What To Do About Hanging Skin?



Recommended Posts

Hello to all, I'm new on here but not to weight loss and surgery as I had mine in 2005 and I have lost about 400lbs. I'm a Certified Personal Trainer and Wellness Coach as well as a Life Coach too. I see this site as a great connector to people and I have found that if you like to lose the excess skin without surgery under arms there's a few ways to do this. Also on the Belly and thighs there's some nice workouts that I do with people too. I'm on Facebook book if you like to friend me and also conect through here.

Duck tape - duck tape solves everything....

What trainin does a life coach entail? I have found myself wondering if I should not be in a more one-on one role re:career - but not a mortician (I have a degree in Mortuary Science).

Niahri,

We have the same doctor! I think we chose a great place! Btw, I live in Dayton but I'm from the west side of Cincy and stayed with my parents after surgery, which is why I chose Dr. Curry.

Yes! I love Dr. Curry. I started my weight loss journey with him and his office in early 2011 doing the Adipex. They are awesome. How have things gone for you since surgery?

So what advice for us old guys as I know when the weight comes off there will be lots. The younger ones have a better chance because it will snap back easier. Us ye ole dogs not so much.

Hey everyone!

Also from Cincinnati, I was sleeved at Good Samaritan, by Dr. Kerlakian on June 4th. Absolutely the best decision I have ever made in my life!

Anthony, I am very concerned about my upper arms, belly & inner thighs especially because of my age. My surgery is October 26th. I've been practicing yoga 2 to 3 times weekly for almost 2 years & I walk 3 to 4 days a week. I'm sure I'll need to join a gym, but I haven't worked out with weights in 18 years and in feeling very intimidated. I'd love to learn what I can do to prevent any sagging skin. I will look for you on FB. Thanks for your post.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
