Checking in!
After losing 21# I lost my job and my car, which sent me into a bout of inactivity and toward a big ol' pint of icecream. Yay, depression won again. I gained back several pounds and am at an odd size now (a 16-19 instead of the firm *15* I'd gotten down to), but since Monday I've become more active again. I'm hoping it will catch again. Everyone slips up and it's alright to take time for yourself, right? The important thing is that I keep trying!
I finally got a proper bra fitting (36FF, omg). It does feel better, but a bit of niggling back pain is still persistent. I'll keep losing weight and if they don't shrink down, I'll just phone up the reduction surgeon I've been eyeing. Even if it doesn't help with the back pain, it'd be nice to be able to sit at a table without them blocking my way!

Glad to hear you got a new bra and a UK brand, good for you. I know an FF cup sounds depressing but if it makes you feel better technically, I'm a 26G but size 26 bands are viturally non existent so I wear a 28 FF. On my small frame I don't consider it a huge size. I always thought I was small but wearing a properly fitting bra makes me look less grandmotherly. I'm not a even a grandmother! If Victoria Secrets and many department stores quit trying to convince women that they're all in the A-DD range and put them in good fitting bras you'd see more women wearing larger cup sizes.

Bra fitting takes awhile. I thought my 30DD's were great, until the band stretched a little. It took me a long time to realize they weren't. Then I went to 28G's, miscalculated that one. Once I started learning about my shape I was able to settle into 1 brand and 2 styles that work for me. Did you measure your band tight or loose? If you measured loose you could also consider trying these sizes (UK,not US sizing), 34FF, a band/cup size down or 34G, same cup volume as your FF, but tighter band. Also, remember to "swoop and scoop" often.

I don't have any other advice except to say good job on your progress.
