Okay, so I am very pleased with my weight loss thus far, and so excited about this journey. However, I am super bummed about this new phenomenon of adult acne!! I have never had problem skin, and my beautiful skin was one of my most prevalent and frequent compliments from others. However, now it seemed I have developed acne! It is mean acne too, resistant to everything I have tried. It is mostly concentrated on my forehead with a few stray bumps on my cheeks and chin. I know that sometimes that body expresses its struggle with adjusting to the new sleeve in many different ways, but I have not seen any posts on here about this. Am I alone? How long will this last? I didn't wanna go from looking like a cupcake to a crunch bar! Nobody warned me about this and I am totally blindsided. HELP!!!

OMG! Yes, I now have acne like you've never seen before. I have never-and i mean never had acne in my entire life as a teen, or even in pregnancy my face was so clear and smooth. Now, i have a new zit everyday i wake up! it's bad! and gross..... i thought it was the oils in the nuts i was eating but cut that out and changed diet all around and i still have them..let me know if you find anything that helps...maybe its just our bodies adjusting???? not sure but I feel ya girl!

Add me into the adult acne circle! I also never had acne before, even through 4 pregnacies. Now, however, my face is breaking out like nobody's business. It's mainly on my cheeks, but it's very frustrating. I had heard that when you lose a lot of weight at a fast pace, the fat cells release extra hormones in your body and that could cause acne. I guess we're living proof that this is true?

I am in the same boat. The first few months after sugery, everyone keep telling me how good my skin looked and that I had a glow. Now, I have acne on my forehead and cheeks. The acne on my cheeks hurt and I hate it. I hope this will be over soon.

Same here:(. I think it may have something to do with the estrogen that is released during fat breakdown. I will take acne over weighing 300 lbs any day!

ACNE HERE TOO.. but like above. I will take it over 300lbs : /
