Has anyone found a product or non-surgerical procedure for firm skin when you have all this extra skin from losing weight?

Sorry, nothing really works except time and surgery. However, the younger you are the better it firms up over time.

Lotions etc. make your skin soft and look somewhat better, but it is not a long term fix. If anyone has a miracle lotion, I would love to see it.

Yes. I am doubtful that it can tighten the large areas of loose skin many of us have. I usually think of it for tightening "turkey neck". Consults are usually free, let us know what you find out.

Has anyone tried the ItWorks! Wraps? I have seen some really great result photos from friends who have had the sleeve/bypass/lapband. Do a search and find a distributor in your area!!

I did thermage on a cruise. I had 3 sessions and lost a ton of inches from Water. As soon as I rehydrated it came back.

I used the ITWorks wraps and gel for a while. It was great. Nothing is permanent until you get under the knife.

I have lots of wraps I never used I can sell to you at a super discounted rate if you want them.

I am no longer a distributor and I am not using them either so if you want to try them I would be happy to send them if you pay a little over shipping.

I'd be interested - I know they don't work long-term but for an evening out they'd help, right?

I love ItWorks wraps and can verify they work. I also buy the ItWorks greens, which are full of potassium and magnesium and great for digestion. I have the best and kindest distributor who always has time to answer my questions and I just place my order online and it comes to my door. I just ordered their hair, skin and nail Vitamins. Great company and you can't go wrong with the wraps! Here's the website I use to order if you want to check it out: kristins.myitworks.com

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
