Will i lose my breasts when i lose weight?
If you’re thinking of shedding a few pounds, you may have some concerns about how weight loss would affect your breasts. After all, your bust takes up a lot of space on your chest area, and it’s hard to predict what will happen once those extra pounds start melting off.
In this article, we’ll explore whether losing weight means waving goodbye to our beloved breasts (even though sometimes they get in the way). Let’s dive in!
Understanding Breast Tissue
Before we go any further, let’s take a quick anatomy lesson on our chest friends called ‘breasts’.
Breasts are made up of two distinct types of tissue – glandular tissue and fatty tissue. Glandular tissue is responsible for milk production while fatty tissue adds volume to boobs (and cushion when someone decides to jump into them.) The amount and proportion of each type differ from one person to another which results in different breast sizes and shapes.
What Happens When We Gain Weight?
When you gain weight or experience hormonal fluctuations (such as during pregnancy), hormone levels change leading fat cells around your breast area changes into adipose(fat) tissues that make breasts enlarge thus increase its size which can eventually lead to sagging if not properly held with bras especially at bed time (this fact cannot be emphasized enough).
Are Shrinking Boobs Inevitable With Weight Loss?
Phew! With that behind us now we can tackle the question head-on: Does losing weight = losing breasts? The answer is… Drumroll please… It depends!!!
A study carried out by Dr Kristina Lewis revealed several factors influence whether these tatas stay put or wave goodbye forever:
- Genetics: Some people naturally have more glandular versus fatty tissues in their chests no matter their body composition changes so yep! You might just look fine after shedding a few pounds
- Age: Younger women with more elastin in their skin are less prone to sagging while older people, including postmenopausal Women will have reduced oestrogen and thus less ability for the boobs to firm up
- Amount of weight loss: The effects of losing significant amounts of weight (>50 pounds) can alter your body composition resulting in the reduction of breast size alongside other areas.
- Time-frame – Losing weight gradually over time would definitely cause fewer changes to occur but if you decide on rigorous diets that produce sudden shifts your chances increase.
But before you quiver with fear, take heart! There’s hope yet!
Exercises To Maintain Breast Size
As always prevention is better than cure so make sure you add these exercises (with consult from a physician)to your fitness routine:
- Chest press- works out chest muscles which helps maintain perkiness
- Push-ups: Works the pectorals and deltoids hence tightening it all up
- Dumbbell flyes – They work similarly as pushups only adding resistance leading them much intensive
Investing In Appropriate Bras Help Too
A well-fitted bra (just like court shoes) goes a long way towards maintaining our bosom buddies after dropping off those extra weights we might need firmer grip bras or padded ones to mainTITTY(fidelity) boob shapes provided by nature.
Looking great after losing some extra poundage boils down to various factors such as age, gender, degree & means ( diet/fasting/ surgery/ exercise etc.) Nonetheless there is still fun which comes along trimming down (and sometimes jumping around without worrying about how they bump into each other). So worry not dear one (You aren’t going flat any-time soon!!!)
