Hello All-

Newbie to the site...Well I've had my page for a few months now...but I've been more of a reader than a commenter. Ok so my question-I keep reading horror stories of sagging skin. I am AA 5'5 280 and 29. No Kids. My skin is tight. Is there anyone who's had the VS with the same stats as myself that can give me an ideal of how their skin reacted? Is their anything that can be done in advance to prevent or decrease the chance of sagging skin? Lastly I've been a big booty girl all my life. I became over weight late teens until now. My mother has hips and butt. Has any former big booty girls lost their lovely lady lump? LOL..Bcos I am sooo prepared to do my squats! Any feed back will be great thanks.

Everyone is different. Your age is on your side, as is the fact you haven't already stretched your skin with baby. I was lucky when I had babies that I only gained a few stretch marks and had no real sagging. When I lost a tonne of weight a few years ago I also was lucky that the skin sprang back into place. I'm now over 40 and all the yo-yo dieting will probably come and bite me on the butt. You will find that you retain your natural shape, but just be smaller. Once you have children it will be a different story. When I was younger I was a pear shape, big butt/hips, smaller on top. Once I had children my shape seemed to change and now I'm big chest/smaller bum - more hourglass. I know I'm never going to make supermodel stats, I just want to be in the best shape I can. So embrace your booty - and go to gym to make it a firm booty, not a flabby one! :-)
