I'm sure they will be reduced in size when you lose the extra weight. Another thing to consider is that there is a surgical procedure for male breast reduction in case you are not satisfied with weight loss alone.

I'm afraid that I haven't looked into the cost yet. I'm assuming that it might be in the multi-thousand dollar range, and I don't know if insurance would cover it. The key word that you should search on is "Gynecomastia treatment" and that should get you to places that will help you.
