weight loss and cup size

I am curious to hear what you guys experience with weight gain and loss and your cup size. I gained about 10 lbs over the fall/ winter, and have lost it again but my cup size doesn't seem to have gone down, although some of my bands are feeling looser. I have been this same weight through much of my adult life, and have been a couple of cup sizes smaller. I am dismayed to think I may have just grown. I am trying to lose a bit more weight, and am hopeful that I will get a little smaller. I always find it interesting that people link breast size with fat, because that hasn't been my experience. To specify I have read that most breasts are largely made up of fatty tissue. I am not super thin, but I am in the healthy BMI range. Beyond that, in the past I was an athlete, and still had a very large cup size, although smaller than my current one. I am curious to hear your experiences.

  • I have heard that from some other ppl, that while weight gain seems to translate to boob gain, weight loss does not always translate to boob loss. I was going through my drawers and aghast at how many too-small bras I have, hoping that I'll manage to loose some weight and some boobs. It seems hopeless tho.

  • If I'm within, say, 5 pounds of my average weight (either plus or minus), I don't gain or lose boob size. However, as soon as I go over that magical 5 pounds, I definitely start to gain/lose boob size.
