Ht. 5'6, Wt. 180 - Hey, y'all! I have just started a weigh loss plan for myself, and I hope it will work, so I am quite excited about that. I just have a couple of questions. My first one is this: I never call myself fat, because I really don't look my weight. I am pretty muscular, but still overweight. I don't call myself fat or insult myself, but I think other people do. They don't do it to my face, though, they do it behind my backs and I hear that they said it because my friends tell me. Is there any way I can put an end to that while I am in the weight-loss process? My second question is this: (This is a bit embarrassing, and I think only girls should respond to this, and I am sorry if I offend ANYONE at all.) I am 5'6, and I have a size D in bra size. I am really proud of that D, and it gives me confidence when I am at social events, especially with boys! I have been told that when you lose a large amount of weight, your bra size goes down, and I don't want that to happen! Is there any way that I can lose my 30 pound goal but lose little or no bra size? Please, girls, help me out! :-)

personally gain or loss in my breasts tell me if i'm losing weight or not. they do get smaller with the rest of my body but not by much. we i was losing a lot of weight i began as in between a d and dd. after i lost the weight i fit perfectly into the d cup(not to mention i went from a 38 to 36 on the tightest notch). since i gained weight however i'mmback to a severe 38 dd and am not happy. it is hard for me to find my size. argh- but i hope you don't lose too much- try building up your pectoral muscles- it'll help them be perkier too;)

You will probably lose a little from your chest, but shouldn't be anymore than a cup size. And you will still have the same proportions, so you won't look much smaller. But yeah, about the girl that posted before me, if you are still really big in the chest, it will be harder for you to find shirts that fit.

ok, attention with ur boobs is not good attention- it shouldnt make u feel that confident bc if u do lose weight and have big boobs- ur gonna have trouble finding tops that fit right and a huge amount of back pain- but they will only go down a little bit-- and just say " f*** 'em " if someone is talking about u, u must be important for them to always say something about u...... dont let the stuff that doesnt matter get in the way of ur weightloss goal

i can't back this up at all, but i bet your bra size will stay the same unless you get, like, super skinny...and good job being so confident...you will do great!
