Well everyone I just can't take this anymore. The girls are beyond help!!!  HOW THE HECK CAN THEY BE GETTING BIGGER??????????? I started out as a 42 OK almost 44DD, 8 months ago I went for a bra fitting and I was a 38D.  OH just great they are getting smaller by leaps and bounds. WELL!  Sunday I went for a fitting because I wasn't fitting into my bras any more and why you ask????  Because I am now a 34F!!!!  Which means the bra size would be a 38F!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm going to start looking to breast reduction.  My breast weigh so much I can't take it anymore.  I've been going to the Chiropractor for over a year and he said I needed to do something back than, but this is getting out of hand.  The girls hang so far down now that the nipples are pointed straight down to the floor.  I COULD JUST CRY!! Buys shirts and jackets sucks because no matter how heavy of armor I wear, the girls just pull the bra down and the back of the bra up the back of my back and the permentent indents in my shoulders are just sad.  I also have a yearly physical with my new Dr. so I'm going to see if I can coordinate with my Chrio and the new Dr. to see if I fit the medically necessitiy requirements for breast reduction.  I have 36 more pounds to lose and if they could make me a C cup I'd be happy as maybe they would shrink down to almost B's by the time I lose the rest of the weight.  I haven't weighed the girls, but I bet you they weigh more than 5lbs ea!  They just weigh so much it hurts.  My skin is totally pulled down from my neck and chest and where my brest should be it is totally flat and boney.  It's a sad thing to say the least.  It makes me sad they hanging so far down. BTW, thank God I have a tummy when I sit down at least I get a bit of a break, the girls just sit on top of the little tummy roll. Thanks for letting me get that off my chest........ Kathleen

Hi Kathleen, There's a great website for breast reductions called breasthealth.com.  I'm hoping to do the same in a year or two and I learned a ton from that site.  Good luck! Tonya

This happened to me too.  Shrink and then WHAM!  HUGE!  Mine is caused by extra skin.  I realized I was adding to the problem the way I was shoving it all into the cup!  Well, as time went by and I firmed up some, it got better...but honestly I can't wait to be done with school so I can save up for a reduction or re-adjustment!

I had a reduction a year before bypass.  It was the best thing ever....besides WLS.  I have shrunk a bit, but not too bad. Not to be gross or anything, but I have before and afters if you want to see let me know...I will send them to you.

I had a reduction 11 years ago.    It was the best thing I have ever done.  It was so fun to be able to wear shirts that button in front and I could golf and clap my hands in a whole new way.  Go for it!  Don't even give it a second thought!     Lisa Joy  Tongue

You guys rock.  I'm going to coordinate with my Dr. and Chiropractor who advised me to wear some really good support bras and trust me, I've been buying very expensive really good support bras for as long as I can remember.  They don't work.  If the girls weigh a ton, nothing is going to keep the back of you bra from creeping of the back of your back and that is all there is too it.  I think considering I've spent over a year going to the Chiropractor for numerous back and neck related problems that I might be able to get lucky enough and have it cover by insurance.  The Chiropractor said the weight of my breasts is not only hard on my lower and upper back, but it's pulling my shoulders forward. Wish me luck, I'll no more come mid-Feb. Kathleen
