Question #1:

should I do breast reduction surgery?

I am 5'8'' and weigh 140 pounds, so I am not overweight or skinny, just healthy looking. I am happy with the way I look, except that I am very self conscious of the double D cups I wear... It feels like my chest is always in my way, it's harder to do sports because they bounce everywhere... and the clothes that are made for my size just can not fit my breasts in them. especially swimwear! I'm so jealous of all the girls who can wear these cute bikinis that are held together with these flirty strings and I have to wear extra supportive bra-like swimsuit with thick straps that make dents in my shoulders. and forget about ever wearing anything that is supposed to be worn with no bra...
I know that other girls would like to have the size that I am wearing, plus I suppose my breasts still look healthy and nature makes everyone beautiful in their own way and everything...but sometimes I really feel like reducing the size to a C would make me so much less self conscious and so much more happy. I am considering a breast reduction surgery after I have kids (because I wouldn't want to risk the ability to breastfeed), but the before and after pictures on internet don't look good at all.. is it because those are more severe cases or is that how they generally look after reduction?
do any of you have the same feelings and maybe some have any advice on how to pick well fitting bras for all occasions (strapless dress, everyday wear, sporting needs).
thanks for reading the whole thing!

Question #2:

What different types of modeling are there for different types of bodies?

like obviously there is plus size but i want to know like what kind of girls can do catwalk, or catalog, or swimsuit or underwear. based on there bone structure or breast size.

Question #3:

what types of swimsuits are good for plus size girls?

me and my friend Angeline, were looking at a Victoria's Secret mag that came in my mail. they had already broke out the swimsuits. well, Angeline is a plus size girl. shes not like 300 lbs obese plus size. she's tall, like 5'9", 15, almost 16, and she weighs like 240 lbs or something around that number. but the thing is, she doesn't look like she weighs that much.

but she would like to know what types of swimsuit would look good on her. like, for bottoms, either skirts, Bikini style, or boy shorts? and for the top? tube top? halter? she doesn't care what design or color. but she does like black, purple, and silver a lot
if anything, could i have some links? lol. and she doesnt really care for one peices.
shes tried tankinis, and regular bikinis. she would just like to know, what kinds would flatter her weight better
and i think she would need an XL...i think.....lol
and unlike plus size women, she has a flat chest. she wears either an A or B not DD like some plus size girls

Question #4:

Birth control weight gain?

I know this isn't the best place for this but I figured you ladies would be able to help me the most.

Long story short:
I was on Ortho-Tri-Lo ( I abbreviated it...) but went to the regular Ortho because there wasn't a generic for the low hormone pill and in two months I gained twenty pounds. I did not change my exercise or eating habits except from graduating high school and starting college (lack of a Phys. Ed. class) and my Gyno found a generic for Ortho-Tri-Lo so after a month off any pill I restarted with the Lo. And low and behold I gained five more pounds. Add that to the five pounds or so I always gain in the winter (can't play tennis or go hiking in Upstate NY all winter long...) and I went from a happy size six/seven weighing about one forty to a grumpy size nine-eleven who weighs one seventy. And by the way? I'm five foot two. One hundred and seventy pounds does not look good on someone my height.

I really want to lose this weight by the summer because I have an internship in West Palm Beach, FL and I'd like to not hate my swimsuit this summer. :(

So I bought the Wii Fit Plus and I just got my Weight Watchers kit today, how possible/how hard will it be to get back down to one forty?

Question #5:

where can I find lingerie for a top heavy woman?

I have a very hard time finding things that fit me properly, whether is be clothing or under wear or swimsuits. I am 4' 11" and 115lbs. My waist size is 26inches but I wear a 36DD bra and that was just the way God made me. Every time i search for large bust clothing items I get directed to plus size apparel sites. I'm not fat I just have huge hooters. Please help, I want to wear nice things that don't fit like potato sacks.

Question #6:

Do you think that they should quit making swimsuits in plus sizes?

I don't like seeing these huge women at the beach... btw i mean two-pieces.

Question #7:

Is it appropriate for a dad to take 40 pictures of his well developed 14 yr. old in a bikini on the beach?

My husband and I have been raising his two daughters for 10 years, plus we have a three year old together. His middle daughter is 14 but looks much older with a size 5 waist and D cups. My husband took her and a friend boating and took 40-50 pictures of the two girls in their swimsuits. Now my step daughter has posted the pics on myspace and I am infuriated! I can't help but to wonder wether it was appropriate for him to take that many photos of her in such a revealing manner in the first place, much less now that they are all over the internet. Need Advice Please.

Question #9:

How to figure out size of swimsuit?

I'm trying to purchase some swimsuits on swimoutlet.com, but I'm a bit confused about the sizes. On the sizing charts, when it says girls size 14, does it mean as in "age 14" kind of thing? (that's what I orignally thought, and all my "size 14" shirts fit me). I'm 5'3" and am about 100 pounds. Could someone please help me figure out what size is best? (for practice, not competition :D) I thought size 32 at first because the girls is size 14, but it's also on plus sizes, so something must be wrong with what i'm thinking? thanks :D

Question #10:

Where can I find a plus size sports swimsuit?

I wear a size 18/20 in womens. I have been working out more and found that I really enjoy swimming. I'm looking for a good sport swimsuit, but haven't been able to find a proper suit in my size. Where should i look??

thanks for your help!

Question #11:

Are my breasts done growing?

I'm 15, 5'7 and 133 pounds. I've been a 34A since my breasts started growing around the age of 12. I'm extremely self conscious about my small chest size. Plus I live in an area where everyone is always in their swimsuits. Please be mature about this questions, thanks guys!

Question #12:

Clothing Websites/Stores for large-busted women?

I'm a 36 J in American sizes, 36 GG in British sizes, and buying clothes is difficult because either I can't fit my chest into a shirt or dress or I have to buy a plus-size shirt or dress that hangs off my chest very unattractively. Don't even get me started on swimsuits. Any suggestions?

Question #13:

How can a plus size girl win a beauty pageant? Especially if there isn't a fitness in swimsuit competition?

I want to do the America's National Teenager Competiton Click Here but I'm not sure if there is a chance for a girl who is a size 12 to win?
I'm not ugly,and I actually carried a state title back in 2008 but it was a different pageant system.

Question #14:

Out of these two swimsuits - which do you think is best? Need advice please! =)?

I am getting a new suit for the summer.
I am a plus size female (size 16/18) with a fairly ample chest area.
While I am attempting to loose weight - at this point, my tankinis with the halter ties from jcrew are not working and are digging into my neck. AGH!

So, I am down to choosing from these two suits:

Suit 1 ) Click Here ...
(which I would get in aqua. I like this one but I worry about looking super matronly in the skirt... I'm not self conscious about my legs or anything, I just like the skirt look - kind of pin up esque. I've also NEVER bought a one piece before and the only one pieces I can even remember owning actually pushed my boobs DOWN rather than up - which is why I always wore tankinis...)

Suit 2) Click Here ...
(I would get this in rose because I hate black suits... I like that this is a tankini because that it what I am used to, but I almost wonder if a once piece wouldn't be better? I like that the skirt is in this one but it SEEMS to be shorter and more for decoration rather than coverage, which I like.)


Anyhow, if you look at each link and go to color choices and back view you can see all angles of the suit.

I wish I could buy both and just return the one I don't like but I really don't have the funds for all that...

anyhow - help is *GREATLY* appreciated!!!
agh! Edit:
I didn't realize the links would post that way! sorry!

this is option 1's style code #: Style: 67164W

this is option 2's style code # : Style: 79363wa

Question #16:

How do you use a swimsuit size chart?

I need to buy a swimsuit, and I am going to do it online because I am "plus sized" and there is a much wider variety of suits I can find online than in my local stores.

However, I don't understand the size charts.

The top row is the swim suit sizes. Each swim suit size is above your bust, torso, hip, and waist measurements

For an example click here >>> Click Here <<< and go to the size chart tab that is under the "add to cart" button

I don't understand how to pick the proper size if my measurements do not match the measurements listed for the swimsuit sizes.

I am GUESSING you have to pick the ones that are closest to what your actual measurements are... If thats the case is it better to pick a size that's a bit smaller than your measurements, or a bit bigger?

Question #17:

Halters bathing suit? Help!!?

Hi everyone,

I brought a plad swimsuit and the top is kind of small for my boobs so ima have to bring it back. Plus they dont have the next size. But i have broad shoulders and im a 38c and im 5'3 if that helps. i heard halter tops looks good and not string binkins for broad shoulders. So does any one knows where can i get cute halter binkins. That aint expensive and super cute.

Question #18:

Help wear 34DD and need swimsuit, VS dosent have any cute ones that fit my top half..?

Im not plus size or nothing i wear a medium bottom, and a XL top is too small, what websites have swimsuits that arent in the UK??
by UK i mean that is not located in the United Kingdom, b/c its a hassle shipping back if it does not fit

Question #19:

If guys prefer thinner girls...why is nearly every girl overweight/obese?

I'm not even kidding. I asked a question a while ago to clarify what I meant..meat on the bones seems to generally mean like Kim Kardashian as one man pointed out...THIN, but curves in the boobs, ass, and thicker thighs etc.
I see so many girls do so many other things to look good for guys (get their hair and nails done consistently, buy lots of new clothing which shows cleavage, buy special perfumes etc), but I hardly see a girl who is thin anymore (and I live in California!)
I know not everyone has the same body type, but ever since when has "curvy" meant XXL and point to Marilyn Monroe to an example of plus-size being beautiful...look at the link in additional details -- does she REALLY look plus size, or just curvy?
Anyways, I'm honestly very very curious...because even swimsuit models have nice, flat tummies...they just aren't anorexic thin.
Thanks ^^

Could someone actually answer the question instead of freaking out at me for stating the obvious? If you read my first sentence, you would know that most men do NOT want anorexic looking girls.
i am stating that marilyn monroe is the ideal...but a lot of girls use her as an excuse to be xxl and say guys prefer xxl...although monroe is a healthy weight. -_-

Question #20:

I need a swimsuit that works for me!?

I need some serious help. I need to find a one piece bathing suit that is forgiving in the stomach area with some roushing, good underwire support (I wear a 38D) that is in a dark color in a plus size or XL. Please help me, Im going on my honeymoon in 56 days.
