I'm really worried about sagging skin or if I look to skinny. Any suggestions on sagging skin workouts? I'm 203 and have 50lbs to lose. I'm compilation get having the surgery in September or October.

JUSTWANT2SMILE got a reaction from JennyJennJen in Hello this is me... Taking my life back 10/20/16....
Heading back home. Excited for my new life. I met wonderful sleeve buddies and I'm so glad I choose OCC. My husband wasn't able to come, so he keeps asking my how I'm feeling. Am I in pain? Am I walking bent over ? And I keep telling him know!! My only complaint is the gas. No pain, just gas in my chest periodically. I'm typing this note, waiting at the terminal at San Diego Airport! He too was nervous about me going to Mexico, if your on the fence, Don't be! It's safe!! Nothing like what you see on t.v. The Marriott Tijuana it beautiful and the staff wait on you hand and foot. I'm Sleeved!! I did it and you can to!!
Below are pics day of surgery hotel room etc.

Hello this is me...
The one always hiding behind someone in pictures. The one always taking pictures but not wanting to be in the frame. The one not liking the reflection in the mirror. The one with high blood pressure, sleep apnea, pre diabetes , TMJ and living in constant pain. Always up in weight and rarely down. I've tried it all, HCG, phentermine, topamax, Belviq, Jenny, Seattle, Medifast,WW just to name a few, nothing worked for long. This new normal of yo-yo dieting weight loss then more gain was not normal to me.
So,I'm taking my life back in 3 days. I Will be in the pictures and no longer afraid of how it turns out. I will be healthy, and not live in pain. I'm nervous and I'm afraid, but I can't continue to live this way.
I'm choosing to self pay, because my Bmi is not enough to get approved by insurance in the US.
As I embark on this journey, I will update with pictures and how Things are progressing.
