ChiKat, I know! And my size is fairly consistent, but that stuff happens all the time.
A year and a half ago, I could have eviscerated him with my thoughts. Now I can barely hurt his feelings. Things used to be so much simpler.

This cold went from alert to Defcon 4 in record time. It's a good thing there was a sale on Puffs. Now if my sinuses would stop exploding.
I think bras are sized completely at random. They should be sized so that the number is the diameter of the chest and the letter is the size of the boob.

Yeah, this happened to me yesterday. Today I am at work like an idiot, but will be leaving soon to rest for the afternoon.

I don't know what has happened to bra sizing in the past 20 years. It used to be that (when I was a 34B), any brand I tried on they all fit the same. Didn't matter the style, didn't matter who made it. Now, I have to try on bra after bra and even the same manufacturer isn't consistent with the sizing. It's ridonkulous.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
If a 34B in every style fit you, that means there were other 34Bs who couldn't find anything to fit properly.

Ha! I didn't mean to bogart all the well-fitting bras! That was back in my Victoria's Secrets days, when everything fit the way it was supposed to.

Yesterday, I was noticing in the bathroom mirror that my boobs were definitely lower than they should be, so I moved up my straps another inch this morning. Hopefully, this will keep them high and dry for a bit!

But when I have a 42C that's too big and I'm fighting with the straps, why should I try on bras and the ones that fit are a 42DD and a40DD?
It's pretty common when you lose weight to lose a band size and gain a cup size.

Also, this. The lingerie shop where I got my longline bra to wear with my wedding dress does alterations. I'm only buying bras there if I can help it! They carry basically the same ones at the same price Nordstroms does anyway, just not as many.

Yep. When I lost weight, that was the exact change I went through with bras.
