Question for the girls about the girls
It's worth going for a professional fitting treat yourself.
It should be free at any quality store.

I'm down a little more than 80 lbs and desperately need to buy some new bras. I'm a little perplexed because my breasts look different. I used to be more... um... full. Now that I am thinner I am more saggy but they have less fullness and fat so they don't stick out as far but they kind of hang down. I'm not sure how to measure because if I measure around the fullest part, even though they don't stick out to make the measurement higher they still hang. I typically buy my bras online so I don't have to bring my preschooler to the store with me. I'm having trouble determining cup size. Any ideas?
Also, what styles work best? I was probably a 48 C preop. I had mostly underwear but hated them. I was thinking about trying the genie bras because they look comfy. I would need a bra to minimize "show through." Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks again. I'm still trying to figure out this body of mine.....
I went from a 48DD to a 38 or 36 C or B depending on the bra. My #1 favorite, without a doubt (and I have a dozen of) is the Bali 3353
I was telling two friends how much I lived it...they each had one on, too! :)
probably the favorite bra of the itty bitty ***** committee, droopy chapter, lol. They lift and give an appearance of better volume.
Try one!

This post was linked here a looong time ago and I have it saved for when I lose enough weight to need to buy more bras. It's amazing. Super fantastic information. I sincerely hope that it helps you as much as it has helped me!

I went from a J to an F. The ladies aren't quite what they used to be. I second Sonja--no Genie bras. You want the ladies up front and center. You will look and feel better.
Go and get a professional fitting. You may find that you have to try a number of bras. Is there someone who would watch your little one for a short time?
