How much do my boobs weigh?

**jayhawk4** · 06-29-2011 10:30 AM

I know this is totally random, but I have 34DDD bra size which I know is a farely large cup size compared to my rib size.
And I was just wondering if anyone knew a way to compute the weight of your breasts?

Cause I want to be down to a certain number of pounds weight wise. But if my boobs are packing 15lbs or something. I need to consider that when trying to lose weight cause I don't want to become unhealthily small.

Oh also, I know that you lose some boob when you lose weight, but I'm 90% sure (you never know what could happen) that I won't lost that much boob. I haven't thus far (I've lost round 25lbs) And my boobs have actually gotten bigger. And my boobs are very genetic and don't have anything to do with my weight!

I know this is totally random but I couldn't really find anything else on the internet!

SO HOW MUCH DO MY BOOBS WEIGH?!

Put a scale on your counter and weigh them? LOL, I don't know... But to be honest, I have done that before.

Anyways... Don't underestimate the weight in your boobs. I've always had big boobs, then gained a lot of weight and then lost a lot of weight. I was sure my boobs would stay the way they were. Well...... Not so much and it wasn't until the end of my weight loss that my boobs actually went bye bye. I'm not small now but I'm definitely not what I once was.

If I were to guess though, I'd say they weighed about 7-8 pounds each. LOL

Haha thanks Lana!
I'm hoping they'll go away. That's the main reason I started my weight loss journey. I'm 5' 4'' now around 140 lbs. So I'm definatly not overweight. But close to it. But these ladies are KILLING my back. Breast reduction is last last last resort.
I want them to go away. I'm really hoping it'll make me look slightly slimmer also.

Well am slightly bigger than you being a 34FF/G and I can tell you that mine weigh just about 4.5kgs each!..so that amounts to between 19lbs/20lbs in total! and it truly is a huge weight to carry and is constantly giving me dreadful back pains...and I am wearing professionally custom made bras at the moment.

I sympathise completely with you as I have just the same problems, if not more so than you....The annoying thing is no-one has been able to tell me why all of a sudden last year my boobs quite suddenly had a massive growth spurt, I was previously a 34DD....and am built like a "racing snake" lol according to my fiance, weighing in at just about 65kgs, and stand 5' 9" in my stocking feet

Having had ALL the tests under the sun including weighing them (and yes it is done by a set of very finely calculated scales on a table, with me then very gently lowering my boobs onto it until I was told to stop) the specialists are still really none the wiser.

I am now awaiting a referral to a surgeon with a view to having a breast reduction done, hopefully on our National Health Service that we have here in the UK.....Failing that both my parents and my fiance's parents have very kindly offered to pay for me to have it done privately.

I really do wish you the very best of luck as I know only too well just what you are going through and suffering with.

Solataire!
Good luck!

I have a friend that is a 36 FF and she has a breast reduction scheduled for Aug 14!
I'm going to see how she does and then I'm greatly considering one!

I'll let you know how she does!

Gosh...Not long to go for your friend now, please will you let me know how she gets on....and wish her good luck for a very speedy recovery.

If at all possible could you also let me know what size she hopes to be after her surgery.....Am still investigating several different clinics for my BR, all of which have told me differently what size they can achieve for me....I would dearly like to be a 34C, but have been told that is virtually impossible due to how much they would have to remove. It would seem at the moment that I can only hope to be back where I was at the beginning of last year...34DD or maybe, just ,maybe 34D.
