Hey MFPs,
I've been working on losing my weight for a while now and although I'm not at my goal, I'm at a place where I'm starting to gain some confidence. Unfortunately I'm one of those unlucky people that skin couldn't handle the stress of weight fluctuations and as a result I now have stretch marks and loose skin. The stretch marks and loose skin hinders me from wearing all the things I would like to; for example a bikini. I don't know if any of you are struggling or have struggled with this same issue but If you are/have, please share any advice or tips you've learned throughout your experience.
-Confidence and happiness is MY Ultimate goal.
