You look awesome. My biggest fear is my skin won't go back but it looks like yours did. But I am 49. You should be pretty proud of yourself.is there anything special you can tell me. I haven't for my apt yet I have to meet with the nutrionist and nurse and phycolagist.

Looking good! You hardly have any loose skin!

AWESOME!!! Looking great, @mnmist!!!

You look awesome!

Well done! You look fantastic!

Wow that's amazing!!!! Great job. I right now look very similar to you your before. Very encouraging be im glad you made the mistake and posted it here.

Wow, you look terrific!!

We're built kind of similar and I want my abdomen to disappear like that. Have you been doing ab exercises or is this all a result of working your diet?

Awesome job. Keep up the good work. There was a Devine reason for the mistake. Encouraging for everyone!!!

Your smile in the 'after' says it all! Amazing progress.

@@jenpoo , nothing special, advice-wise. I just work the program my doctor gave me as best I can. Oh, and I do use Jergens firming lotion almost daily. Not sure if it helps, but it makes me feel better!

@@Okiebon ,I exercise regularly, but I don't do any special ab exercises. My stomach is the last part of me to gain weight (butt and thighs are always first), and it was the first part to lose.

I've lost 12" in my hips and 11" in my waist. Yes!

Keep up the great work I how my goes as well. I wish I could have it now but I have to go to 3 apt first and have a egd to make sure I won't have any problems with acid reflux. Did you have gastric bypass or sleeve?
