Migration, remigration and the back that remained fat

When I first found Bratabase I wore a 34F Pollyanna, Millie and retro. They sat flat at center gore. Today when I tried them on oh goodness...

However: I thought I would fit all of my back fat into the cups and I went up cup size after cup size after cup size.

I could clearly get away the fat from my back without problem as long as I had something to put it in. I also could indeed place it on top of my boobs making me fuller on top (which I still think is my actual shape), but when I lifted my arms the boobs would fall apart.

So I've come to the conclusion that yes I have remigrated some of my back fat. But no, I had not remigrated ALL of my back fat.

And I don't know why I even did it. I like being fat, I don't mind it, I'm a fat acceptance activist since 5 years, why on earth would I go around torturing myself with trying to get into uncomfortable bras and get rid of fat while I don't even consider fat ugly?!

In a smaller bra size my boobs has shape and I have back fat and armpit fat. In a bigger bra I will have no armpit fat, no back fat but the fit in a bra will be totally distorted!

So I've decided sizing down. On cups. While at the same time try going back to a 34 band. I have no clue what size I will be. But I've yet to try the 34G-GG so probably that's where I start.

I feel really stupid now!

  • I have "armpit fat" too. I've had lots of people tell me to buy a bra that fits when my armpit fat is shoved in the cups. Well, 10 minutes later the fat is back in my armpits, and the bra cups are gaping, which is not a good look. I think I'm ok with just having fat armpits :)

  • Exactly that feeling! Maybe it got there by a too small bra to begin with, but that doesn't necessarily mean it will get away.
