CONGRATS ON UR WEIGHT LOSS. you are an incredible woman... loose skin is nothing... Ur life and health are much more important and thanku so much for being so honest....0

Thank you so much for showing your pictures, that is very brave.
I to have lost 189lbs and need to still lose another 40 more..and I know the skin is a major concern for me.
My lower belly, legs and arms and side boobs are the biggest concerns for me..as I to carried everywhere.
I don't know how I will be able to pay for the surgery as I'm still paying for my band (gastric banding)
But I will figure it out. I knew going in that my body won't be bikini ready for along time if ever. But I do want a flat lower belly...right now the panis is very big and embarrassing and I really worry about it in terms of dating and relationships as I've already had one man reject me because of it (stupid man I know lol). Thanks for sharing your story it really helps0 -
you should be very very proud of yourself thank you for sharing.its great to have a wonderful man by your side0

Thank u sooo much for posting! This is a major concern for me. I am 60lbs away from a healthy weight for my body and my worst fears have been coming true. I didn't have gastric bypass to lose my weight, I've done it all natural, but im starting to see alot of loose skin. I really want the surgery once im at goal, especially for the boobs, but im already about to file bankruptcy and don't know how id ever qualify. I was enjoying running, but now the sound my stomach sounds flapping around disgusts me and can't run anymore. I really appreciate ur posting cuz it better prepares me for what to expect...I've been waiting for the day where I could see my bellybutton, but I probably never will. I carry most of my excess weight in my tummy but other concerns are my inner thighs and boobs where my skin looks all wrinkly all the sudden and is almost like puckering up.0
-
Thanks for that. I have probably lost about 120 pounds and have not suffered excess skin on my top half (apart from my arms and but on my pooch) but my thighs are a different story. So glad that someone has the courage to post. Thank you0

Just look at the two of you...you are the "poster people" for taking care of yourself and living a much longer, healthier, happier life. It's so neat that you've done this together. Also, kudos to you for the breat implants and other surgeries....you are worth every penny and that's a great reward for all your hard work. I'm planning to de-sag the upper half when I hit goal too....don't care how big of a loan it might take!!! Many blessings to both of you!0
-
It takes a lot of courage to post those pictures.
Thank you for doing that.
I hope that people are encouraged by your honesty and also that they recognize that loose skin is a small price to pay for good health.
Great job getting healthy, by the way. You've done a fabulous job!
My darling friend Cory said it perfectly! Ditto to each and every thing she said!!!0 -
