Scared of saggy skin

[tsreed806 0]

Yes, its a realistic worry Kimmerjz29! After going through this process I want to feel comfortable. Although I am fat I am not saggy and as far as feeling good about myself, that will be very hard for me. It's important to have a realistic take and be able to have insight that will help you handle the skin such as plastic surgery or preventives that may of worked for others.

Exactly that what the point I was trying to share and the input I was lookjg for just some tips on how people might have been able

To tone or to have less that's all I am looking for

I don't know if it's possible to "tone" stretched out skin. You can build muscle to fill some of it out.

If you lose the weight that you want to lose, are you afraid you won't have the money for plastics down the road? Honestly, that is the only thing that is going to fix it. It's expensive and painful.

There are so many more benefits to losing the extra weight. Besides being so much healthier, I am so much happier in all areas of my life. I am going to be 62 in October and people tell me all the time that I look like I am in my 40's. whatever. I love being able to buy new clothes and look good in them and I really don't care what I look like naked. My man doesn't care either.

After 33 years of marriage, it's safe to assume my hubby loves me for being me, too! :-)

I know he will always love me for me it's how I'm going

To feel about myself,I know that losing the weight is way way better for me and this really shouldn't be a huge worry but it is for me because I fear that I will just still not feel comfortable with myself even after making this huge change!!! But I know I'll be happier just have to see how everything goes

Hi everyone...I am in the very beginning stages of finding out more info about gastric sleeve surgery!! I meet with all the docs on sept 8th for my very first visit!! I have a huge concern about saggy skin, I'm 5'3 and 240lbs, does anyone find that going to the gym and toning usually helps with this problem? I know you most likely are going to have it in places no matter what since u lose so much weight so quickly, but anyone know any ideas of how to avoid having it as much as u can?? Thanks

This girl made me feel better about saggy skin
