The Dark Side of Fat Loss - Shrinking Boobs


Ok, ladies. How many of you've seen some success in your fat loss journey? It feels fantastic when your clothes are looser and you start to see the muscle definition popping out, right? However, there's one small side effect - your boobs shrink along with the rest of you. Unfortunately, underneath the skin the breast is about 80% fat. The rest of the volume is made up of blood vessels as well as the mammary (milk producing) glands. All of a sudden you are not only having to shop for smaller clothes, but also smaller bras! Bummer. You might even wear your favorite bikini and nearly fall off your chair when you notice there is almost nothing left up top!


For the non-US population this is no big deal since small breasts are perfectly normal. But unfortunately for those of us living in the United States there's a lot of pressure to get a boob job. All of my LA ladies have even been conditioned to believe that it is normal for breasts to look like 2 balls plastered to the middle of the chest! Regardless of whether you don't want your boobs to be unproportionately large, chances are you've stuffed your bra and wondered what it would be like if they were just a bit bit bigger.

Although breast augmentation is not for me, I'm not against it in any way. I, like most of you, have been falsely conditioned to think they look great. I even regularly stare at all my friends with boob jobs in awe. However, at this point in my life I'm firmly against putting little balls of man-made material inside my body. It just makes no sense to me to drink wheatgrass and put the best enzymes and minerals into my system, as I get knocked out by anesthesia and stuff plastic-like substance inside me.

The purpose of this article is to provide you with the pluses and minuses of breast augmentation, as well as give you a couple of viable alternatives.

So, let's start with the pluses, shall we? Here they are (these are in ranking order):

1. If you have been working out hard and eating right, you'll look amazing

2. You'll have increased confidence

3. If you haven't lost much weight you'll automatically appear skinnier due to geometry and the laws of proportion

4. Your clothes will fit you better

5. You will get more attention

You may have noticed that every one of these reasons are superficial. That's not bad, just keep it in mind as you make your decision.

Here are the negatives of breast augmentation (in ranking order):

1. You risk death. An NCI study found that women who had breast implants for a minimum of 12 years were more likely to die from brain tumors, lung cancer, other respiratory diseases, and suicide compared with other plastic surgery patients. The danger is extremely small, but I like life a great deal so I would consider it.

3. You risk complications. Even if your boobs look great, many people cannot tolerate foreign substances in their body. While most women may do well after surgery, some do not. Your body may reject the implants and you may become ill. You may have complications associated with surgery including infection, bleeding, or even a slow recovery.

4. You may break the bank. Breast implants cost between $5-10K. If you take this money and invest it in a top quality trainer you will look fantastic even with your small boobs. For $10K I bet there is a way you can snag Jennifer Aniston's trainer for at least a couple of weeks.

5. You need to get your breast implants replaced every 10 years. Again, you risk complications during surgery as well as break the bank at least another few grand.

For those of us that are scared away by these negatives, what will we do?
Lucky for you, there are some natural alternatives. Although these are not as effective as plastic surgery, it is probably worth a shot:

  1. There is no shame in getting a padded bra. It really makes a difference
  2. Search the internet for natural breast enhancement. You'll be surprised at what you find.
  3. Be happy you are pretty and in shape! Stop obsessing over your breasts.
