Weight loss/boob loss?

At 52 and overweight I've pretty much got floppy boobs anyway but have been told to expect National Geographic pancake boobs.  Really looking forward to THAT.  lol  Already lost a size though, which is always welcome.  I don't want to topple over when I lose all of my weight. ;)

Well, you are only 24, so gravity shouldn't be an issue, yet.  I've lost 27lbs since surgery, and although that isn't a drastic amount, my size/shape is still the same.  But, I'm 45!  About ten years ago, I got down to 227, and I don't remember losing any volume at that time. 

I started losing the elasticity in my skin around age 40, the arm wings started, and I noticed my hands starting to look "old". 

I wouldn't worry about it too much, though, since you are still very young and the exercise will keep you toned up.  But heavy tatas are still heavy tatas, and eventually, they will start to fall.  Concentrate on becoming healthier, and deal with the other issues as they come up.

 I used to be a 44DD/DDD and am now more like a 38 long

LOL

Seriously, I'm a 38D but with the right bra I look good.  I don't forsee anything strapless in my future but I never have been able to wear anything like that anyway.  I also steer clear of button down shirts as the chest button always seems to gap

Boobs...UGH!!!  I agree with everyone above...and for me, my boobs were the first to go, and I think they're still going...

Pre surgery (330 lbs) I was a size 46DDD, now I'm 223 and a 38D, some DD.  

I hate my boobs.  The FIRST thing I do once I reach goal is getting a lift and a small implant to perk these babies up... I'm 29 I want a 29 year old's boobs. LOL

How your breasts will be affected by weight loss depends a lot on your age and genetics.

I had a breast reduction about 6 months before my band surgery, and ended up in the oddball size of 48A at age 54. After losing my excess weight, I'm a 38B. Goodness knows what I'd look like now if I hadn't already had the girls downsized. "Tennis balls in socks" is the description I hear most often. I went down in band size (48 to 38) because I had so much fat on my back and torso. I went up in cup size not because my breasts got bigger but because now there's more of a difference between my torso dimension and my bust dimensions. I've got some sagging, but in 1-1/2 yrs working as a bra fit specialist at JC Penney, I've never seen a woman my age who didn't have some sagging going on, regardless of their bra or body size.
