    I read that it can take up to two years for your skin to fit to your new body... It's also important to keep hydrated, use Vitamin E oil, exfoliating skin daily will help promote circulation to the skin which is said to help as well! Just give it some time!

    I wasn't trying to be judgmental nor was i saying that I will never have any sweets ever again...I hope no one took it that way... I am just saying that this early on in the game its probably a good idea to try change our way of thinking! I was just trying to be encouraging!

    Well maybe that is to be expected! I had it checked again on Wednesday and my surgeon said it will scab up and fall off! I guess we just have to keep a close eye in it!
