Well folks. I have lost a ton of weight before with WW only to gain it back (duh), but I am now at a lower weight than when I finished the WW process (and I struggled to get there then...but not now). I went bra shopping with a friend yesterday - I have gone from a 42DD (that was actually tight but I refused to go any higher in sizes) to either a 34DD or a 36D. I was bummed with the cup size not going down, and my friend reminded me that I still have to roll the tatas into the bras and that the skin is still there.

So there's progress for ya!

WOW! You certainly haven't lost much boobage!! Going down only one cup size must great for the shape of the boobies . . . I've gone down 3 from a 44G to a 36D . . . I could model for National Geographic. . .my husband calls me Princess Long Boobs . . .

OMG!! Don't even get me going with the hanging boob thing. I was sitting on my bed the other day with no bra on and my boob was LITERALLY in my lap. It freaked me out!

Whitney - great moment shopping for bras and being below the WW weight. The little things sure add up to big things!

Cindy - you kill me! Just this morning one of the girls at work brought into work this $110 bra for our party the other night. She bought dream shapers at La Senza..its kinds like a gel bra..no material. You can't try it on in the store, so you have to guess. We are killing ourselves laughing as this "B" size girl doesn't know how to put the boobies in the cups. Its like trying to 'show" someone how cram the boobs in there....I honestly thought of the canadian bacon boobs when trying to explain how to put a boob in a cup - this is even harder to write, let alone show someone!

Anyone else know about these self adhesive silicone bra cups - Dream Shapers from La Senza....I think we need a lesson in them!

That would be the end for my DH. He said that I looked "Pan cakey" in a certain bra the other day. I said, "And where are you sleeping?" He did some fast talking, but is still getting the hairy eye-ball from me.

I can't even look at my once gorgeous breasts - they were my best feature. I could cry, but keep telling myself that the plastic surgeon will save me. Just hard to wait and I fear swim suit season this year!

And good for you Whitney. You deserve every precious moment. I looked at an old WW booklet the other day, it said 284 as a starting weight - I can hardly remember!

You guys are so funny

Hey I forgot to mention that my bras were from Vicki's - no more bras from the biggest sections in whatever stores carry the biggest boobie holders

Whitney....that is totally fantastic. I am so proud of you!! Be happy about your boobage, maybe it'll leave enough to lift later if you want. You are gorgeous honey!

Yep, I was in my pj top too...and I have a full length mirror next to my bed that I happened to glance in and see my boobs in my lap...I was shoked and horrified!! Maybe some day I will get the boobies done, but at least for now they look good in a bra and hubby likes the fun bags no matter if they are free or tied up!
