Large breasted women aren't necessarily overweight.
According to "Science Daily" as of July 2010, there is no acceptable gold standard to measure breast density. Breast density has a direct correlation to the weight of a breast, both adipose, or fat, tissue and glandular tissue. That hasn't stopped thousands of women from taking the problem and finding a suitable method to weigh their breasts. A woman's cup size is a good indicator of fat-tissue in the breast. Besides glandular tissue, fat is what comprises a woman's breast. Weighing a breast is a significant way to access the percentage of fat tissue.
Instructions
1. Remove clothing from the waist up and slip into a robe. Set the kitchen scale on top of a tall counter, bar or shelf that is past waist height. Use a piece of plastic and cover the kitchen scale. Set the kitchen scale to zero. Test the scale for accuracy by placing the 5 lb. weight and viewing the results. Place a stand up mirror so the numbers on the digital scale will be easily seen when weighing the breast. Use the left side of the counter for the mirror, if weighing the right breast.
2. Remove the robe and place the breast on the scale up to the seam where the breast and chest meet under the breast. Weighing the full breast will give the most accurate result. Bend the knees to stay level with the scale as not to press any additional weight onto the scale. Look into the mirror and locate the digital number. Remove the breast from the scale and write down the number on the piece of paper. Repeat this process a total of three times. Add all three numbers, then divide by three to get the mean average.
3. An alternative way to measure the weight of the breast is by immersing the breast into a bowl of water. To do this, first weigh a baking tray with tall sides on the kitchen scale and write down the results. Put the baking tray on the counter and fill a large bowl with warm water to the top. Place the bowl in the middle of the tray and sink the breast completely, while allowing the water to overflow into the tray. When the tray is weighed with the water, write down the number. Now subtract the weight of the tray from the second number to get the weight of the breast. A liter is equal to 1 kg. If the breast has displaced this much water --1 liter, you are approximately a C cup size.
