Wow! Really cool to see this for me right now. I am 5'1", and only on beginning (again, for the umpteenth time) my weight loss and exercise.) Highest was 1 week ago at 179 lbs and it scared the daylights out of me. Lose skin is a concern of mine. Seeing this gives me motivation and hope. thanks!0

You're my hero. Saving this so I can look at it when I am worrying about loose skin as I continue to get to a healthy weight.

I was pregnant back to back and had stretch marks with the second (the girl, of course, gave me stretch marks - ha!) and 4 years later my skin is still tightening up and the stretch marks are still fading. It just takes time. I had a hernia repaired so I have a scar now too. I always joke that I wish the the camera technology had not improved so much just in time for my belly to look exactly how it looks in photos. I'd look like Gisele if we had old camera technology still0

Bravo for posting this message and your personal pictures. This was just the boost I needed to my mindset today. I am on my way down in weight and have already lost 63.5 pounds from my heaviest weight. I am a work in progress, I still have a long way to go. But I have to learn to live in my skin, all of it. It is about being healthier, more active and eating to live, not living to eat.
Thank you for the reminder that battle scars come in different shapes and sizes. Loose skin for me will be a battle scar! Scars heal...0 -

I too struggled with the thoughts of loose skin when I first started to lose weight. Right now, I have extra skin just about every where, but I know some of it will go away. Now I much rather have a bit of loose skin over extra weight.
Awesome progress and thank you so much for sharing. :flowerforyou:0 -
Thank You... over the course of the past 4 years I have lost 87 lbs, gone throught two neck surgeries and have saggy skin...Oh well it is still better than the unhealthy me...0

Thank you so much for sharing this! I've evened off for about three weeks at just above my goal weight and noticed the skin shrinking. You give me hope!0
