Default Sports bra to strap them in tight!

Going along with the idea behind wearing a girdle after WLS to keep everything where it's supposed to be, I would like to wear (when I'm not at work and wearing a proper bra) a heavy-duty sports bra that will keep everything right where I want it. I honestly don't care if my boobs shrink away to nothing, I just don't want them to be empty sacks flapping in the wind.

Trouble is, I live in a small town and the only stores I can get to only sell those wussy lightweight sports bras that *I* sure as heck wouldn't want to jog in! I have a couple heavy-duty bras from Champion, but they're getting big for me and I always found the rib band to be the most constricting.

So, can anyone help recommend a good sports bra that really keeps your boobs in place? Adjustable would be a dream come true, but I'm pretty sure that's just a dream.

There is a really good Sticky about sports bras over in the Exercise forum, I've been shopping for new ones too, and I hate wearing racerbacks, so it's been challenging.

I just got 2 nice ones from Hanes Comfortsoft brand, I like them very much. They seem to hold well.

Thanks for the link to the sticky, but yeesh--I feel totally overwhelmed. I want to buy one but I can't even tell the difference between most of them. :[

I have 38DD's and I find the only solution is a proper under-wire bra with a sports bra over it.
Sports bras mash your boobs together and Give me heat rashes. a regular bra gives them their space while the sports bra holds them in place.
boobs are not made for running!

Hmm, the only problem is, I'm really not that big (my actual boobs, I mean, *I* am that big)! I'm a 40C/D and the only info I can get are for bras that strap in ginormous boobs. Since I want them to keep their shape, I want an encapsulation bra, but I can't figure out which one is best. I think I'm going to go with this one 'cause it's not too expensive. If it doesn't work, I'm gonna have to bite the bullet and buy one of those $50 bras.

I have tried many different sports bras and under armour ones are my favorite. i LOVE them and they are machine washable. =0) Super supportive and comfy. But they are also super expensive.
