I am guessing you are losing fat and your skin is loosening with the absence, which made your body feel more solid before. Over time and with exercise, some of the skin may shrink, but many people have to have it removed surgically once their weight loss is complete.

So is mine, making me very depressed. How did I get this fat? I am already looking into plastic surgery.

The fat isn't softer, you feel softer cause the there is less fat pushing on your skin. My stomach used to be big and round and tight feeling. Now it's semi flat and feels like Jello. Lol. It does improve. I have noticed my skin improve and shrink back a lot in the last 2 months. (I'm almost 8 months post op)

you can look at my before and afters and see how solid my belly was before surgery and now how dimpled it is after. it has gotten better with exercise though. I have noticed one improvement with my skin.... I used to have little pimple like dots all over my arms and legs.....those are completly gone now, and my skin feels so smooth and soft. I love that.

Yeah, I'm pretty jiggly now. I'm hoping as a tone with exercise some will go away. I will always have the c-section belly though to some extent. I'm 46 BTW.

I feel the "jiggly" too.. I think it is normal- Your body will be deplete of water and some toxins that are stored the more weight you loose. Plus the more weight you loose the more you will want to look at your body and see it's changes...
