Extra Skin

I am still pre-op. My surgery is in a week. One of my biggest concerns is the extra skin. Does anyone have any comments on this?

I'm worried about that too. My biggest concerns are my upper arms and my thighs. I hope and pray it won't be an enormous amount of hanging skin.

I had extra skin from my 2nd pregnancy. Gained 100 lbs and lost it all. I had extra skin and if I wore a very tight shirt you could see that my belly was a little wrinkled. There were definitely things I couldn't wear but I was happy with my body and you will be too. You will learn that things like wrap tops, rouching, and other styles are more flattering. My ex didn't mind it. And after we broke I dated and the boyfriends I had over the years didn't mind either. it's not that bad.

I had gastric bypass 2 1/2 years ago I lost 100lbs. My arms are not too bad. My thighs are okay as well. You might want to see of you insurance will cover a tummy tuck here in California even medi-Cal covers it. I have private insurance and mine covered the bottom I got care credit and paid $1700 for the top.
