You gals are so funny. Okay, I have to admit I weight first thing in the morning after I pee and then again after I shower and dry off and potty again. I count whichever is lower as my official weight.
As for my bra size, I used to be a 42DDD and am very glad to say that I am now a 36C. It is great especially for exercising. They only downside was having to buy so many new bras! EXPENSIVE!
Hey Barb -- I hear you on the expensive deal. When I bought 4 new 38DDD bras I was overjoyed. macy's usually has a buy one get one so I did
It's time to get new ones though -- as I buy lower cut shirts because I can now I need lower cut bras. They NEVER carry 38DDD in Lane Bryant although I like their cuts and since I have their shirts (although 14/16 is getting big in the shoulder area), you'd think they would carry bigger bras. But they start at 40DDD
Oh my gosh you guys are too funny! I am a WAY compulsive weigher. However, after no loss this week, I decided to pout at the scale and not weigh this morning. It's killing me! I know when I get home I'll weight everytime I go into the bathroom, which puts me at close to 10 times a day!
On the boob front, my should give me a NEGATIVE read! If only I could take part of my butt and put it in my bra...
Ain't no tellin how far up the alphabet they go! lol
Bamie, you kill me!!!
I'm so jealous of all your A/B ladies. I would love boobs small enough that I could go without a bra from time to time, and that wouldn't hurt my shoulders and back. I'm all about boob reduction surgery, but I want to breastfeed, so I have to wait until after we have kids. Of course, it'll be nice to be able to have someone put them back up where they belong after all that, too!
Jenn, you look so young in the dress pic...wow! The one of you at your heaviest just doesn't look like you! I can't believe how much you have lost...and how far you have come. YGG!!!
And BTW, meaning no disrespect, and as one 'well-endowed' woman to another, I can see why you put the girls on the towel rack!
I actually did ask HB to hold them last night and well, it was 10 lbs gone BUT she was like, "Hon, no offense but they weigh more."
Part of the reason I hate to exercise is because they bounce too much and I am afraid I will knock either myself or better yet, someone else around me out

Jenn, I SO know the feeling! I haven't found a great sports bra yet. Some are better than others though. I keep looking.
I'm with you. Mine have gotten much smaller, but they still weigh at at least 10 pounds if not more. HB was so nice to hold them for you. I tried flopping mine on the scale by themselves once...but it didn't work.
I do it too!!! I weigh everytime I go to the bathroom, and that's a lot! I even weigh at work sometimes too and my kids (students) tell me "You're too obsessed with your weight. You need to gain some!" What, I didn't quite hear ya', say that again??? I love it when people say that! That just means I'm doing well in my opinion! I even add about 2lbs everytime I weigh with clothes on to make it "right." I think my students are right...I am obsessed!
There is a scale in a part of the room that is enclosed and considered a "teacher's work area." I don't have a regular classroom of kids like what you are probably thinking. I work in an alternative school and I am the one that interviews them, tests their skills, and transitions them into the school. I become "friends" with a lot of them and I'm there to talk whenever they need me. So, they know I'm on the diet because they know that I can't have certain foods and stuff like that from when we eat breakfast and lunch together.
Laurie, Jenn, and other larger-breasted women--have you tried the catalog Title Nine for sports bras? They are a great, women-owned & run company; their sports bras are a little pricey but they have the best size selection I have ever seen, up to 44DDD.
Here's a link to their bigger-busted bras page. Check out the "Last Resort" bra and the "Frog" bra.
