Sports Bra advice please....
HELP!!!! I have been on a mission to find the sturdiest sports bra for a DD cup. I cannot find one that will keep the "girls" in place for HIGH IMPACT exercise. I have got to do something --- after my workout sessions with my trainer my breasts hurt so bad. I am tempted to ace bandage and tape them down. With my weight loss surgery (revision RNY) I have a lot of skin and I am not sure if that worsens the problem with the bounce issue... but I need some advice and quick. I am down 125 lbs. Anyone out there with a solution???
Thanks.

I wear Champion sports bras. I don't remember which "model" I wear, but it has underwire, adjustable straps. I am a 34D, and my girls do not move in them. What a difference a good sports bra makes in your workout!!
You may want to go to your local running store and try a few on - my local store had many to chose from.
Good luck!!
Keri,
I use the Hind Motion Sensor bra. It works better than any other bra I've used. I don't like the underwire for running (I've tried one) but I do sometimes use one that has an underwire when I bike.
Like Elisa said, you may have to try on several before you find one that works for you. Mine cost $45 each, so definitely not cheap, but well worth it for me. I also use a top with a shelf bra in it for extra support. Together they work better than anything else ever has. I'm a 36D and was also very busty before surgery.

Take care.

Yes, I have major issues!!! I have a lot of excess skin and big boobs to add to the mix so it just makes for a very difficult time finding ANY bra to fit properly!!! For a sports bra, I found a front-hook Glamorise bra from JCPenney's that you can order online. I normally wear a 34DDD regular bra but this one I got a cup size up to a G. This is the best bra I've found so far! I use it for running and it seems to handle the impact pretty well. If I know I'm going to be running a lot, I usually wear a tight fitting compression tank or something over the top to add just a little extra support. --Deanna :)
