Help help help guys! :) Sports bra question! :)

Sep 23, 2010 22:02

Hi y'all!  I am one week out recovering from breast reduction (done for back issues) and I couldn't be happier. Today, I got the okay to find a bra OTHER than my post surgery velcro monstrosity. I've not been a cup size where I could shop anywhere but very specialty stores since I was in middle school and all embaressed about bra shopping, period, so I need some help with reccs about where to find a good bra for my specific needs.

I need a sports bra, front closure (zip or hook; velcro owuld work too) in probably a 44-48 D (or so). Lots of support would be great- but absolutely no underwire, since I've still got dressings and suture lines. Something I can get locally would be great- I'm in Dallas. Where do you shop for plus size sports bras? ARE there any brick andmorter places that stock them?

I am SO happy about deciding to have the reduction. I'm just able to be so much more active ALREADY and it rocks. The recovery's been a lot less than I was warned about and was afraid of, other than the lifting restrictions.

Also, a HAES doctor reccomendation and kudos to Dr Dorothy Sherwood- she's an internist at Presby in Dallas and she ROCKS.

ETA: I forgot about the Maddox shop (if anyone else needs a recc)- they don't have what I need right now, but just in case that helps someone else local.

Has anyone purchase from justmysize.com? I found what I need here - Valmont Zip Front Sports Bra. It is not a terribly structured bra and we'll see in a few weeks/months how it holds up for real bounce control, but I apparently need something with no seam and no underwire because of surgery recovery requirements.
