I was nervous about summer coming! But.....

  • Popular Post

With the amount of weight I have lost I do have some lose skin. But it is really only in my arms, my stomach does not look bad. At first I nervous about summer and going to the beach and then I started to think about it. I have lost 174lbs who cares if my skin is hanging! It shows that I worked my butt off to get where I am at! If someone doesnt like my arms they dont have to look and if they are looking I am just going to tell them...thats what it looks like to lose a whole person!!!

I am so happy with where I am at right now and I am glad I sat back and thought about it! I hope everyone else has the same way of thinking, we have came a long way and who cares if you have some sagging skin it just shows the dedication we have to get where we are at=)

Congrats on your awesome loss! Perfectly said!

Ivyh, thanks for posting this, it's something I need to remember. Congratulations on your fantastic achievement!

Like I told my best friend.. I have lose skin and a small apron but I am not planning to be a swimsuit model anytime soon. I am healthier and happier than I have been for 20 years or more. I will be able to wear shorts and cute shirts and yes even a bathing suit but better yet I will be able to swim with my granddaughters and play games with them in the pool without running out of breath or energy. Have a great Summer everyone. ONward and Upward.

Well said everybody!!
