I know I’m not alone in this and it’s to be expected but I feel a bit unsettled.
I gained weight gradually in high school until reaching a peak of around 165-170 (not exactly sure) and decided to start exercising. I gradually changed my eating habits as well and lost weight. This morning I was 129 lbs. It’s been two years since I started, and I haven’t been actively trying to lose weight anymore, but have recently lost a few final pounds just naturally.
I always have been a bigger chested girl. I considered my true size to be 34D pretty consistently, although I was up to a 34DD for a few months at my very heaviest. However, when I started dropping the weight, I returned to my 34D size and I’d say I continued to be that size for about a year and a half.
More recently, I noticed my 34D bras seemed a bit loose, so I went to by some new ones. I got some different styles, some being a 34C and others a 34D. I went to Soma and I honestly think I didn’t do the best job picking sizes by listening to the advice of the women in the store. I definitely needed a smaller band size, but more relevant to this topic, the cups were fitting well when I got them. I filled them out. I’d say this was a couple (2-3?) months ago.
Very recently, I realized that all of my bras are gapping in the cup. Even the 34C bras, which are the smallest I’ve fit into in years, are gapping on me. I don’t fill out my bras anymore.
What’s unsettling about it to me is that when i was 14, I weighed 125 and I was wearing a 34D at that time (early bloomer). How is it that my boobs are smaller at my current age of 19 than they were at 14, when I even weighed a few pounds less at 14????
I do love the way my boobs look now more than ever. They are much perkier and my areolas are smaller and appear to have less fat in them. I just am having trouble seeing them get so small. I’m thinking maybe they’re smaller now because I’ve become very fit, and at 14 I wasn’t doing any exercise whatsoever. Maybe it’s from building some muscle and exercising a lot, as I assume is the case with athletes who seem to have smaller boobs? I’m not even sure if my boobs are small, but I know they’re not big like they were for pretty much all of my post-puberty life.
Does anyone else have a similar story? How have you reconciled your new body with losing your boobs? Do you find your boobs to have changed shape or nipple wise? I welcome any feedback
