2.5 years out

I've been able to maintain between 134 to 139 for 1.5 years. I do have a lot of sagging skin on my inner thighs afraid to wear really short, shorts or a bathing suit because its visible. Received a quote for plastics in Mexico for a thigh lift for 2500 not a bad price. Anyone suffering from this and what's working for you?

Im presleeved but wanted to say that u look amazing and congrats on the maintenance!!! gr8j!!

My inner thighs are awful. i lost 157 since being sleeved... closer to 180 from my lifttime high weight so i guess I have skin for more then two people. Good news for me is that my calves and outer thighs are pretty okay.. but those inner thighs are horrid. i can wear longer shorts, I can even wear skirts above my knees without nylons. If I wear stockings/tights/nylons I can even wear short skirts.

As far as I know, plastics is the only solution to this problem. The thing to know is that inner thigh lifts are a bit painful and the results aren't as "solid" as torso surgeries like tummy tucks - meaning more problems with wound separation etc. It is potentially also a very visible scar.. but... I think worth it. My thighs are firm and well muscled... covered by crepy ugly skin that's gotta go!

Congrats to you for losing and maintaining so well! You must feel just great about that.
