How much weight did you lose? 84 so far with a lot more to go!

How fast did you lose your weight? Sometimes it drips off me, others it feels like it's going to hang on forever! Was banded late July 2013.

If you are female and didn't have cosmetic surgery, are you comfortable enough to go to the beach in a bikini? PFFFFT. lol

How much loose skin do you have? My arms are going to be really bad, I can already tell. I'm not shocked though, I've always had huge arms anyway. If I ever get up the nerve and money in the future to have plastics, my arms will def be the first to go. I'm just now starting to see signs on my stomach of how much skin there's going to be, I think it will be relatively substantial but possibly not so much that I will feel like I absolutely have to have a Tummy Tuck to go on. I'm worried to see how my thighs and legs will end up. I've always had tree trunks for legs. I can't even visually imagine what they will look like if the fat is ever gone off of them.

If you are female and didn't have cosmeticr surgery, are you comfortable enough to go to the beach in a bikini? NEVER! Bikini days were over after carrying twins full term followed a few years later by a 10 1/2 pound baby boy! Lol

How much loose skin do you have? I have saggy belly, saggy arms, saggy butt, saggy thighs, and totally deflated saggy, baggy boobs (went from a 46D to a 36B). My insurance might pay for my belly. I'd like to fix my breasts but it's not critical to my happiness.

If you are female and didn't have cosmetic surgery, are you comfortable enough to go to the beach in a bikini? I would say yes for the most part!!! My stomach is very slim and flat no extra skin! My problem area is my arms.. I have bat wings : (

How much loose skin do you have? I have somewhat moderate batwings on my arms and a little but of excess skin on my inner thighs.. But considering all I went through I'm please with the results!!! The only plastic surgery I may consider is my arms and inner thigh lift

How much loose skin do you have? Not as much as I had anticipated considering how much weight has come off. It's only starting to show now this last month

[enjoyinglife 313]

The first four questions you asked are answered by looking at my profile.

how fast have you lost your weight? I have averaged 4.5 pounds a week.

I would not be comfortable being seen without a t-shirt on.

I do not have a lot of loose skin. I do have those flabby bat wings.

[Lady VS 1,147]

I'm a 42 yr old lapband patient. I have lost a total of 90 lbs and almost 40 inches all over in two and a half to three yrs post op. I do have some loose skin but will not have reconstructive surgery to get rid of it and no, I will not be in a bikini but I do wear a two piece. Can't show my scars and port.

Very fast the first 3 months, and finally hit goal weight around 20 months post op. Have since gained about 15 pounds back.

If you are female and didn't have cosmeticr surgery, are you comfortable enough to go to the beach in a bikini?

I don't qualify to answer this question, but I would say that I've had no cosmetic surgery "yes" anyway to the bikini. Seriously, I don't mind wearing just my swim trunks on the beach and have many times the past few summers.

How much loose skin do you have?

None
