I hate my arms. I feel like no matter how much weight I lose the stretch marks and sagging that I have on the inside of my arms, will never go away. I know there's so answer for stretch marks, but is there anyone who felt that same way but now feels different? If so, what exercises did you do? Do you think Water intake really does make a difference? Thanks!

I looked up some of the exercises on Youtube, thanks!

haha I would like to do it without surgery (haha-don't we all) but hey if I get to goal and it's still an issue then I may have no choice!

My trainer has me do all kinds of arm exercises and I've lost inches, but it will never help with the sagging. I plan to have them done if they don't improve by the time I get to my goal weight (if I can convince my future husband to let me!). The way I figure it, my arms can't really be hidden under clothes (not in the summer anyway) and I'd rather show them off. I didn't lose all this weight to keep hiding in my clothes!

I want to convince my husband of this as well.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
