Calling "larger-busted women" - Sports bras

[Deleted User]

DEFINITELY worth it! I was measured 10 years ago and have spent the past 10 years thinking I was a 34B. Got re-measured a few months ago and was told 32C - and the difference, in both comfort and looks, in the 'new' size is amazing! Suddenly bras fit!! There's not an awful lot of difference between one size and another, when you take into account 3 different positions for a back fastening, and the range you can get on the shoulder straps, but it makes an enormous difference when you're wearing a bra the right size instead of the wrong one...

Yippeeeyaaayyyy!! I'm getting one in the post. This is going to be fun.

It took them a couple of days to get back to me. I'm now thinking I'd better go & get myself measured properly, as from earlier posts I didn't think I'd be in with a chance (I've always been a bit hit & miss on this.)

well I never! I've just had a play with that & seem to be a 36G or thereabouts (ahem! having thought I was a D .....)

Passed this info on to Mrs Greyhound who emailed them pronto. She was very happy with the reply - told her she was too small. I guess you win either way then!!





(Fortunately she hasn't asked what I'm doing lurking on bra threads.....)

That M&S site is scary!
Why do their sizings differ so much from everywhere else???

Never mind size, what about how much they weigh. I once tried to figure this out by putting a scale on the loo & plonking them down whilst kneeling on the floor...but despite being double jointed, I couldn't weigh and look at the same time...I guess the few small glasses of red wine I had beforehand didn't help. But just think, imagine if blokes had to run with a few extra pounds bobbing around their chests..and wondering where to put the pins of your race number..

Actually, orang utan, some of us blokes DO run with a few extra pounds bobbing around our chests. Although in my case I prefer the word "rippling" to "bobbing".

PS Your comments about weighing boobs reminded me of an old joke, but I'll only get slapped if I tell it.

That would only happen if u were surrounded by ..er...slappers? You have to tell now!

Is it possible to change the title of this thread? I keep reading it as "lager-busted women".
