34 C Baby!
Dan, you need read no further.  Just move along.  Nothing to see here.  

Anyway, I can't remember the last time I fit my lady lumps into a bra that was smaller than a 36DD. Ah, that's probably hyperbole again.  I can remember.  Maybe 2 years ago I was a size 36D.  Still.  That's HUGE! Remember, I'm short. I don't even know how I've been walking around with this weight imbalance.  By all scientific analysis I shouldn't have been able to stand up straight with those huge things parked way up there on my chest. 

But after 3 and a half months or so on this plan, old Tweedledum and Tweedledee have been shrinking along with the rest of me.  This is cause for much rejoicing (by me. Probably not by Dan....). Of course, the right boob is still a renegade, and it still pretty much does whatever it wants. But it's getting smaller despite itself.

I have a whole bunch of pretty bras that I couldn't bring myself to part with as my mammaries grew when I was packing on the pounds.  Just like those size 12 and 10 jeans that I saved for "some day",  I saved my bras hoping that one day my boobs might return to their former size.

This morning while I was tearing through my unmentionables to find something to hoist the old girls up, I came upon an a pretty black bra that's just been sitting there in there in the darkest corner of my drawer for years. It's been waiting, quietly, biding its time, hoping for the day when I would finally take it off the bench and put it back in the game.  I looked at it, and figured, eh. What the hell, right?  So I tried it on.  

So, I'm not sure what the boob equivalent of a muffin top is, but I definitely had one.  But still.  Both lefty and righty were pushed and squeezed, adjusted and manipulated until they were squarely sitting inside my old 34C bra!  Old googley eyed righty didn't even slip out all day! 

And don't you know it? I wore that sucker to work today! 

I'm still up at least half a pound (truth be told, I got back on the scale this morning and I was somehow up a pound and a half! ARGH! Talk about a lesson in why daily weighing is a bad idea!) but I don't care. I'm on plan, and I'm basking in the glory that is 34C.

I can't wait for mine to shrink; I'm still in the same size bra I was in 40 pounds ago. Weird. Glad yours are cooperating. :)

I. AM. JEALOUS. I am that 36DD right now. I'm keeping everything crossed that I can have some of what your having. I have a renegade left myself, and my ultimate busty dream would be shrinking and evening out. One can dream.

Reason to stay OP #1,287 - more manageable ta-tas

I recently went to my specialty bra store to get fitted and went from a 40D to a 36D. Needless to say I was doing a a dance! Nothing feels better than a sexy bra - say so long to the over the shoulder boulder holder!

I wish we could decide where the weight comes off. My puppies are shrunken shadows of their former selves. Though my partner said yesterday - hey! your stomach is shrinking, your boobs seem to have stopped shrinking now. Uh. Thanks.

And, everyone needs to have a little black bra in their wardrobe. Or so I'm told.

I coin that term to be "Double boobin" I often refer the the muffin top issue you described as Double Boobin... cause you know when you're wearing a t-shirt over the top of a bra that you sort of overflow from it sorta looks like you got two boobages on each side. haha

Congrats on a 34C that is awesome. I am definitely looking forward to shrinking in that area too. I would love to be able to shop for bras in more than one store! haha

Bravo!

Way to go!! My renegade is the left one!! As someone else described them, they are starting to look like squeezed flapjacks. It is nice when the girls shrink and congratulations on being able to wear the bra comfortably all day!! We all know if the girls aren't happy, WE aren't happy!! Thanks for the chuckle!! Paula

How funny. I had the same experience this week. They were just uncomfortable so I decided to go in to check my measures with a pro. I had no idea how bad it was until I got to buy new and significantly smaller bras! I was never so happy to have to spend money! I also decided to try on jeans and ended up with 2 sizes smaller in those! WOW! My butt is still amazingly big but I'll take it.
I also have gained this week, and you are right, it is a good argument against daily weigh ins. I'm happy for you and your girls.

LOL, you bask in it! That's awesome! [The weight will cooperate again soon, I'm sure]
I can not wait until I get to wear a smaller bra again - hopefully soon ... so far, no dice. Also, it makes me very happy to know that I am not the only one who names them :P

One of the major reasons I want to lose weight is to fit into a "normal" bra again and then my sexy ones, woo-hoo! (Mine, too, are lurking in dark corners). I swear, sometimes I wonder why I don't fall face forward with all the stuff going on up front, like I need a counter-weight or something....oh, wait, that would be my butt, wouldn't it....well, no wonder I manage to stay upright.....
