There is another thread about bras being uncomfortable and being measured in various stores. Glad m&s suited you as they didn't suit me after being measured and being told different sizes

I've just bought two new bras from Debenhams. They offer a bra fitting service, but I couldn't find anyone to help. I just chose a few and tried them on. They are very comfortable and don't fall off my shoulders.

Having just been measured for, and bought, 3 new bras, dh and I have stopped drinking during the week. Guess where I've lost weight!

I was measured in M&S for a bra a couple of years ago, I was told I was a 34B, they tried about 6 but all had space for a sock or two in the cup, 34A cup was too small, 32B too tight. I left empty handed. I am now wearing training bras from Asda, very comfy and less than £5 for 2.

Only once in M & S and it was so uncomfortable I only wore it once. Well done on losing the weight and as long as you happy with the fit thats great. I'm a 38E and I hate it I'd love to be a 36C my perfect size if only grin

Just wondering how often fellow GNs get measured for a bra? Having lost nearly 2 stone & realising my admittedly aging bras didn't really do the job any more, I went into M&S for a proper fitting. It took ages but the final, extremely comfortable result was worth it. However, it was quite a shock to find out I'd gone from a 38C to a 36DD ...DH is thrilled..!!
