What Is the Lowest My Wife Can Get Her Bodyfat % to be without Losing Her Boobs?

[Audacious1]

I guess there is no way around it. I went from a nice solid D to a puny B...i guess i could either be chunky and have nice big boobs, or be thin and cut and have to deal with my teeny ones. Maybe one day i'll get implants, but i am starting to get used to these.

Who cares what size her boobs are. All that matters is that she's happy with her body and healthy. I might suggest that at her height and weight she could prifitably add more muscle rather than lose more fat, and thus look doubly devastating!

what Gladiola meant was that it's obviously NOT NATURAL looking for a woman to be extremely thin, thus having a completely flat stomach, and have huge double D's and a perfect ass. It just doesn't work out that way naturally.

Yup - exactly!!! & somehow they have that flat tummy & tiny waist, but don't look emaciated with gaunt faces & poking out ribs. - it doesn't add up.

Boob job would be a good idea, but even so, it is possible that she still might have some 'pooch' unless she's in the SUPER LOW bf range - a range that simply might not be WORTH maintaining.

um, they look totally different! Besides not being 'chizled' & cut/ripped, Playboy girls also have round asses.

I'm with MS - she needs to be happy with her body. & IMO that means learning to accept a bit that she can pinch... a bit to pinch in the belly is part of the female body. Heck, even pros don't go around ripped to shreds year round, right?

I couldn't agree more. She lifts heavy enough to get more muscle but man she doesn't eat right and take in anywhere near the amount of protein she needs to repair muscle.

Get her on here - we'll fix her up!

LOL Maybe I should. God knows she won't listen to me about nutrition even though I am constantly studying about it. I guess it is because I am her husband and what wife listens to their husbands?

I COMPLETELY agree that fitness models work hard for their bodies. But to say Playmates sculp and fitness models work hard is a little stretch...

I've talked to a fitness model ( never will mention the name) and lipo was involved.. C'mon, they get breast implants do you think they wouldn't lipo a problem aread??

All the exercise in the world will not make up for poor diet. As she ages, she'll find it harder and harder to stay ahead of the fat tide unless she does something to add or at least KEEP the muscle mass she does have. I see it happen to women all the time. They might stay skinny, but they become skinny fat - granny arms and all.

I know all about the 'training hard but not eating right' routine, because I thought I could train around my bad diet. I could until my mid-30's, then the party was over. It's hard to take that step into better eating, but once I did, I found I could actually train less but get even BETTER results. Those people who say "diet is 80%" (or whatever the number) are right! She's shooting herself in the foot w/ her bad diet.

harder and harder to stay ahead of the fat tide

FAT TIDE!
Yup, all the exercise in the world doesn't make up for lousy diet.

I had heard this before, but I just reread the other day that we lose 1/2 a pound lean muscle mass every year after the age of 25 if we do nothing to stop it & that translates to a lowered BMR of 100 cals per day!!! So exactly as you said .... if you do nothing to stop the tide, you lose muscle & gain fat. You stay 'skinny' & get SKINNY FAT!

FitFossil - Good to see you around. I was just thinkin' about you yesterday - thought I hadn't seen a post from you lately (could just be I don't read all threads tho).

I lost 30lbs. went from a C to a very small A I wanted to continue my training and possibly (Lord willing) do some figure fitness within the next 2 yrs. I knew I would never get my boobs back. And a flat chest just doesn't go well w/ broad shoulders and wids hips.
I'm not saying go out and get'er a set of DD's. You can be modest with breast implants just find a good Dr. It all depends on her shape. And make sure It's what SHE wants.
