Breast reduction through diet and exercise?
Hello,
Do you know of a diet and/or exercise regimen that might result in reducing breast size in a woman who's 25, has always been thin no matter what she ate (approx. 5'4" 100-105 lbs.) but has always had relatively large breasts? This is probably her last hope before a breast reduction surgery. Thank you. Ann |

Ann There is no such thing - while you can tone your chest muscles, there is nothing, short of losing overall fat, that shrinks a particular area. |

(Although, I think it is a silly thing to fret about unless there are medical complications.) I really don't see why women obsess over them either way. They are a turn on for most men regardless of size, but the biggest turn on for men is a women that loves them and wants them. (Note, I said men, not boys.) |

They are a turn on for most men regardless of size, but the biggest turn on for men is a women that loves them and wants them. (Note, I said men, not boys.) If this woman is a candidate for breast reduction surgery (that is, if a reputable doctor would operate on her), she probably has heavy enough breasts to cause her significant discomfort. At 5'4" and 100-105 lbs., this woman is extremely slight. Large breasts might well be placing a strain on her back, for example. And to Ann: It's unlikely that diet or exercise would help in this case. This woman clearly has very low bodyfat. The only way to reduce breast size is overall weight loss, and it won't come only from the breasts. And weight loss wouldn't be a good idea for someone this light. Chris |

Within limits, the question isn't what you're carrying; it's how you're carrying it. Back pain is often caused by having insufficient strength in your abdominal muscles -- the transversus abdominus and the obliques. Most aerobic classes emphasize the rectus abdominus -- a muscle that has far little impact on alleviating back pain. Pilates is the one thing I know which is most effective at developing these and other postural muscles. I suggest having a look at _The Pilates Promise_ at your local bookstore and look at the before/after pictures after the 3 women worked with the instructor for 10 weeks. While none of them have comparable measurements to the OP's friend, you can definitely get a good sense what's available. Any surgery carries risk; I strongly recommend trying Pilates before seriously considering such an option. --phil |

I know of one woman who had the surgery and was pleased with the results. Having your bodyfat percentage checked is probably a good idea, though. -S- http://www.kbnj.com |

I don't know if you are in a position to have children, but if you ever are,
nurse your child/children as long as possible. Like you, I hated my big breasts because I was so active and they were an annoyance (running with them was not comforable). I nursed 4 children, each for a minimum of 14 months, one until she was 3. The end result is great--smaller breasts without breast reduction surgery and 4 healthy kids! "Ann" wrote in message m...

We'll take a vote and decide. |
