Amen! Or waking up with my pj pants below my waist!

You know what I do at the beach and pool? I get shorts for Walmart and a cute tankini from target! They go from sizes 16w-28w in stores! No need to wear capris!!

Girl strut your bathing suit body! I'm a size 26 and I do! You worked so hard to get there so don't let anything make you think otherwise!! Enjoy vacation and everything it has to offer!! And I will wave my bat wings for you!!!

So many of these things I struggle with also!

I call my arm skin bat wings too!You are totally right. It is a small price to pay for your health! Thank you for your input!

I am new to this site and already love it. I work at an Urgent Care and was approached by a young woman who had this procedure done with amazing results. She told me her skin was very elastic and stretched back for the most part. I was wondering if any of you would like to comment on your situations with any excess skin you may have after surgery. Or any complcations for that matter!

I am new to this site and already feel very comforable. I have been dealing with being over weight my entire life. Diets work for me for a couple months and I fall off the wagon. I want to enjoy my life the way it is intended to be. At this point where I am at, it's hard to just go up my stairs without huffing and puffing. I don't like who I have become. All of those things mentioned, I deal with. 1. Flying and having to smoosh my son between my husband and I because I cannot fit into one seat. 2. Wanting to nap on my days off and gorge on fast food. 3. Not being able to play beer league softball with my husband becuase I am too out of shape to run to first base and not be embarrassed. 4. Swollen ankles all the time, and I am not pregnant! 5. Being a skip and a jump away from diabetes. 6. Knee pain 7. Having only two pairs of pants that fit me, and I sew them once a month to keep the together. They are in such bad shape. 8. My chins! 9. Chaffing between my legs when it is hot out. 10. Not being able to shop with my healthy friends at the mall because nothing fits me. 11. Crying when I look in the mirror at home because I dont't know how I got to this point in my life where I weigh so much, and not knowing how to change it.
