Well something has to give right? lol.... I am finding that since I have lost almost 20lbs my hands are looking kinda wrinkly and old these days.

Has anyone else noticed this? Is there anything I can do to firm up the skin? Looks odd as I don't really have a wrinkle anywhere else on my body!! (yet. knock on wood lol)

    I think mine is a combo of weight loss and the early signs of aging, but I've lost enough fat in my fingers/hands that everyday there is a very real possibility that my size 6 & 3/4 $6,800 (uninsured) diamond engagement ring is going to slip off my probably size 5 & 3/4 finger to never been seen again :(

    Funny! I was just noticing that the other day. And although I'm losing my extra chins, the one left is awful wrinkly :(

    I noticed on my face wrinlkes started to pop up, but my mother told me to eat eggs that their a protein in there that frims up the skin, Who knows, but I think it worked my face is much nicer and my pores shrunk. Oh drink lots of water.

    I'm thinking the skin on the tummy wrinkley thing is part of life. Much better than fat though. It reminds us to hold our stomachs in tight.. especially when wearing a bikini and makes us keep our cover-ups on when in a sitting position. But laying out, and standing up.....hey, we look fabulous!! Be so proud of your weight loss!

    I am paranoid about my wedding rings all the time too. Because of the setting that I have and my insanely tiny fingers they can't even resize the rings smaller. Someone told me to use fishing line (???) but I don't know how comfortable that would be~! lol
