Bra drawer!
Aloha my friends......Just wondering if any of you have had the "bra problem" like I have. I used to wear 42DD's when I was 320 lbs. I have a drawer full of bras and thought I had given away most of my big ones, but now I'm finding that the 34C's are getting a little big and I need a little "help" by way of a jell addition to fill up that space.....
My boobs have gone from big ripe melons to an orange in a tube sock!! A support group member said it well when she said she has to "roll her girls up and stuff them into her bra." I sure understand. I still don't know exactly what bra I should buy. I guess I should go to a good retail store and have them help me. I keep buying them and disliking what I see when I put them on.
So much extra skin everywhere! No like it!!
I am excited to hear how Karen C's consult comes out and what doc says about loose skin on thighs, arms, etc. I won't have that surgery, but sure would like to hear about it from someone who has.
Anyway.....Today I will clean out my bra drawer yet again....and maybe someday will actually have several bras that fit!!
Aloha nui loa,
Karen

Karen,
You are lucky to have oranges in those tube socks. Mine are the empty socks.
A couple of years ago my oldest daughter gave me a gift certificate to Victorias Secret. She said they girls needed some help.
I felt nervous, embarrassed and thought the prices were way too high.
The fitting was private and not at all uncomfortable. I love my Victoria bras and have then in a rainbow of colors.
They go in the washer and dryer. I figured for that price they should wear like iron. They do!!!!
Happy shopping
Annette

Aloha Annette.....You have inspired me to make the trek to Victoria Secrets. So nice your daughter gave you a gift certificate. I haven't paid big bucks for a bra in years....so I guess it's time to make an investment in my sagging girls. I know my clothes will fit better, and I will feel less frumpy.
Thanks for the inspiration.

Oh Karen I am sitting here LOL about MY boobs!!! Rick just wonders where they go when I lay down!!!! They just disappear into thin air!!! LOL
Anyhow...YES!!!! You need to go to a good place that will measure you and have you try on a good fitting bra and trust me there ARE bras out there that will take care of what you have/don't have!!! I have tried on soooooooo many bras and finally gave up and went and got measured and the nice woman brought me a couple bras and I tried them on and WOW!!!! I had boobs again!!!!!!! I have been trying on the WRONG bras all this time!!!! So YES please do yourself a favor and go get measured and have an experienced "woman" help you get fitted for a new bra or two!!! Good Luck!!!
HUGS
Hey Hey Judy........I am laughing too at Rick's wonderment! I too have boobs under my arms when I lay on my back.......where did those perky little mountains go that I had when I was a teenager????
I think I'm convinced I have to put my hands and my girls into the hands of a professional. If I had all the money I've spent on buying and discarding bras I would have plenty to get a couple of VC bras!!
