Isis21- Wow, that is NOT cool. Nobody's breasts make them a freak of nature. I think there are actually a lot more large breasted women out there but they are putting themselves in such ill-fitting bras that you can't actually see their shape. I really need to make a post about this on my blog sometime but if I wear a bra that doesn't fit correctly my chest looks a lot smaller but I look quite a bit heavier in general. A well-fitting bra (and tailored clothes/clothes made to fit a large bust) really have helped my appearance.

- now that you're a goal you really need to buy some tops from Biubiu, AJ Rumina or Pepperberry.

princessgina00- don't even get my started on Lane Bryant's bras. When I was still 200lbs+ I was already in their smallest band size of 36 and I shrunk out of their bras well before their actual close. It really annoys me that they don't at least carry a 34 band and larger cup sizes!!!

Agreed. It put me at 34DDD, but that's too big in the band and too small in the cup!

I altered one of my 36D bras and it fits wonderfully right now. I'm going to try altering my 34D and hopefully my other 36D that I have lying around.

Do Victoria's Secret bras run weird? I ran over there today while at the mall because I figured I'd check out their clearance sale. All I could find in 32 bands were D cups (well in the clearance section anyway), so I figured why not. Couldn't even get the band to clip! I tried 34 bands and they seemed to be the equivalent to 32 bands in most cases. Other times they really seemed to be 34 bands. I wound up needing to buy a 34DD.

I tried on so many and only walked out with one bra. At least I got one!


runningfromfat - totally! I'm going to see some more relatives for a late Christmas and they're giving me cash (my mother said "yeah you haven't seen her...she really needs new clothes...like badly. Just give her money"). I'm going to use that to get some nice tops
