There is a weight loss support group on this forum whom I sure would love to hear how you did it :0) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bra-sizingalterations#post-114783 Wed, 06 Jan 2010 07:38:49 +0000 londonkiwi (now back in NZ) 114783@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Angie. I think that I would probably only need a small alteration, so it will be interesting to see what is possible. </p> <p>I am quite proud of the weightloss, and am feeling 100 times better than I did this time last year about my size. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bra-sizingalterations#post-114507 Tue, 05 Jan 2010 17:26:19 +0000 Angie 114507@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congrats on the weight loss! </p> <p>You can have bras altered, but not to a great extreme. Have your fitting, bring your bras and perhaps the pros can offer suggestions on whether it's possible. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bra-sizingalterations#post-114455 Tue, 05 Jan 2010 13:40:02 +0000 londonkiwi (now back in NZ) 114455@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Over the last 6 months I have lost about 8kgs and have lost about 2kgs in the last couple of weeks, the result being that I am all of my bras are now too big in the band. The cup seems to be fine in most of them.</p> <p>I am going to get myself fitted this weekend, but I can't afford to replace all of my underwear in one go. </p> <p>Has anyone ever attempted to alter a bra band? I know that it wouldn't be the perfect solution, but since I want to loose another 5 kgs it might be a less costly one. I am presuming that you may have to move the straps as well?</p> <p>For those of you who have gone up/down sizes what has your replacement strategy been?</p> <p>Thank you</p> <p>Fi</p> <p>PS - for those of you using imperial weights - 1kg = 2.2lbs </p>
