Silly question for the girlies...

I am currently in a 42G. I've lost a stone already...How much weight will I lose before I have to start worrying about buying new bra's???

 

[Sez]

NOt sure how much I lost before I noticed I needed a new bra, but what I do remember was that although the band size went down by several sizes, the cup size went UP!!!!! OMG!!! Apparently its because of the diff between the measurement round your chest & round yr boobs being in proportion, or something along those lines!!!


Sorry, not much help at all!

but what I do remember was that although the band size went down by several sizes, the cup size went UP!!!!!

Don't tell me things like that!!!!!!! Oh god...Im going to end up wearing a 36M or something arent I????

 

[Sez]

aww bless!! We are all so different, maybe I was an oddity!!

Been thinking... I must have lost about 4 stones ish before I caved and bought new boulder holders!!! (I lost 8 in total, but have since regained some....hence CD again!!)

I got new bras on Wednesday having lost 39lb and I went from a 44DD to a 42DD...

Found it all very confusing to say the least...she tried to put me into a 38DD and it was digging into my body and hurting me and she said it fits very well and this was with my fat oozing out over the sides


...then she tried 42E which was looking better and the bra make I had asked for in the first place... it was a little too big but again she tried to persuade me it was perfect and finally I tried on 42DD which was just right.

This is from a fitter that has worked in this place I went to for years but never seems to get it right

My usual girl was away on holidays

I found with the new bra on my boobs were back in the right place and I looked right away like I was a few pounds lighter and no oozing out over the sides.

Love Mini xxx

i only have one that fits at the mo. i'm a 36HH, i went after losing loads of weight and my old bra is massive and the others were worse thinking i'd get a smaller size. was totally gutted to come away with exactly the same size in a different make!! i don't want to buy loads and loads. when i was at my thinnest i think i was a 34-36DD... when i look back at pics it looks like there's nothing there, but a DD is pretty ample. scary!!

im a 32ff at the moment, and im hoping that when iv lost about 4 stone i wont be flat chested! im quite tall (5'9) so im hoping that i wont lose too much off my precious boobies

 

[abz]

a 32FF is pretty hefty honey. i'm sure you'll retain something, hee.

Gosh, i was a 38H b4 losing over 2.5 stone. I had just splurged out and 2 Rigby and Pellar bras which together cost over £100. They don't fit now but i swear they were the best investment i have made in recent times - soooooo comfortable and supportive. I am still wearing them though as i refuse to buy any other bra now as i am converted but don't wanna splash out more til i get the rest of this weight off - then am gonna treat myself.

Dunno what size i am now? Weight came off them fairly quickly - hubby can't get over it - They use to fill his hands b4!!

lol that's mine hubbies biggest fear that my boobs might shrink I don't care I just hope they get small enough so they look like they are on my chest instead of under my armpits

 

[HopeSprings]

I go to Bravissimo shop to get measured, the thing is when they tell you what your RIGHT size is - it doesn't feel comfortable. The cup size is worked out by measuring under the bust and then at the fullest part, the difference i.e. 4 inches, 5 inches, etc. tells them what cup size you need. Hope this helps

 

[HopeSprings]

Doh, forgot to say what a fab weight loss. You must've been thrilled.

 

[abz]

yeah. my OH isn't too thrilled. ha. although i do think the lingerie i'll finally be able to afford is making up for it... i think that's where his brain goes half the time
