Chin flab :(



Recommended Posts

The good news is I lost my double (maybe triple) chin. The bad news is, my skin didn't get the message! Has anyone had any luck tightening up that area with exercise and/or creams?

Last fall I watched a few "facial toning" videos on youtube and started them along with increasing my workouts on my total gym. Can't say how good they worked because I injured my trap muscle and had to stop darn near everything for over a month while my chiro tried to get me straightened back up. I've been self conscious over my chins ( I call them waddles) since forever and have found that they lesson when I cut out most carbs, and moisturize faithfully. I HOPE my skin "get's the message" after my upcoming surgery and weight loss, otherwise I think I'll try one of those saran body wraps around my head/neck. Can't hurt, right?

I'm hoping for some kind of positive outcome to this as well. It's nice to have lost the weight int face but the neck area doesn't look so good.

Someone else mentioned YouTube videos to me also. I am going to have to check that out. Eventually it is going to be too warm for turtlenecks!

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?
