How bad was yours? Any of you have before and after pictures you could share?

Any tips on reducing loose skin on arms?

Mine were HUGE! TRUCKER ARMS for sure!

They look waaaaaay better than they use to. I even wear sleeveless now sniff, sniff. The weight loss really did it and now work out consistently and they have gotten better. Don't get me wrong, still have a lot of loose skin, but again waaaay better.

Hate my arms

My bmi is 34.5, but my arms have loose skin from the YoYo dieting. I have a feeling they r really going to be bad after wls!

Any alternatives other than surgery that leaves that long ugly scar??

It might tighten up a little bit with time... and you can add some "good" bulk by building up muscles. But, honestly, I believe surgery is the only way to really remove a lot of extra skin. Or... just wear 3/4 sleeve shirts like I do. (Even in the hot summer - UG!)

I am seriously considering having the old bat-wings removed surgically. My arms definitely look better with extra skin than they did with lots of extra fat, but I'm still very self-conscious about them.

I dont have pics sorry but I need the brachioplasty (surgery) each arm has about7-10 inces of loose skin- my docs think it is at least 5-15 lbs that I will/would loose- just saving money at this time for the procedure- then I will have before and after pics....

My arms don't really bother me- they bother others though- I am not afraid to go sleeveless or tank top etc... I am comfortable in my skin-
