Hey, since you're one of those lucky ones without a big problem with saggy skin. And there was this other girl that don't have that much a problem with loose skin. I became more interested to know what kind of exercise you're doing, perhaps it has something to do with it. Like if it's running, then you're constantly "bumping" the excess skin as you run, but like swimming, maybe a better choice to "shape up" ?? :biggrin:

Anyone in their mid 20s or early 30s that managed to deal with excess skin without plastic surgery? :smile2: I'm in Canada, and everything seems more expensive here, and Mexico is out of the question now with the SWINE FLU going around. :biggrin: I'm in my early 20s, plan to lose 100-120lbs in 12-15months. Is it even possible to not have loose skin? 12-15 months to lose 100-120lbs shouldn't consider as "quick" right? I gradually went from normal to OB in 4 years.. Any chance of not getting PS? Sigh

I have some questions relating to alcohol AND cigarettes. I don't want to sound alcoholic, but one of my ways of releasing stress is a night out drinking chatting with friends. I don't drink beer, but I drink coolers, cocktails or shooters. Coolers like Bicardi pineapple... Can I have like 3 coolers in one night once a month or something? :smile2: I am an occasional smoker, smoke once/twice a day, or none a day. When I drink alcohol I tend to smoke more, but I'm going to limit my drinking and going out after being banded, so I'll only drink about once a month (if that's allowed). Do i have to quit smoking? Is 3 coolers one night "allowed"? Did anyone go through the same thing? :frown: I'm having consultation with my surgeon May 1st this friday :biggrin: If things go well, I'll be on Meditrim and get ready to get banded within the next 2, 3 weeks.
