    Just got the tape measure out to take stats of the rest of me. My boobs seem to have grown overnight and now apparently I'm a 40DD! :rotfl:Must be TOTM I reckon. At least I'm still 40, and not 44!
    Oh girls, I've found this handy bra size calculator, you just type in 3 measurements (under, around and above) and it works it out for you!

    My other measurements are...
    Top of arm … 14 inches
    Top of leg … 26 inches
    Tummy/hips … 44.5 inches :eek: And I know my tummy has gotten smaller! Hate to think was it was when I was 3 stone heavier!

    Now I can work at bringing these down!

    RAPH - noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! It is sooooooooooooooooooooooo innacurate to measure like that. I would bet my mothers house youre not 40DD. Infact, im going to check it and see what it says i am and if its right.

    Also raph, now this might be me being a pear shape, but my hips are 42 inches, and my thigh is 24, and i wear a 32 bra. So unless youre an apple there is something dodgy with that 40DD bra size already. What size top do you wear if you dont mind me asking?


    AJAX: I wanna be in on the sweepstake!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Nice to meet you LEO. Nice to have a member on the other side of the demographic scale! :p

    London was fab today. Im very tired though! Why did no one tell me to not walk up the stairs from covent garden tube station. BLIMMING HECK. I thought 193 steps, that is nothing, i do a 1000 or more on my stepper. How wrong was i, i got to the top and i was dizzy and i felt awful! Really killed me for some reason. Yea, so we did covent garden, there was a string quartet playing my favourite song ever which was lovelly. The science museum was really good, they had my favourite car in it!! then we did trafalger square with photos by the lions. Good stuff!! Went in the Radley shop, saw a gorgeous dress in ted baker, and all i bought was a frog for my mum and a twirly thing for my room!

    Taken me ages to read through all 6 posts. Im not expecting a loss this week, i know today has been all walk walk walk but ive had a chinese for dinner. Couldnt resist :p

    Silverstone tomorrow! woooooooooo

    Ok i did that bra size checker. I did put in a fake 3rd number but i think i guessed wht it is correctly, and i cant see why that number is considered important in determing your sixe anyway!

    I came out as a 36A or a 34A. I wear a 32C, and some of my 32's could be smaller so its pretty far out. The only thing going for it, is that 36A is the same size as 32C in the boob, but if i were to wear a 36A it would give me as much support as lemondrops drop cups!

    Raph, come to me i'll sort you out good and proper. When we all meet up we'll have to nip into debenhams and i'll bra fit you all ha.

    I just tested out the bra calculator website and I question its accuracy. My underbust measurement is 38, yet it recommends I wear a 42! I can buy a 38c in pretty much any shop and it will fit perfectly, ticking all the requirements specified by Gok Wan in his bra fitting special programme. Why would I need a 42, which is surely going to be 4 inches too big?
