I got a new bra today. The last one I bought was too small for me when I got it - it was a size 50G. Today I got measured for a new one. The one I bought was 42H. I decided to wear it home.
I checked out your diary a bit - liked the photos of your son and where you walk. Also Zu-zu as a baby. Time is limited so didnt get quite to the end but please accept my best wishes for a great day.
Managed to get out for a walk in the morning. In the evening ate at the home of friends and had no real choice of menu.
Delighted with new bra bought today. Measured at the shop – the lady believed that the best size would have been 40I – but they didn’t have one in stock and the smaller cupped 40 that I tried on was too small (although it fastened) – so the best that I could buy there today was 42H. It was a vast improvement on the 50G that I have been wearing.

Thanks. I have seen one old schoolfriend already and she has just gone up to virtually the same weight that I have come down to so I know that I am not going to be the only cuddly lady there.
Re bra sizes - if I could give you some of my content I really would. I have a pair of giant half empty bags out front that you have to bundle into the bra. I cannot ever imagine them looking normal without surgery.
I am envious of your 34Bs.
Hope your weekend is going well. I will look in on your diary again when I get home.
Omega,
I was going to talk about bosoms at my blog but I see the conversation has already started over here!
I am what my Dr. calls a bosom-wonder! Because of the dance training my puberty was delayed (I had ony had very few periods when I had my accident at 18 years old) and when I had the accident I had very small breasts. My hormones rushed in (with some fat) once I was eating a lot and not doing much sports, so I went from a 28A to a 32 D in about 6 months! I am now a 36 D.
Can you imagine the stretch marks I have on the girls?? I look like a zebra!
My boyfriend says that is the only good thing about the accident (he was there with me and he had quite a bit of trauma from it... he felt guilty for a very long time and.. oh well a different story).
I would like my "girls" to get a bit smaller, which they will if I lose weight! I think a C cup would be lovely! Or even a B cup... I liked them smaller... they didn't bump into people that much!
Well I hope you enjoy your bra, they are wonderful when they fit right!
Love, Cat
Managed to get out for a walk in the morning. Had lunch with schoolfriends – so went over the top at lunchtime.
Went to the reunion and enjoyed myself. There were a number of people from my year and we had all aged a bit. Everyone from my year was very friendly and I was not the biggest girl from my year attending. I was glad that I went.
The most recently that I have seen any of the people was 15 years ago. I have not seen some of the people in over 30 years.

WOW how exciting it sounds like your reunion was a good one! And to not be the biggest in the crowd, ALL RIGHT!! Two thumbs up, see your doing so good! And I read you had to purchase some new bra's and they were quite smaller, YES!!! I had to do the same thing recently as well, I went from a 38D, to now a 34D, this is were I'll probably stay, I don't think I've ever been smaller then 34D since high school and I was just a little thing back then too, weird!! It rained pretty hard here yesterday, so I didn't get out at all, ooohhh those blues! it's over cast today, and I hope it's sunny tomorrow. I hope your week is a good one, I have a feeling it's going to be. Have a lovely day!

On the subject of brassieres, I'm anxious for the day that I can get out of this 38D and go back to a 34C where I belong. But, I'm worried that I'll end up a rack that looks like two half-deflated balloons. The combined effects of gravity, childbirth, breastfeeding 3 kids, and weight gain/loss won't be pretty, I'm sure.
Did long walk and went to my keep fit class. Also went shopping to Tescos on the evening.

Thanks Stacy, Kim and Lagniappe for popping by. I always appreciate your support.
I will try and pop over to your diaries soon.
If only I had managed to halt things at 38D like you Kim and Lagniappe! - I am green with envy.
I cannot remember how big I got - but I know that the size 50G bra that I was wearing was far too small when I got it. I sent for it by mail order when I was in Greece and when I tried to try it on something got spilt onto it and I couldnt send it back. It hung around the house in the wrapping from 2004 when I bought it until I slimmed down to that size around July.
I was listening to big bottomed girls... i think it is an excellent tune (even if we are big bosomed girls, but that works just as well)!
Only 0.2 to go girl and there you are... magical 14 stone!!!! yey!!!! In stine my weight sounds fine, the problem is in kilos and pounds!
I am so proud of you for getting there... and you should too, throw yourself a little low fat walking party!
Love, cat
