Have lost a load of weight and am struggling to find my bra size.

Under bust (nice and taut) I am 29.5 inches.

Overbust standing up I am 36 inches.

Overbust bending over I am 37 inches.

I bought a few cheap bras off Ebay in 30E (Panache and Curvy Kate) and they don't fit Sad.

Even after enthusiastic scooping I have bulging back fat, bulging underarm fat and the cups seem far too small.

Should I go back to my comfy 32 band bras or try more 30 backs with bigger cup sizes?

Please help a clueless idiot Flowers

I'd try a 30G in the first instance.

But I am sure one of the bra interventionalists will be along soon Smile

If the cups seem far too small I'd go up at least two cups to a 30FF. You won't be able to sort backfat if there's no cup space to put it in. You've got a 7.5" difference between underbust and overbust which would be roughly a FF cup. Don't be afraid to try even bigger though. Curvy Kate also tend to run smallish in the cup

I used the advice when I went shopping the other day and discovered that rather than being a 34A, which all the shops told me I was, I'm now happily wearing a 32C!
