Loose Skin? How soon did you notice loose skin?

I'm 10 weeks post op (down 45 lbs) and have started to notice that my breasts have relocated to a new position (you can assume that they haven't moved up my chest). I have also noticed that I have a little sagging in my arms and my belly looks like it did just after giving birth (deflated balloon). How soon after having surgery did you notice loose skin?

Here's mine after 110lbs lost and post baby. Pretty minimal on stomach - wee bit on arms and thighs but still tightening up. Boobs whole other story! But I think thats from breastfeeding more than anything.

Holy crap I want to be you. I see nothing!

Amazing! I can only hope that I'm as fortunate as you. So far, I've only lost 40lbs and I don't have much sagging going on but I have 62 lbs to reach my goal.
