Iv'e Heard Starving Yourself Can Result It Reduction In Breast Size ?

Answer 1

Any kind of weight loss can do that because
there is a lot of fatty tissue in a ladys breast.

Answer 2

Losing weight by any method often results in breast size reduction, because breasts are primarily full of fat...I went up to a "D" cup when I was over 200 lbs, and down to a "B" cup when I'm at my desired range of 135 - 145.

Some women, who are large breasted before they gain weight, won't see the drastic change that smaller breasted women seem to have...and some women who gain a LOT of weight (like my Mom for example) don't see much change in their breast size (hers never get real big, even when she's quite fat).

Answer 3

When you eat, your body stores its energy in things like fatty tissue. Thousands and thousands of years ago, when humans were mainly hunters and gatherers, the human body would prepare itself for long periods of time without food, hence the reason for storage. When you do not eat anything (such as starving yourself), your body will ultimately start "eating" itself: by using the stored energy (fat). Fat is pocketed throughout the body, and not everyone loses it from the same area first. However, if you do not eat, your body will continue to deplete the saved up energy sources. If they are not replenished (due to eating again), your body will start to break down muscular tissue as its source for energy.
Think about those Australian twins who were anorexic/bulemic. They got so thin that they had no energy and physically could not do the things they used to do. Their bodies were in 'emergency mode', depleting their muscular tissue.
Bottom line: don't starve yourself. It is unhealthy, and can lead to a myriad of health problems down the road. If you want to lose weight, you have got to burn more calories than you take in, plain and simple.
If starving yourself is something you are currently doing or are considering doing, please see a counselor, so that you can work through whatever issues are prompting this. Please.

Answer 4

Any significant weight loss can result in reduction of breast size. Boobs are just fatty tissues. Ever seen a female body builder? They've got no fat, hence they have no NATURAL breasts.
Some women are blessed w/genes that directs all fatty deposits to their chest so they can naturally have small waists and large breasts, but I know for me personally? When I lose weight my boobs are the first place I see a differece. :-(

Answer 5

Starving yourself is also a way to make your digestive system shut down. So when you wise up and start eating, you can't tolerate normal foods. You'll spend a lifetime with digestive problems, everything will make you sick.
It's not worth it, I was anorexic and have been eating for 10 years. I STILL suffer on a daily basis.
Respect your body, you have to live in it your entire life, you know?

Answer 6

Most likely. Breasts are just fatty tissue...so if you starve yourself it's likely that some of that would go away. I wouldn't recommend starving yourself if you're interested in losing weight though. It's not healthy at all.

Answer 7

Depends on..... Especially If you are overweight, yes, you will loose the body fat in the breasts as well as other areas. However, starving and depriving yourself of food and nutrients quickly will just result in gaining it back just as quickly and even more weight to boot. Your body will be craving more. Be sensible if you plan to diet, but don't starve yourself to try to loose it in the bust if that is your plan.

Answer 8

Starving yourself could KILL YOU!

Plus it depends on how much fatty versus dense tissue is in your breasts.

If you have more fatty tissue then you may lose weight by EATING RIGHT and working out.

If you have more dense tissue you won't lost any in the breast.

Don't starve yourself, that's bad!

Answer 9

Losing any amount of weight can have a chance at reducing breast size. When you starve yourself your body will start eating away at muscle as well.

Answer 10

Losing weight in general can reduce breast size because, after all, breasts are just fatty tissue. I wouldn't recommend that anyone starve themselves to lose weight or reduce their bust size, though. If you want to reduce your size, try focusing on doing pec exercises while working out.

Answer 11

Well breast tissue is made up of alot of fat. So if you loose weight most likely your boobs with decrease in size. When I diet and loose weight my boobs shrink..which sucks! But why would you want to starve yourself? that's really bad for your body. do it the healthy way! Starving yourself is for the weak.
