any old big weight losers-wrinkle issue

jbootman

OK, I know I am old, 63,

and for my whole life I have been fat,

so now I have lost more than 75 pounds, and there is no going back,

I am pain free, I hope my insides are healthier,

and I am not all that vain, but, I now look like my grandmother,

having let the air out of the old balloon, the skin is wrinkled,

at my top weight my skin looked like a pointed object might do some horrific damage, bursting my whole self onto the walls,

I can deal with the arms, flap, flap, flap and the rest of the old bod because I wear lots of clothing, not wishing to publicize my flesh,

however the face, oh the face, so the question is---will I tighten up?

please reply if you have been very fat and are old and dealt with this issue, your solutions, timeframes etc, thanks

This isn't helpful, but I love the way you write!

Glad I'm not the only one who worries about this! (I am "only" lol 46 and in the midst of losing 50 lbs.)

My plan is to try every damn tightening and firming cream out there. (Next up, Origins Plantscription Anti-Aging Serum.) If that doesn't work, I guess I better start saving up for some laser work. Or maybe by the end of my weight-loss journey I will feel so damn good that I just won't give a flying fig about my saggy, wrinkly face and neck! (Small price to pay for health and vitality, right?) Personally, I'm hoping for a combination of options one and three...

And if I find a good cream I'll be sure to share the info!

thank you for the kind words and the sympathy,

I have got to say that I am doing cream on face thingy,

had my first facial 2 weeks ago, and wow what a difference, got some samples of what the salon offers, not bad,

but since then have lost another 3 pounds and by evening, omg,

my children have offered to do a homeschool(what we did a thousand years ago when they were young) facelift, they will hold me up by my ponytail and use a very tight rubberband :laugh:

well if my dear husband loved me fat I would imagine he will love me wrinkly, just do not want to frighten the children,

eating tomatoes for dinner, rather have chocolate
