Or is that a lie?
Is it true, if you lose weight your boobs get smaller and your stretch marks go away/fade?
It's OFTEN true, but not ALWAYS.
Boobs generally do get smaller when you lose weight... sometimes very notably so. I've heard enough girls complain about how after a long diet all they seem to lose are their boobs. But it's not always the case... it hasn't been for me so far. Course, I'm still pretty fat, but I've lost like twenty pounds the last six months and my boobs aren't any smaller... we'll see if they do if I lose any more.
As for stretch marks... usually they don't vanish completely, but they can and often do fade with time and become less noticable.

Yes they get smaller, as this was the case for me but stretch marks only become faded because of time not weight loss, if anything they will become more apparent right after weight loss, and then get lighter with time.
Unfortunately its true, your tits are the first thing to go: Fortunately science has a cure for that. . . for a price.
Your ass will improve, and your waistline will be thinner than ever.
You will become more focused and sharper than you have ever been and yes the stretch marks eventually fade, I have some on me which is weird, but I barely notice them anymore.

Boobs are mostly made of fat tissue. Losing fat makes you lose some in general you don't get to choose where you lose it from. With luck boobs are the last thing to go. With bad luck they are the first.
Stretch marks may heal over time as your skin adjusts to your bodymass. Some creams and ointments may further help with this.

While I'm not a woman, I'd say depending on the amount of weight loss, your boobs may become smaller, but your stretch marks will not fade or go away. I know, because I was fairly heavy in my early to mid teens and I have stretch marks from back then, over 20 years ago and they look the same as they did then.
However, I would suggest, and I know this is SO hard to be able to accomplish, but try actually embracing your stretch marks! Seriously! For the longest time I ABHORED the stretch marks I had and HATED myself for having them. But over time, I have actually come to not just come to "accept" them, but actually like them. I know that's a difficult concept for most people to understand, but for Pete's sake! They're a natural part of a person's body! Even lifelong fit people have them!
For me, it points to a time of struggle and my ability to overcome that period of struggle in my life. I am proud of what I have accomplished and those marks are like a badge of honour. I jokingly call them my "battle scars". lol Now I no longer see them as a blight on my body, but as a mark of accomplishment. 🙂 I actually like them now and there really isn't a damn thing anyone can say to shake me of what I think of myself, so they are not a "blight" on my body to me at all. And anyone who has a hangup about them, then that's their problem. 😉
As a side note, and not that this applies directly to you or anything, but the funniest thing is that as much as I used to HATE the stretch marks I had, I never once found them "ugly" or "unattractive" on a woman. Ever. It's the weirdest thing. In fact, I have always been attracted to women with stretch marks on their hips, bum, legs, midriff and other areas. It was such an odd internal dichotomy of love/hate.
So, if you have any insecurities about any stretch marks you have, I can assure you, I am NOT the only guy who actually thinks stretch marks can be sexy, or that they otherwise have no issue with them whatsoever. I just believe that since our society has such an unfair negative view of stretch marks, that guys simply don't say that they either like them, or don't care either way out of fear of ridicule. Unfortunately, it goes both ways and can stifle guys and their positive opinion of them.
Again, I assure you there are way more guys similar to me than you'd ever think. Your stretch marks aren't an issue at all. As long as you are beautiful on the inside, that's what counts the most. Learn to love your stripes, ladies! 🙂 -
It really depends on your body type and how you're loosing your weight with the boobs part. For me I excersize and eat less when I'm taking good care of myself, so my boobs do get smaller. Stretch marks are less noticeable only with time and moisturizing
-
There are creams and things for stretch marks, vitamin E capsules applied to the area help too, but they never truly go away. Don't let slightly smaller and possibly firmer breasts and possible stretchmarks keep you from doing what you want. Consider them tiger stripes.
-
Boobs get smaller, thats why big boobs on fat chicks dont count. Also, strech marks stay, there's a chance that they get less visable but they are still there 😋
-
there's is no guarantee, when we lose weight we don't get to pick where the weight will come off first, your body will decide for itself and no one even ourselves can predict where the weight will go first, how much weight goes, how many areas will lose weight
-
Stretch marks will stay, unfortunately.
The breasts will get smaller because the fat in there will be going away. Sometimes that's a lot, sometimes that's little. -
This has always been on my mind because I was nearly close to be being 300 pounds and I was a G cup. After losing weight I now weigh 220 and my size a L cup. So I was sorta confused lol
-
Your breasts obviously would get smaller, because they are lumps of fat, if you lose weight you can't keep all your body fat you've had. But your strech marks won't dissappear. There's no logical answer that could explain the dissappearance of strech marks from weight loss.
-
Stretch marks never go away, they can fade, but I don't think that's due to weight loss. But breasts can get smaller due to losing fat tissue, nit a whole lot usually, but they do.
-
Your boobs are usually the first thing to get smaller because... well... life's cruel. Stretch marks don't fade because you lose weight, the can fade over time because some just do, and they won't get worse because the skin is no longer being stretched to buggery.
-
I think stretch marks also fade, if you work out as well I find cardio helps with stretch marks. I've noticed that on my bottom
-
It's *usually* true.
The stretch marks won't go away completely but they'll fade a lot and your breasts will *probably* shrink although there's no way to tell exactly where and how fast the fat will go away as every body is different. -
I know when I’ve lost weight they’ve gotten smaller but I’m not sure how true it is about the stretch marks.
-
Boobs are fat so they will get smaller if you get thinner. Now about the stretch marks I'm not sure
-
All depends on your family jeans;
My family has big boobs; DD - GG size
I been D/DD since grade 8 & when I was pregnant I was DDD. I have been losing weight and my stretch marks are going away and my boobs have been staying the same. -
Partially true, your breasts will get smaller because they have a lot of fatty tissue so when your percentage of body fat drops so will your breast size. Stretch marks are kind of like scars they're in the skin and stay there!

it may. it may not. there are no guarantees. as far as i know stretch marks may be less noticeable but don't necessarily go away. breast can get smaller with weight loss or they may not. it all depends on where you lose the fat
-
Other-- tits will get slightly smaller but so will things that you want to shrink more like waist and thighs and butt, and will stretch marks fade entirely? No, but they'll be a bit less noticeable.

i don't think stretch marks will go away but your boobs may depending on your genetics.
-
Stretch marks I believe stay, but they become less noticeable, I guess? And boobs are fat tissue, so yeah, they'll shrink.
