    yeah, I can live with it if it happens. I just want to be healthy.

    With that kind of attitude, no doubt you will do great!!

    That is the most important thing, don't let the fear of loose skin hold you back from getting healthy. Words cannot even begin to explain how much better you will feel not carrying around that extra weight all day every day. It really makes a huge difference :smile:

    THIS.
    I'm down 130 pounds and I've been maintaining for almost three years. My body is not perfect; whose is? I'd like to have tighter thighs and arms and no loose skin on my stomach. But I don't have that, and I'm not willing to pay and endure surgery, so my best option is to accept that this is my *healthy* body and acknowledge that I feel and look so much better than before.

    (PS: I lifted heavy, ate tons of protein, drank water, and ate healthy food while losing. Guess what? still loose skin. Whether you have it will depend on genetics and how long you were overweight primarily).
