Shrinking Boobs

  • So, DH just informed me that my boobs are shrinking. And he didn't say it like it was a good thing...
    I reminded him that they were barely a B cup when he bought them, and only expanded to Cs over many years and babies. So no refunds at this point, buddy. But he's right, this is where I notice it so far, my boobs and my stomach. I'll take it. I'd love to start seeing a difference in my face, but this will come...
    Just thought I'd share.
  • Schmoodle, my boobs are usually the last place I lose and the FIRST place I'd like to lose. I'm a DD right now and would LOVE to be the 36C I was in HS!

    I know it's frustrating to lose in weird places at weird times. I found that I lost a ton in a specific area seeminglly overnight, then nothing for a while. Weird! One day I got up and half my derriere had disappeared! No kidding! It hasn't come back, either. I actually miss it a little, but not enough to want it back.

    on your loss! I have a feeling your DH will find lots to like about your new figure, smaller boobs and all!
  • It's so wierd the way it kind of falls off in one particular area overnight. Just seems like it would be slow and steady overall. But as long as it comes off, it can come off any way it likes. I can't wait to stand up one day and leave a substantial portion of my butt behind. Thanks for the encouragement, beachgal, I'll just consider this a NSV!
  • HA! Your not the only one! I have gone from a C cup to an A cup! Nice thing about it though as I look in the mirror the "rolls" on my back are gone! Now if those little pocket of fat near my armpits would just go away!
  • A friend of mine once said that people lose weight from the top down, and that's certainly been true of me-- although I never had much boobage regardless of weight. I had to get up over 200 lbs just to break into a 40B. In fact, my friends and I in high school used to call ourselves the "IBTC" (Itty Bitty T**ty Club).

    And even when I was in the 120s-130s, I still had thunder thighs. My mom used to call them "arboles" which is Spanish for trees because she said they looked like oak trees.

    What part would you like to have shrink first?

  • Damn - my boobs will NOT shrink - driving me nuts !!!!!!!!
  • My boobs were the first things to go. It's actually really frustrating because I CANNOT afford new bras, and I'm down almost a whole cup size! I've lost more to my chest than both of my legs combined!
  • HaHa
    Yep, same here.........boobage goes first. When I was at my goal a couple of years ago I was into an A, but couldn't make myself admit it, sooooo I had a dented B. It was pretty ridiculous.
  • Ok, I'm jealous! My boobs are the last place I lose inches from, too, Beachgal! I can lose inches easily anywhere else on my body, but my ta-tas refuse to shrink.
  • If I could choose I'd have it off my big butt and stomach first, then thighs. I wouldn't lose any off my boobs. But I would love to get rid of those back rolls.
  • I'm SOOOO jealous. I was a B cup in 4th grade and up to a DD in high school, and that was when I was 115 lbs. I've stayed a DD throughout gaining and losing weight. The only thing that changes for me is the # in front.

    I have accepted the fact that I just will forever have a badonkadonk butt (as the kids say these days,) huge boobs, and a lower stomach fat roll. Can't do much about it without lipo, and have you SEEN one of those procedures!?
  • I think mine might be going also. I ordered some new bras a couple weeks ago and when they came they seemed too big. Avery's even still nursing, so I wonder what's going to happen when she weans!!!

    Pacer, I lost armpit inches right after I started on South Beach! I was shaving my armpits one night and had to contort to all kinds of weird positions because they just didn't "stick out" and make it easy to shave like they used to. Strange!

    And regarding the pattern of losing inches, I think I lose from the outside extremeties to the inside. So my fingers, face, toes, ankles, etc. go first and then it creeps up my arms and legs and my belly and butt must be the last to go as they don't seem to have changed at all. I feel like I've got nice looking arms, upper abs, and decent legs, up to my thighs, but my upper thighs, butt, and belly still look all bumpy and gross. I'm hoping the inches start coming off there soon because that's where I'd really like to lose! This poochy belly and protrusions of fat above my hip bones drive me crazy.

  • Kara, my face/arms/ankles etc lost first too. I have the same problem. My upper abs are alright (not firm or anything but not bulgy) and my legs are good until about mid-thigh. From lower stomach pooch to mid-thigh is where I carry my weight. I don't care about finger fat. Why does that have to go first?
  • I KNOW! Who cares if my toes are a bit pudgy? They're HIDDEN in my SHOES!

    Kara
  • I'm not losing in any pattern. I've lost from my ankles, calves, and thighs more proportionately than anywhere else, but have also lost from my face and neck.

    What I'd REALLY like to lose- my arms!- didn't even change a half an inch on my last measurement.
