Since I can remember, I've always worn a 36B {so since I was about 16.} Over the last few years, I'm well aware of the fact that I've gained weight and after having finally sacrificed to buy new clothes to fit me, I always kept up with the same bras. Recently, I noticed that my boobs aren't staying in the cups as well as, well, they're supposed to so I measured myself and came up with a new size. . . a size that looks way too big. I didn't even think to try the bra on because I really felt that my boobs would not fill the cups.

Tonight, my friend and I stopped at Victoria's Secret and I decided that I would get professionally measured, just to see if I was right or if I had completely gotten it wrong ... and I was right. So I finally tried on the bra and it actually fit. A 38C is what I'm supposed to be wearing. I'm still having a hard time wrapping my head around the fact that a bra that big fits me. It kind of sucks because I only just recently bought all new bras and now I have to do this all over again. I guess I could always just keep this in a safe place for when* I lose weight. {*It will happen ... it's just a matter of finally motivating myself to get it done.}

Anywho, I guess when I get paid on Friday I'll be making a trip to Target and hoping that I can find a couple really nice, inexpensive {not $48} bras.

Good luck on bra shopping! I wish they would make a more standard system for bras though. I have different measurements for the 3 places that I look for bras at.

I'm glad you found a bra size that fits you better. Personally I don't like Victoria Secret's measuring system. The couple times I've gotten measured there, they've told me to try 32 C, which doesn't feel good at all.
