I'm not sure if I've seen the term LDD before, but the TAS for minimum total drag will increase with an increase in weight, and the value of minimum drag will increase also. So, the curve will move up and to the right. However, I see no reason why the curve itself will retain the exact same shape. Perhaps some others have a comment on that.
