My little sister has a bigger chest than me...?

Question

I know this question will seem petty to the majority of the people reading this, but it's something that really effects me day to day. I'm 15, 16 in three months, and I'm a 34AA. It wouldn't bother me so much if I were a smaller person height-wise, because at least then I'd seem more 'proportioned'. Right now, I stand at 5'9" and I don't believe I've finished growing. Furthermore, my little sister who's 13 (turning 14 next week) is bigger then me. It really does a number in my mind, and has an effect on my generally healthy eating habits. Because of that I don't want to gain back all the weight I lost by eating because I'm depressed. (I was 150 pounds, I now weigh in at 125-128 pounds). Is my dieting what effects the size of my breasts, because my sister eats everything and anything and she never gains any weight but in her chest. Please, help?

Answer 1

Breast tissue is not 100% fat, it's also mammory glands, and stuff. Maybe your 13 yr old sister just has more breast tissue than you have. Or more fat in her breasts. It's not a big deal.

If you have lost 25 pounds, GOOD JOB, and please do not gain all that back!

It's so uncomfortable to be fat, don't gain weight.

Your sister might be able to eat what she wants and not gain an ounce, but that will stop in a few years, so you better tell her to watch out, or she'll be fat at the age of 18!

Oh and by the way, I think you are done growing. If you are 16, you are done. (i was done growing at 13). You can go get an X-Ray, and the doctor will confirm that you are done growing by looking at your bones.

Cheers

Answer 2

No it's not. What you need to realise is that you and your little sister are entirely different people, and though from the same parents can have widely different genetics due to getting some from each parent. She's obviously turned out to develop earlier, and you are not as fast.

You are 15, there is still a lot of growing in you yet. You won't be fully developed for a good few years yet. And you're your own person, you aren't twins and you can't expect to be just like her.

Embrace the fact that you're both different and wait and see, at your age chances are you aren't going to end up staying a 34AA, but even if you did, who cares? Breasts are not the be al and end all, it really is what's inside that counts. So long as you keep yourself healthy just let your body get on withwhat it's doing!

Worst comes to worst and it really gets you down, a push up bra might make you feel a little better whilst you wait for everything to stop growing.

At 15 you shouldn't have to worry about this stuff, go out and have fun!

Answer 3

Some people are just blessed. I think we all wish we could eat anything and not gain weight. You should continue eating healthy(don't starve yourself) and try not to worry about your sister being bigger than you. All that eating will probably eventually catch up to her. She is only 13 and still has a pretty good metabolism so it's easier for her to burn the calories. Just hang in there and if it doesn't change, there is always the option of surgery(after you are 18 and fully developed), although I don't recommend it. I have very large breasts and hate it. Just hang in there!

You seem to be a very sweet an honest young woman. That beats breast size any day of the week! I'm a happily married man and I never did understand why the big breast thing was such a big deal to guys. Some of the sexiest girls I knew as a single guy were not big breasted. I found out after I married my wife that she had once considered getting a boob job! I'm so thankful she didn't! I love a woman who is exactly the way God created her to be! You may envy your sister, but consider your advantages over her! For instance, she will unfortunately have more guys interested in her simply because of her larger size...that's a given. But how many of those guys will she have to sort through to find the one that loves her for her character alone regardless of her breast size? The guys that fall for you (and they will!) will have already been "pre-sorted" because none of them will be after you simply for your breasts! They will fall for you because you are a great person to be with! And not only that....do you really want a guy who constantly wants to be in your shirt all the time???? So, you do have advantages! Trust me! Yes guys make a big deal over the big breasted women. But they pay a price for that! Because relationships are built on companionship, not breast size. And I'm certain that most of the guys that land the big breasted women realize they've been cought in their own web of deception. When the fascination of big breasts wears off, what are they left with? They better hope they have companionship! That's what lasts forever.

I know big breasts probably give you girls a real sense of confidence which your sister probably has a lot of right now and you probably have very little. But that confidence is built on a shakey foundation (no pun intented!) Put your confidence where it belongs...into your character. Trust me. Women who place their confidence in their breasts will discover that their confidence will eventually sag in the long run (pun intended that time!)

Good luck with this! I really hope you find a way to not obsess yourself with this. Your happiness awaits you right on the other side of letting it go.

First of all, everyone is different so try not to judge yourself against others.
Secondly, I do know how you feel. I am 18 and have similar size boobs to you.
Dieting will definately affect your breasts as they are basically fat, I have grown a little bit there recently but so has to rest of me so it's just finding that balance.

Ultimately, be happy with yourself, confidence is far sexier and more attractive than huge boobs, to anyone who's not completely shallow anyway. And I know a fair few people who would kill to be 5'9" and as slim as you!

:)

Answer 6

dieting does affect your breast size, but not that much. it is likely just how you are genetically put together. you can get surgery done to get a bigger breast size, but you can't get anything done if you are short. I envy you for being so tall. That is the one thing I wish I could be-taller!
Be thankful you have some good attributes about yourself and be more thankful you can change the attributes you don't like due to modern day medicine and operations.

Answer 7

Please do NOT gain weight just to get breasts!

You are only almost 16, your breasts could grow into your 20's.

Give it time. I'm sure you will be a perfect size.

Eventually your sisters system will catch up with her and her weight will be distributed to her hips and everywhere else.

Answer 8

The size of your breasts is a superficial worry and irrelevant to who you are. Additionally, many men (myself included) prefer a woman with smaller breasts.

Answer 9

if it's not your chest, then it'll be something else... learn to accept things out of your control...it would be interesting to hear if you're sister is self conscious over some attribute that she imagines you have instead of her...then we'd see how trivial all this really is...

Answer 10

you're too skinny, at 5'9 you should be 145, that's probably why your boobs are so small... gain some weight!
