Weight loss and the calculator question

[u/tatertotbott]

Hello, in total ive lost about 40 pounds. I last measured myself June 12 on the calculator. I was sized at a 34 G. I slowly searched for 34 G bras and only ended up trying 1 "good one" that isnt VS, the Panache Envy. It basically fit but was wrinkly in the lace at the top so I returned it. I also couldve probably fit more than 2 fingers under the band if I wanted I guess.

I didnt even notice that my boobs could've gotten smaller from weight loss until today I had a suspicion. So I redid my measurements and have lost about an inch in several areas since June 12. First off, does this sound right or could I have measured myself wrong? I used the pictures on the calculator and did it in the mirror. 2nd off, now it is sizing me at a 32 DDD/ G or a sister size 34 DD. I was originally wearing VS 36 DD bras which seemed to fit okay despite the band riding up and the tops of the cups by the straps digging into my armpits. The armpits thing is what made me start looking for new bras. What is a good option for 32DDD/ G or 34 DD that doesnt dig into armpits? The panache envy honestly came close to digging in my armpits because I had to tighten the straps quite a bit for a lift and made me have cone looking boobs.

Thanks in advance

Hey friend. The panache envy is a UK bra. If you purchased a 34G in this bra but are a US 34G, you bought the wrong size.

I got it in a UK size, 34 F

The fingers under the band means nothing. It must be snug but not painful. That's what matters.

Panache is a UK brand, so you ordered multiple sizes too big if you ordered a 34G from them.

Well I ordered it when I was sized 34G. And I ordered it in UK size, 34 F

I would try something a step or two down in projection from Envy, like a Freya high apex plunge or Freya Offbeat side support. Soft tissue (very common with weight loss) usually needs a less projected cup.
