My weight has yoyo'd a lot over the years, with the largest weight loss I've ever had being from 138 lbs to 109 lbs (so roughly 30 lbs). Contrary to what we often hear, that weight loss actually improved the appearance of my boobs. Granted, this was a few years ago when I was 26-27 years old, so youth may have been on my side. But I went from a 36D to a 32DD, so effectively one cup size smaller, and yet they became perkier (i.e. nipples were pointing more "out" vs down).
I'm 33 now and trying to lose about half the amount of weight (14 lbs). I've lost 9 so far and I feel like my boobs are not having the same...improvement. I haven't even gone down a full cup size but I think I see signs that things might be different this time around. They don't necessarily look worse but I can feel the volume loss when I touch them. It's making me a bit worried about what's going to happen when I lose these last 5 lbs.
This may seem like a vain question. And I think anyone who makes that appraisal is fair. But I also know it's a concern for a lot of women around weight loss.
Would anyone be willing to share their experience? I admit a motivation for writing this post is to see if there's anyone around my age with around my bra size who can offer me some reassurance that their boobs didn't totally deflate lol. But if you need to burst my bubble that's ok too!
I think sharing the information can be useful. Both because I think there are probably women who are very fearful of what will happen to their boobs when they don't necessarily need to be, and because there are probably women who need to understand the reality of what might happen and that it's normal and ok.
Thanks!
