I went to Kohl's today and was surprised at the big selection of good Shapewear. Expensive shareware upto 60% off! I purchased two camisoles at $18.00 each!

I ran my first 5k this December and wore under armor compression running tights/pants for cold weather (it was 30 degrees..eek) along with under armor top that compresses too.

I found that both Nike and Under Armor running gear in the compression styles really is enough, even with the excess skin. They are a bit expensive, but I felt it was worth it (depending on budget). Its actually what I'm wearing in my profile photo :)

I did have a good bit of loose skin all over.. Went to a consult for removing but it was just to costly. Then I started doing bodywraps faithfully once a week and drinking lots of Water. Now I have just a little more to go. It detoxes and breaks down the fat cells making them smaller. I love them. www.45minutesandgone.com if you want to check them out.

I am a bit skeptic about it, but honestly I will try anything. I was actually going to start doing the wraps now to see if I can tell any difference at all. I notice my skin moving all over now from exercising. I still have a long way to go on the weight loss, but hey I will fight this tooth and nail if I have to!!!

Thanks for sharing :)

I didn't want to just tighten with clothes, I want to get rid of it that is why I chose the body wraps.

How well do the wraps work and what exactly is the process, how expensive, how often? My doctor sai there is nothing we can do about sagging skin so I am very curious.

They detox shrinking the fat cells making them smaller each time. I pay $15 a wrap. 4 pack is $59..I wrap a average of 3 times a month

Do you do them at home or go to a spa-type place?

Never skimp on running clothes. Compression tights will make your running experience so much more pleasurable. I don't have loose skin but I still need to be held tight to enjoy running.

      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!!
