My ass is melting

Mine too is gone. Pretty ironic since the booty is so in these days!

I used to have such a cute, round, perky butt :( after I got fat, I avoided looking in the mirror or having pictures taken at all costs. I'm sure it was hideous, but I guess I was expecting to have my old butt back after I lost weight. Apparently,.I'm gonna have to give it some help cause at this point, I ain't got enough back to hold my pants OR panties up

Fyi... last winter I was injured by a personal trainer who was trying to rebuild my ass. Turns out...plenty of guys are fine with a skinny ass girl!

Squats -- breathing squats -- squats with heavy weights ...

Word of caution: Squats can ruin your knees. I speak from considerable experience. With some of the world's best bodybuilding coaches. Still ruined.

I appreciate the warnings! Cowgirl - was your injury knee-related too?

I now call mine a back with a crack!!!!

OMG! So funny! I was shocked to see my booty disappearing. Really? I have 30 plus pounds to go. What in the world will I have left? And while I'm willing to fix my girls and my tummy, if I can afford it, my butt.......

Thank you all so much for the laugh today. Some of your responses were just hilarious! I don't have much of a bum right now, but to lose what I have could be quite disturbing.

post op a few months later +

even a year

your skin can/DOES tighten up a bit (like the song) :lol:

many people wait on having plastic surgery

they wait til the skin is tighter

being younger is one factor of your skin tightening

but for many, it definitely does firm up a bit :)

i am an a YOUNG fart of 60 :lol:

for me - i realized my tushy was gone (happened over time - just didn't notice :( )

in the same way, i realized my rear end was a little firmer :)

plenty of loose skin - but a little firmer

this can also happen other body areas

don't throw in the towel yet

many people wait awhile before having plastic surgery

since your skin might firm up

its better for mother nature to do its thing

in the long end - its worth the wait

warning warning

attempted analogy below

we built a house last year

big, long stone driveway

i would love to have it paved it immediately

we live in snow - harder to snow blow

but we are waiting a year til the house "settles"

then we will pave the driveway

thats the way you are supposed to to do "it"

its hard to wait, but its much better to do

just like plastic surgery, its worth the wait

"God Grant Me Patience,Just Hurry About It"

i am starting a movement to outlaw any loose skin

who is with me? ;)

after all is said and done

i would rather have some loose skin "hanging" around than all that blubber :D

good luck :)

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      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!!
