three or four years ago i went into a kind of depression. i gained thirty pounds in the span of july and august, my summer vacation at school. during that school season i gained about twenty pounds, so by the time june (literally) rolled around i had ballooned to 180 pounds: a fifty pound weight gain in just below a year.
awful, right? well, the next summer i finally let myself enter counseling and as i felt better, i shed the weight. i joined weight watchers with my mom and lost about twenty pounds before i decided to go on my own. i'm now about 148 pounds and i'm comfortable with myself, finally.
you would think that losing about thirty pounds would be awesome, wouldn't you?! wrong. don't get me wrong, i feel good about myself: i am so much happier than i was back then. but the problem is just this: my breasts absolutely disgust me. i can't even glance at myself naked in the mirror because it makes me so very uncomfortable. they don't just sag, they plummet and have absolutely no shape. bathing suit and bra shopping is a complete disaster, and having my boyfriend around is worse because i'm simply not comfortabe with seeing them myself, let alone others.
my thoughts were that severe weight gain/lose had to affect my body permanently somehow, but i was hoping it would have only stayed with stretch marks. my real question is: is there any way i could change/perk/boost my breasts? i don't necessarily want bigger breasts (i'm a D-cup as it is) but i don't want to live my life worrying about my lifeless boobs. i'm an outgoing seventeen year old, so i severely doubt it's age having an affect on me.. sigh. anything would be helpful.. please don't leave mean comments
ETA: it would also be very helpful if you could tell me something i could do without the use of machines, as i don't currently own a gym membership. thank you.
