Next Purchase...Miracle Bra
So, I was looking at the new pic on my profile and realized just how flat chested I LOOK! I've gone from a 44DD to a 40D (currently in last hook) which is a 26/28 top to 18/20 tops. The majority of my weight has come from up top (i'm only down to 22 bottoms). While a 40D still sounds big it really isn't for my body size.
So tomorrow I'm going to savannah, ga for my follow up appt for my gallbladder surgery and I'm gonna make a stop by Victoria's Secret (if they don't fit I'll hit Torrid and/or Lane Bryant) but the girls have to have a lift!!!
Anyone else having this issue (I don't want to call it a problem cuz hey at least I'm losing the weight :D )

I am in the same boat. I am down to a 18/20 on top and still a 22 on bottom. Any of the comfy bras flatten me out. So This is what i have discovered. The bras that are supposed to look great in t-shirts (they look just like boobs on their own while sitting on the bed) are GREAT. I guess they are "formed" not push up. They really give me a smooth clean look with a little more volume
I went from a 48DDD to 42DD so far. I bought three great bras in this style for 8.88 a piece at walmart this weekend.
Now, if I could only get rid of my "nether belly"

It amazes me how we all track along the same time-lines!! Last Friday I finally joined my boobs and gave up, deciding I HAD to get some new bras!! I noticed about 1.0-1.5 months ago that it seemed ALL OF A SUDDEN they had gone south. Now I mean really deep deep south. I know it was probably gradual, but it sure doesn't seem like it!! Anyway, Macy's was having a bra sale, so I went and bought two new bras. Before WLS I was wearing a 46DDD, now I'm wearing a 40DD. I remember when I used to help my Grandmother get dressed every day and she would bend at the waist to get her bra positioned or so I thought--now I know what she was really doing...she was getting her boobs lifted up so they would go inside the cups!!!
Mandy,
Thank you for your post.......I went and bought some new bras last week. I can wear a 16-18(XL) tops and 18-20 bttoms. Yesterday I tried on some 14-16 pants at AVENUE..... very snug but I could put them on and zip 'em up. My chest went from 48D to 40C .....I look pretty chestless now. What will I do when the AVENUE clothes don't fit?
I hope the weight will come off the bottom of me. But who cares? I still have half of my hair and can walk,bend, sit in chairs with arms!

Hey Mandy,
Victoria's secret does have some 40D's, but not as many in the store as they will have on-line. I got a couple of wonder bras (don't remember where, Dillard's I think, or maybe Steinmart) Thank goodness for them!!!
I don't have boobs anymore, I've got fruit rollups
Time to start saving pennies for the plastic surgeon.
Have fun shopping!!!
Ironic post. I just went bra shopping yesterday! Talk about EXPENSIVE!! UGH!
I was "fit" yesterday - and was I in for a SHOCKER. I knew that my boobs were smaller - but didn't know HOW MUCH until yesterday. I've gone from a 40/42F to a 36DD. That's a HUGE difference! I feel like I'm flat chested now. hahaha
It's amazing what the right size bra does for your figure. I have a flat stomach now!!
Hi Deanna
me too. I've gone from a 44G to a 40G. And yes they are sagging too. I tried an F cup but, to put it delicately, they are ok unless I move, when they 'flop' out and I end up with 4 boobs!

PS Does anyone have the problem of the extra 'lumps' under your boobs and above your belly? My daughter Millie calls them my extra boobs I thought they would go when I lost weight but they are still there, just a bit more saggy. Is there any way I can get rid of them without PS at the moment does anyone know? Sorry if it's too much info
