stephanie is: hopeful unsure…

i got a lot done to my site when i got home. i worked on it till dinner, then a bit afterwards. some undies i ordered from vs arrived. they had been havig a big sale. i noticed that they sold AA bras online so i decided to try that since A bras are too big for me. and of course it is way too big. in fact i could fit it OVERTOP of my padded A bra. argh! why does victoria’s secrect make every bra a b cup or higher, no matter what they call it?? and why don’t i have boobies? right now i am size 1 on both top and bottom. in high school i weigh as much as 12 lbs more, and i was a largish size 5 on the bottom yet still a size 1 with no boobies on top. i was miserable about my unproportioned body in highschool. i wouldn’t tuck in shirts. the only good thing about my allergy to cheese that came along when i developed allergies around college, was that it evened my body out to a size 1 all over. it’s pretty sad still though. if i buy a size 1 dress i have to either sew a padded bra into it or sew it smaller. it’s because they put B cups on them. ugh. it’s just something that has been getting to me for a long time. everyone says “oh you’ll get boobs when you have a baby”… that’s nice but i’m no where near ready to have a baby. and i’ve heard about birth control pills effects, but i’m not quite to the point where i want to stuff my body full of hormones. maybe later..

i have had the urge to be healthier lately. i am going to take my daddy’s suggestion of drinking protein shakes. i am going to eat healthy foods that are easy for my tummy to digest. and ima stop being a wuss with my sesame street vitamins and i’m going to start taking a women’s supplement. i’ll prolly choose a pms formula so that maybe my cramps can calm down a bit. perhaps much-needed protein (i am a vegitarian who can’t eat cheese) plus a full daily vitamin will help me in the boobie department?

i won’t get my hopes up. i just need to worry about feeling healthy and rested. i want to feel comfortable in my skin. but i just feel like i am constantly remided of my body’s flaws since it is so hard to find clothes that fit, and well – i am kinda attached to my body.

i am in uber ramling mode so i’ll shut up now. this is just something that has been bouncing around my head so much lately i have to write it down of go crazy….

goodnight..

  1. Oh, honey. I feel you so much! Except in the total opposite direction. I find myself buying “granny bras” ’cause my boobies are too big! I have two, count ’em, TWO colored bras, and the only way I found them was ordering them through a specialty catalog… I hate my boobs and would lop ’em off in a second, except I want to breastfeed my future babies…

    I’m totally turning over a new leaf… I’m going on a strict veggie/fruity/soupy/no salty diet… I can’t have this extra weight dragging along behind me…

    😉

  2. Boobies.

    I had a friend in college like you Steph. She’s had a kid now and weighs more than I do. (Not saying much, but it’s all relative, you know..)

  3. i gave up with victoria secret bras cause i have the same problem..i’m a 32AA and it’s impossible..their bras are always huge and padded and they make me feel like a stuffed animal..heh..

    i have maybe 1 or 2 “real” bras that fit..but normally i just wear little half*tanktop type bras..i’m in the same with the “unproportioned” feeling to..although i’ve gone up a little bit to almost size 3 on the bottom but i’ve stayed a size 1 on the top for the longest time..it is very frustrating..:(

  4. Hmm,…

    …vegetarian diet without cheese, but healty. I would suggest the indian cuisine, the most hindus eat vegetarian and that for thousands of years, the indian cookery don’t knows that kind of cheese like we know, they only use a fresh-cheese who’s not older than a week. There are some great cookbooks available who contains vegatarian-only cuisine.
    I know you’re vegatarian, but what level? Do you eat fish? Well, I guess not, fish a great source of protein, but milk, yogurt, curds and kefir, all not low fat, just normal, should be a substitute, too.
    Well, allergies, I have my own ones mostly hay-fever and a little against housedust(sp?).
    What I’ve learned the last time is that many allergies can be caused by the thousands and thousands of chemicals we are exposed, especially in our food. Like food-colouring, flavours and preservation-chemicals.
    Well, and to the “boobie department”, I can only second another quote, that it’s realy looking okay.
    Have a nice day anyway 🙂

  5. I *suppose* you feel my pain…I cant shop at V.S. but in the opposite way. First, they dont have anything over a 38 and with boobs as big as mine its easier to get a bigger numbered size then to find Fs. I havent been able to get a decent bra for years now.

    Try running or even jumping in my gazoombas! Sigh

  6. Whew!! Iam glad iam a guy!!

    and that i dont have to worry about boobs and bras and cramps and all the stuff that goes with being a women because i dont have the stuff you ladies have to get thru it (no pun intended)

  7. Boob story for Steph.

    You will either have to up the estrogen levels in your body or gain about 10 pound to see any boob growth. Sad, but true.
    Your body is beautiful, but I feel your pain, oh small-chested one. I go through that same thing off and on, but then I tell myself that at least my boobs look good, which might NOT be the case if they were too big. lol. It is bizarre for me because the women in my family have HUGE boobs. My best friend was a DD and her breasts almost SCARED me from the hugeness factor. It was just foreign to me. Also, I started developing very young, but apparently it just ceased. I was always an A, but when I gained more weight I became a “B”. Not a huge B but a B, you you better believe I was thrilled! I remember putting on an A bra in the store once and having it be TOO SMALL! The heavens opened and a choir of angels sang.
    Basically, I am 5 foot 3 and I have to weigh over 105 lbs just to keep the Bs. If I go below 95, they get smaller. You have so little body fat and breast tissue is the first thing to go away- since they are basically all fat.
    The only other thing that will increase the size is if you take the pill… The boobs may or may not be permanent.. they might go away once you adjust. I have also heard that soy products in large doses can increase breast size by stimulating estrogen production.
    One more thing about grrlie problems: My good friend had super bad cramps and heavy bleeding. She would even pass out. I was afraid she was going to die because she has passed out on the stairs and in the shower! It turns out she was bleeding from her uterus or something aside from normal bleeding. She just took the Ortho tricyclen pill for just a few months which regulated the whole deal and then she was fine.
    But our other friend took it.. and her breasts grew SO huge, like 3 sizes bigger.. her wedding dress didn’t even fit right! frightening.
    I have never taken birth control pills because 200 mg Luvox did the trick for me with the PMS problems.

  8. I know you hate to hear this, but I will just tell you the truth. hehe

    *Caution—Mommy instinct kicks in*

    You are beautiful just the way you are…
    Sounds like a bunch of bullsh*t huh? My mom used to say that to be all the time in high school as we purchased my bras from the little girlies department…I always hated my body in high school I was always freakish… I was 5’8″ and weighed about 97 lbs. My bra size never even registered in the women’s departments, in the little girls department I was a size small. Imagine being so tall and so skinny and sooo flat. I hardly dated in high school none of the guys liked how I looked… 🙁 It was very troubling at times…. skip ahead four years…
    Maegan was born and the boobie fairies smiled down on me and now allow me to shop in the women’s department… My mom said she was the same way…So unfortunatley you will just have to be patient…

    Or you could buy those silicone thingers that fit into your bra and then you would be any size that you want… Just my rambling thoughts… Just remember that we all ruv you no matter what size your boobies are. 😉

  9. Hey

    I just wanted to tell you I have the same problems with my body. I was always underweight and had to drink protein shakes in school. It wasn’t until I went on the pill that I gained enough weight to feel healthy, but then the pill made me miserable. I was constantly naseaus and had the worst mood swings I’ve ever had. They even made my cramps worse. Now I’m married and we decided to have a baby. Let me tell you, being pregnant isn’t fun either. I feel like my body hates me no matter how healthy I eat. At 2 months pregnant I can’t wait until it’s over. i have to keep reminding myself that it’ll be worth all this hell in the end. But don’t worry, everyone is different, just try to be healthy.
