FatGirlJenny's Journal, 24 December 2015

In your bio you stated you once got down to a size 3/4. What was your cup size then? Did you save any of those clothes & bras? I know I've dropped 2 cup sizes and a good 6", causing me to spend a ridiculous amount of money twice. Fun to wear, but not fun on the wallet.  

Yea, I saved all of my clothes. I was a B then too. I lost about 8". That was around May 2015. When I gained almost 30 pounds back from June-September, my cup size went back up to a D. I was a DD when I first started the journey at 243lbs. If they have to go with the rest of the lose, then so be it. I'm currently fitting back into my 5/6. It's kind of strange that I have only 4 more lbs to lose to get back to the same weight, but still a size higher in pants. I will blame it on muscle mass from all of the heavy the strength training I was doing 6 days a week while feeding my face...lol. I did definitely gain some gluteus during that time though. I was doing squats with 75lb on my shoulders (4 sets of 12). It is my New Year's resolution to get back into strength training. Congrats on your loss! I had to find an alternative to mall shopping when I first started losing, (I dropped 66 lbs in the first six months), but not for bras and underwear. I found a couple of up scale second hand stores in my area and became hooked. I was REALLY surprised at some of the things that people donate. I bought a like new $200 leather jacket last week for $10. I can't count the nice name brand things I've found there. 

In some ways going down is helpful. I am a DD right now, but normally am a D when I am a 2/4 and not a 14. It's really hard to find bras with a small number, but big cup! It seems like the bra industry assumes that if you have big boobies you must also be fat. 

Wow! You are lucky, Jess! I would kill for a D and a 2/4! 

Ive dropped a couple of bra sizes too, but I'm ok with that. Merry Christmas everyone! 

I have went from a 44c to a 36 b. They think fat girls have big boobs...I am clearly a prime example that that is not so.  

LMAO @Steven! Hey, NY we can share bras. LOL! That's exactly where I'm at, although I started out with a 44 DD. 

I'm a 36H. Cost me £170 for two bras.  

Wish I could donate 2 lol 

I agree 

Oh yeah! Let me know when you find the answer.
