back down to 28C/26D?

So I lost about 3-5 pounds over the past month or so, bringing me down to about 110lbs at 5'3" and I think most of that weight has come out of my boobs, meaning that my 28D/DDs aren't fitting the way I want them to and the 30Cs that I've been tolerating are slipping around all over the place. I'll do a proper fit post with my 28D Marcie some time this week for more advice, but any thoughts in the mean time?

New measurements:
UB - 27"
TUB - 26"
Bust - 31.25"
Leaning Bust - 32"
Perimeter - 6.5"

Previous shape - evenish, average projection, tallish roots, wide set very little center fullness. Half cups tend to work best for me.

Thank you, boob twins! xo

  • You might want to add a boob perimeter (prob. lying down, unless you are very firm and perky). That will help figure out a good cup depth for you at your current size and shape.

    A lot of people, when they lose a bit of weight, don't QUITE go down to a lower cup size in the same styles--they need a different cup shape, either the same size as before in shallower or more closed-in designs or one size down in deeper ones. Which is a total headache, but I guess you'll see!

  • I've always been a bit confused about how to measure that tbh, maybe because I'm not entirely sure where my breast tissue ends?

    And I was worried about that! I feel silly even posting this because there hasn't even been an inch shift in some of my measurements but it's definitely made a difference in how my bras fit.

    I couldn't get the brasize calculator to load on my computer. Does 28C/26D make sense given my new measurements?
