So I bought my very first bikini yesterday! My skin on my stomach is a little saggy so I'm nervous to wear it but I'll work up the courage one day! This is a total NSV!

You lol AMAZZZZING !! What did you go for ? bypass or sleeve ?

Thanks!! I had the sleeve! Best decision I ever made!

That is AWESOME!!!!!

My stats are close to yours...I have about 10lbs to get to where you are...but sadly my loose skin is much worse (an age thing!).

If I looked like that I would be wearing the bikini around town, LOL! You should wear it!!!!!

<p>Wow, great results? Can I ask how tall you are? Also maybe your age? Your loose skin situation is practically non-existent, and even though I know it's futile, I keep trying to figure out what I can roughly expect...</p>

Thank you! I'm about 5'6" and I'm 23. My loose skin isn't as bad others but I definitely notice it: but I'd rather have loose skin than skin filled with fat. Have you had surgery yet?

Nope, I'm getting cut on Wednesday! I'm so excited/nervous! I'm 5'7". My starting weight is a wee bit lower, but I'm also a couple years older than you (27), so maybe it will even out. I'd be over the moon for results like yours, so fingers are tightly crossed! And again, congrats on your success!

Thanks everyone for your encouragement! I feel way more confident to wear it now!
