In fact, I'm having a hard time taking a deep breath.
I bought my first sports bra.
Orange, thank you very much.
But I have a question.
Are they supposed to feel like they are squishing your ...ummm...mammary glands into your shoulder blades?
I got the right size. I'm sure cuz I even put my reading glasses on to check the size. TWICE!
Are they supposed to feel like this?
And isn't it kind of like shutting the barn door after the cows get out?
It's not like the sports bra is going to re-perk the already un-perked.
You know.
I'm really beginning to feel like this whole walking gig is just not worth the pressure.
ha!
Get it?
Pressure?
Sports bra?
Ahhhh...
Never mind.
I think the sports bra may have cut off some oxygen to my brain, too.
Another item that has become un-perked over the years.
...
...
Sigh...
Orange is my fave color! Sports bras - the ultimate bust crushers.
ReplyDeleteI am women , hear me ROAR!
Yep! They do a good job of squishing them in! Helps walking though, promise .........
ReplyDeleteJenny - good to know. I was looking online for one. I too walk and the girls oh the poor girls. They used to be big now they are just long. Sad, sad, sad.
ReplyDeleteI got a dog 3 yrs ago and I walk 3 miles a day with her. i saw a picture of the muscles in my calf. Amazing. My legs are short and they look like a Russia lifter for heaven's sake. I put my glasses on for this?
They SQUEEZE me too much, SO... I don't wear them:) I suggest you use it to keep your melons from rolling off the kitchen counter instead of wearing it! HaHaHa, I just made a funny:) HUGS!
ReplyDeleteI only wear sports bras My niece tells me I have a uniboob
ReplyDeleteJenny Dear, they are supposed to be squeezy for "motion reduction" You probably bought one that is good at that. I recommend that you wear it for walking. Keeps you from ruining your other bras and from them ruining your skin - with things like chaffing. If you don't get used to it buy one with a lower level of motion control.
ReplyDeleteOh way too funny!!!
ReplyDeleteCan't help you here--sorry. I
don't own one.
Stop by Sunday's post--I am
celebrating!

Heck, I don't even wear a regular one unless I have to leave the house. Maybe not having big boobs isn't so bad. NOT!
ReplyDeleteSorry for the squishing.
I only get my boobs squished once a year ... at the mammogram ... bras of any kind that squish, i just don"t wear ... even if it leads to bouncing in the most unfortunate way ... keep walking!!!
ReplyDeleteLOL xD I must admit to not being a fan of sports bras... all the ones I've tried are uncomfortably tight too! Nice colour though ;)

Jenny I have one and it's the most uncomfortable thing...but if I were to start walking, well it might be helpful...but that squeezing you mention makes me think I'll keep thinking about it!
ReplyDeleteYeah, I'm not a fan. I've just been wearing some sporty type bras {no underwire!} and just a tank top. The sports bras are really smooshing to my, you know glands.
ReplyDeletexoxox
Can't help ya out there sister, I'm rollin' my mams up like socks just to fit in my bras (I mean over the shoulder boulder holders). I haven't been able to fit in a sports bra in years. I don't think they make em big enough to fit me. I'm better off with ace bandages.
ReplyDeleteAs one who has transitioned from a
ReplyDelete36B to a 36 long, I can't offer much to you but sympathy.
Hi Jenny! Yes they get squeezed quite a bit but if you're only walking and not running..I'd suggest the next size up...so you can breath better.
ReplyDeleteHow are the grands? You must be dying of the heat out there! It's going to be 90 here tomorrow.
Take care,
Patti :)
I love sports bras! But considering I play soccer every single day, I need one. And I don't mind the um, "squishing". Just wait for it to stretch out a bit, and you will like it better! And good color choice!
ReplyDeleteSports bras are not much fun to wear. But they do the job. Love that you got yours in orange. :)
ReplyDeleteMary
I almost always wear sports bras because I can't stand bouncing. On the other hand, I'm not massive round the bust, so there isn't quite so much squishing, just a lot less joggle.
ReplyDeleteI hate the things, I sweat more and then they get all well you know...UGH. Good luck
ReplyDeleteThis kind of bra tends to squeeze the breaths out of me! Now, I had nothing to worry about anymore :-)
ReplyDeleteSort of feels like a little straight jacket, doesn't it? I wore one for a few weeks when my brachial plexus was acting up. I needed to get my bra straps off my shoulders. Suck it up, sister!!! Actually, I always wanted to be smaller in the bust. The problem with a sports bra, however, is that it makes you look like you have only one breast that stretches all the way across your chest. Hahahahaha!!!
ReplyDeleteI am with Judie! I work with a woman that paid a lot of money to get breast implants! She will not stop wearing sports bras saying they feel better than regular bras! Weird!
ReplyDeleteI am also one of the unperked brain and breast crowd.
ReplyDelete;)
Oh, I am laughing like an idiot. I swear, sitting her at my computer, nobody else around, laughing out loud. You are so funny! I remember when I bought one of those things, thinking it looked more comfortable than a regular bra. Whoaaaa, was I ever wrong! laurie
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear sports bras are such a pain. I've never tried one. Good to know.
