Can loose skin be minimized



Recommended Posts

Bella omggggggg look at you you look great. I absolutely cannot wait to get sleeved and began the journey to change my life. I feel mentally and physically ready. My knees kill me with exercise and long days when I'm on my feet for extended periods the bottom of my feet burn and hurt so bad. You look great kudos to you! I will look up the bio oil. Thanks girly!

Hey CC,

My knees were really bad too!! I'm a little worried about them actually as I think the years of being overweight have taken their toll...one makes a loud clicking grinding noise whenever I walk up stairs and the older one has Fluid and is a bit achey...weird that the grinding one doesn't hurt lol it sounds like it should!! My nutritionist has told me that the Multivitamins can help with the joints but I'm hopeless with them plus I swear they make me ill :-/ I normally taken them every other day or so...

Thanks for the compliments and I'm excited for you!! When's the big day??

This skin brushing thing sounds good - I'm going to look it up and maybe use it to apply my bio oil :-D

And if it helps at all, I've seen the brushes at TJ Maxx and Marshall's as well for pretty cheap if you're not one to order offline.

We had a plastic surgeon come speak to our support group & he said that nothing really helps it. You can only tone so much but not enough to make a difference. Removing the excess skin seems to be the only answer & many Dr's won't do it until you have stabilized your weight for 1 year.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
