Question Breast size and weightloss

Hi,
I am trying to figure out something. When loosing weight, is it not so much your breast size that you lose but rather the "back fat" and "chub" around the breast? I am an overweight woman, (235lbs) and i was wondering if perhaps that theory is correct. my mother told me i wouldnt actually loose my cup size but rather inches on the bra strap, is this true? Can anyone help me out on this one?

Your breasts are just fat and tissue. You lose fat, you lose some of your boobs. You can go down a cup size, you could have hanging skin, your nipples can sag, and so on. Of course, you'll lose inches in your bra strap, but that might not be the only thing. Everyone has a different body type and therefore I can't tell you what exactly will happen. I'm just here with the posibilities.

You will drop some of the breast tissue. I know this from experience.

But I also know that if you do push ups, you will pump up the muscle under the breast, which I measured one time as a full cup size bigger for me!

Now, I know doing stuff like push ups is difficult, specially when you are overweight. I never did them the traditional way, laying on the floor. I used to use my kitchen counter or my balcony rail, or even a table, and just lean into it as much as I could handle and push up from there. It worked
