What do you mean you have about size 18 breasts? Like what an 18 year old should have? Although that is really unpredictable...

Anyway, if you are overweight, if you wanted to lose weight & get more fit, when you began to exercise, you could possibly lose some of the fat in your breast... *probably not a lot, though*


You should really consider being happy with what you have and making the most out of it, but if they're really big and effect your daily life and self-esteem, you could consider plastic surgery.

You can have breast reduction. I have heard that this helps people so much, but like everyone else said, you are kinda stuck with them.

What size is 18 breasts? I am a 36 DD, what size are you? Also how overweight are you. If you start to lose weight your breast size will get smaller. You could lose a full cup or just a little bit, it all depends on how you breast size is meant to be at a health weight. I know once I start to lose weight the first place that goes is my breasts

Maybe she means she can only fit into size 18 tops because of her breasts??

You either need to try and shift some weight overall or consider a reduction.

i'm confused by the size 18 comment. I'm 16 and before pregnancy i was around a 34ff and now while i'm breasfeeding i'm a 34gg/h. If you're overweight then losing a little until you reach your guideline weight will help

I don't understand a 16 C. But if they are so large that they are causing you problems, ie. neck back ect. then speak with your Doctor because in some circumstance breast reduction surgery can be covered by insurance.

when I lost weight (from 145 to 118) My breasts didn't get any smaller. I wish they would have though. That's what I was trying to do.

16C is the same as 38C, it's the australian measurement.

charmedwitch,

it doesn't sound to me like your breasts are disproportionate to the rest of you. But if you are indeed overweight, losing some would be a good option generally for your health. in the meantime maybe you will feel more comfortable about your boobs if you make sure you are wearing a correctly fitting bra. most women wear the wrong sized bra and don't even realise it. if you get yourself correctly fitted then you will be able to find a better bra that will offer you more support. when you are big boobed (like i am!) most of the support needs to come from the strap which goes around your body - not the shoulder straps. most women wear a back size or few to big, and a cup size or few too small!! and especially since bras stretch out with use, it is important to choose one that fits tightly around the back (but not so tight it restricts you or is overly uncomfortable). next time you are out shopping try trying on a 14D instead, see how it fits. the best way to get the correct fitting bra isn't to just look at the size on the label, but take it in the changing room and try it on properly. the wires should be sitting under the breast tissue - never on it. the back should be tight. the top of the cups should not be digging into your boobs giving a "four boob" effect. you should be completely contained and supported. when you find a comfortable bra that fits well you should not have so many problems!

yeah, you can't target fat.. so you'd have to loose weight all over to loose breast fat. try doing some cardio. breasts are mainly composed of fat so when you're loosing weight, more than likely you're going to loose breast fat as well. there's nothing you can do to target JUST your breasts, though.
