I, too, get uncomfortable when people make a big deal about my weight. I understand it, but I want to get on with my life! I always feel so much better about people who just comment and then move on. For whatever reason they do, I am grateful.

Topic: RE: Ladies, Let's Talk About Bras!
Thanks JEllen. It makes sense now why my 38s still seem to mostly fit. I 'm pretty sure I add a cup size for ea*****h difference between my chest and the fullest part of my breasts so I really am in the right bra size now. It really freaked me out when I measured my chest at a 34, though! It used to be a 44!!!!!
On anoher positive note, I just bought two new pants in size 10. I guess that jogging is paying off after all even though the scale hasn't moved.

I had been buying all kinds of different bras... cheapies to see what fit best. my smallest was a 34 C... down from a 44D. ...
well i figured since i measured a 34 band ... I would get a 34. with that bra I HAD LOTS OF SKIN... tuck it in somewhere... not a good look. but nooooo.... Some time ago I went I got professionally fitted. I was told add 4 inches so that makes me a 38 band size..
the problem came when the difference in the band & cup measurement.
I used to wear a 44D. but the professional measurement came out as 38A/B. YIKES! what happened to the girls? guess I've gone back to childhood!
While the smaller cup is difficult mentally to get my head around... the larger band definately worth the it. with clothes the look is so much better!
My advice.... go for a fitting .... get an idea of where to start and then try on different styles & sizes until you find one that works for you then stick with it!
