Does weight loss mean smaller breasts?

It's a fact: most of us Americans could stand to lose some weight. So we eat better, we exercise, and maybe we shed a few pounds. But most women have a distinct concern: does losing weight mean an equivalent loss of breast tissue? If I get fit, will I need to buy smaller bras?
Weight loss generally affects the entire body at approximately the same rate. Places where excess fat is stored (butt, hips, thighs, etc.) lose a proportionally larger amount of fatty tissue. The breasts lose fatty tissue at approximately the same rate as the rest of the body.
But keep in mind that the breasts are not primarily composed of fatty tissue. The lobules and other tissue, which form the majority of the breast, will not shrink. Thus the reduction in breast size is generally minimal.
Note that everyone is different - and therefore loses weight differently. Your results may differ.
Fortunately, there are some steps you can take to prevent the shrinkage or reduction of the breasts. Supplementation with a top-quality breast enlargement pill will help to counteract these effects.
Additionally, breast enlargement exercises can be used to build up the pectoral muscle and thus create the appearance of larger breasts. Breast enlargement exercises can easily be incorporated into a daily exercise or stretching regimen.
