I was a C pre-kids, then up to G, yes G, after kids and the post-smoking blow-up, now back down to DDs, maybe even Ds now that I need a new bra again. *sigh* Not only will I donate boobage but I also have some extra skin to share. Anyone?

The good news is that if you want bigger boobs, you can just eat a bunch of food, gain a bunch of fat, and wear really low cut shirts!

If I ever get REALLY lean (more than just in good shape, but like dancer lean) and my boobs completely disappear, I'm just going to wear leotards and tank tops without a bra and little slip dresses and run around like a flapper. You've got to rock what you got.

Plus you can always buy those chicken cutlet things. I don't think I could ever get implants, but I'd wear a Wonderbra in a heartbeat.
I have to reply to this REALLY lean comment! I don't consider myself that "lean" but my boobs have completely disappeared over the past two years, and yes I wear leotards and tank tops without bras AND little slip dresses... and I can't stop running around like a flapper.

Some people I know who have full A and B cups have serious issues with their small boobs - and I just don't have a problem with my barely-theres! I also had a friend suggest to me that I would be happier with my body if I just got implants - even a full A. What a joke. In the event I have to wear a bra - I am miserable by the end of the day. Love what you got!

Thanks for the laugh!

I am SO with you on this! I have always bought my shirts with the primary requirement "do I have to wear a bra with this?" For me, it's whether it's clingy enough to show points because that's all I have! I love it!

Somebody can have my boobs! I was a J () 40 pounds ago, and now I'm down to an H or a DDD (in certain bras). I'd love to get down to a D or DD...

Weight loss meant volume loss for me in the boobular area And they had already started their epic struggle against gravity... I'm afraid the battle is lost. I may win the war though as I'm considering a breast lift (no implants) as my reward for finally getting to where I want to be with my fitness and body composition

Ugh...I know how you feel. I was a 40DD, and then I lost 75 pounds. I'm now a 34B-C, and my boobs didn't just shrink. They acted more like slowly leaking water balloons. They look okay if I'm standing up straight, but if I bend over--can we "bottom heavy"? Not to mention the stretch marks--yikes! I'm also planning on getting a breast lift eventually--after kids, of course.

I have had the same problem. Mine were DD for the longest time and then I lost weight and then I gained weight and then I lost weight and many many bf points. The problem with my boobs isn't only that they are small (34C) but that they have no structural integrity of their own. To look at them, you'd think I had breastfed 5 kids! It's the worst of all possible worlds! The advantage of small boobs is that you are supposed to be able to go braless and wear cute shirts and halter dresses. Those things are not for me...but I do secretly dream about a lift.

Default Da boob thread

I love that this has turned into the boob thread ya'll are cracking me up.

My issue is I have wide shoulders and little boobs, so there's an awkward transition between my arm/chest area, into my boobs. All the push ups from the program are starting to help, but I need to get some fat off the area, so it's a much smoother transition.

I used to hate having small boobs, but now I love it, especially seeing how my big boobied friends have issues. My mom went from a B to a C when she had me and didn't go back down again until she had a hysterectomy, so I guess I might be in for that.

no pics, just a comment regarding ze boobz

I lost a lot of weight this year and went from a 50DD to a 36C and my boobs look great -- as long as they are harnessed and rolled up into a bra! Unfortunately they are just these saggy things that have the most intimate relationship with my belly button and I have to watch out not to trip when I'm not wearing a bra. Okay okay TMI but I just want to say that being overweight takes it's toll on the body and there are consequences. Thank the goddess for spandex!!

Toni you are right about that - being overweight does take its toll! I loved LoriAnne's description in another thread, tube socks with golf balls in them! haha I wore a D-cup at 200 lbs and now I just bought some A-cup bras. It sucks because I should be able to go without a bra, but I can't.
