BRAS
If you're looking for a bra on-line why not try Cups Intimates? This is one of my shops and we carry a large selection of sports bras from the best companies. We have regular bras also and hope to carry more in the near future.
FATS AND BREAST CANCER
I found this article on a site called News Target.com
It says a link was found between a high fat diet and breast cancer risk. Two points to keep in mind, the first is that they found it didn't matter what kind of fat it was, and second there is a question about whether it may not be the fat at all, that it could be some of the chemical preservatives that is put in meat. The article is worth the read.
High-fat Diet Linked to Increased Breast Cancer Risk
BRA SIZING
I have yet to find a way of measuring yourself for a properly fitted bra for the large breasted woman who is wearing the wrong size.
The directions are all the same no matter where you look. They instruct you to measure the rib cage just below the breast, and then measure the fullest part of the breast, which would be OK except for GRAVITY!
If mine stood straight out in front at attention this would be not problem, but how can you measure the fullest part wearing an ill fitted bra that doesn't support and breasts that hang down to your waist.
I guess it's easier to pretend woman shaped like us just don't exist when they are giving these incomplete and idiotic directions.
For the time being, I guess we just have to try them on, or leave them hanging!
SELF EXAM
I would just like to remind everyone, yes even you men, to examine your breasts for lumps. Many don't do it because they don't know what they're looking for.
That is why you should do frequent exams. You will get to know what they normally feel like , then if and when you should develop a lump you will be able to recognize it as not being there before.
Breast cancer is deadly, but can be treated, and sometimes cured. As you've heard many times before catching it early is the key. Good luck to you!
