    Anic, Thats a hardcore size you have got yourself there, must be very hard to find yourself some nice bras that do their job.

    Really when you lose weight it should go off your boobs and round your back everywhere. Trouble is from my experience it can sometimes have the same affect on your boobs like breast feeding does where the main bulk of youre breast is lower rather than higher. But my natural shape is a bit like that anyway, which is a gay but there you go. Shame i cant have a drawing tool here :p (not to draw my own, even for me that is a little to open) :p

    To the main point, say missyg if you came in as a 36F, but you had lost weight and the bra was the wrong size anyway, it might work out that you become a 34FF to allow for the smaller back and some increases in the cup size. Also the bra can effect if you need to go up a cup or too, in some cases a balcony bra needs a cup bigger than a plunge.

    Meet my best friend, my work tool and general answer of all: http://www.figleaves.com/uk/product.asp?product_id=FE-7700&mci=&size=&colour=&image=r520148-p520259-front That is the fantasie version of doreen, its magic. All go out and get one, although its not available in anics size unfortunatly.

    Anyway, im going on again. *zips lips*

    ..... sounds good to me. How do you find it, value-wise? I'd be happy to give them a call and say that I forgot to put your name as my referrer if you like?


    I have the £10 box and the last one contained 3 largish courgettes, 1 big fennel, 5 onions, 4 carrots, 3 pears, 4 bananas and 3 oranges. I think that was pretty good value. Thanks for the offer of referral .... if you have time I could always manage an extra bottle of wine!

    Re cup sizes ..... ajax and suggs look away now .... the fitter in Rigby and Peller said that an E cup in one size is not identical to an E cup in another ... I'd changed from a 36 E to a 34 E but the E on the 36 was definitely larger than the E on the 34. :confused: I think differetn styles/makes don't allow for direct comparison anyway, ad nthat's why people like Vixarooni are so improtant when you're buying a bra!

    PS Vixarooni --- put the emphasis on the word come.

    A loss of 1.5lb for me this week, blimey. Perhaps I should have tried maintaining before... it's coming off quicker than when I was trying to lose it!

    Also, waist measurement is down for the first time in a month - it's now 25 inches! :D

    I'm so tempted to go for that extra half stone now that I am halfway there anyway.
  • Hello,

    Hahaha, thanks missyg and granny there for the heads up on the joke.

    I would have laughed at that if i were in your class. But then again, im that kind of girl who laughs at everything.

    Granny: You lost a cupsize there. Normally if you walked in a 36E and needed to go down a band size than normally you would go for a 34F. Unless the style meant that you needed a cup lower or you just lost boob.

    You see these sizes are all the same really: 30D, 32C, 34B, 36A
    My bra drawer consists of 32B, 32C, 32D, 34A, 34B and 34C But 32b and 34A are the same, 32C and 34B are the same and vice versa. Im gunna start getting confused now myself!

    If there is just one size in your bra drawer id be worried. No one is ever one size, its just the size you are told is the size you start with when trying on a bra. I always go for 32C as my start point, but then go off in other areas. Ive only got the 34's when ive been stupid, or theyve been in the sale, but im an expetion obviously :p

    Well done Missyg, what weight are you trying to go for? Youre smaller than i am and that is not allowed im afraid! I think my waist measurement is 30 something, although i dont give a rats about my waist, i wanna gte hips into the 30's instead of the 40's!

    With all the talk of boobage and confusion, I'd just like to say that I'll be happy to receive pictures of anyone's (sorry Suggs, the exception proves the rule and you're it) in order to assist in any way I can.

    No thanks needed, think of it as me just putting a little back........

    Tell me about it - it is a blooming nightmare. I can only get them from Bravissimo and even at that it is limited to one or two styles which aren't what I would call "nice" - hammocks or parachutes would be better descriptions.

    Sorry Ajax - don't think there is a camera lense big enough to capture both my "assetts"



    Anyway, I better get back to work before the boss starts moaning at me. Before I go just had to tell you all that my next mini-target is still in sight and hopefull I might still get to it after thinking I wouldn't last week.

    I have managed to lose the 3 lbs that I put on over Christmas so I'll just need to try and be really good between now and next Wednesday so I can lose another 2 or 3 lbs.
