south for the winter!! I have to stuff them into my bra too. Once there they don't look too bad. I suspect I may want a breast lift but doubt that I will want or need implants.

WOW
I have surgery in just over a week and did not think it would be so dramatic. I get a tummy tuck on the NHS but not the boobs. think I will be saving for that not saving to sun myself in florida in January.
oh what we put ourselves through

I too had consistent girls until GBS! I was a Dcup when thin before, they got larger as I added on the weight and now they are about a B, though they don't look that way in my bra since I have all the extra skin to cram in to the space and my bra inserts take up the other part

So a breast lift and augmentation is in my future. When you have the skin to hold up to a F cup,and only the breast of a B cup it's well

!!!!!
I'll take being thin anyday if that is the payment! Thank God for plastics!!!
