Hi, I've been wondering about the lower stomach and what I can expect with weight loss. What's been your experience? Does it hang or tighten up?

Everyone will be different. It depends on age, amt of weight loss and your skin elasticity.

Well, I'm 41 years old and have been fat since birth. I've had a large lower stomach since I can remember and I've had a pannus from age 11. I've lost 100 pounds and I'm half way through my journey.. My lower stomach is hanging as low as before but it's just more deflated now. and it's coming up in the center.. so now it basically looks like two flat boobs.. SOOOO ATTRACTIVE! But I guess the good news is it's not hanging LOWER than before!

My ARMS are a different story.. They used to be fat, but at least they were cylindrical... now I've got bingo wings! GRRRRRRRR. Honestly, I'd rather have the fatter arms but we can't pick and choose.. Guess I'll be getting those babies chopped off when I go for plastics on my tummy!

I am having the same problem... My stomach is where I carried most my weight and now in the center it's like the great divide, lol. Not losing as much there as I would like but losing none the less. 97 pounds since surgery in September and 117 since highest.

Thanks all for your honesty. My stomach is mt problem area so I'm trying to psych myself for what to expect.
