Yeah unfortunately....esp if its plump...um it gonna get skinny too!! Lol

My friend had her tummy, va jay jay and boobs done in miami...looks good!! Im going after 2 yrs

Vajayjay?????? Really? I hadn't even thought about having loose skin there!

Unfortunately it's a pretty common "problem" area. Especially if you've had kids.

Yup!!!

Well...I haven't had kids so maybe I'll be in luck not to have it too saggy there. lol

I do have a fat vajayjay. Crap.

What is there to fix? The labias or the FUPA?

Like I guess the labia. I have fat lips?? I guess. But also like the area above the V is quite plump on me. I guess I have a fat pubic area?

The FUPA (or upper pubic area) tends to store fat especially for those who have had children. I haven't heard of other areas needing to be "fixed" but I know that is a common one after weight loss or even for those who don't need to loose weight but have had children. Fat builds up there and they can't get it off without having lipo/lifting the area.

Can you imagine it!! Oh dear lord...i think i would rather have flabby belly then a flabby vajayjay! Although my husband loves my camel toe i dont want 2 flap jacks!

Is it possible to not have loose skin at all? That is my biggest fear. I'm 5 weeks post op just started back at the gym - for cardio- will start weight training once I get Dr. Approval. I don't want surgery to remove it. Anyone here not need to get surgery to remove the skin? And just firmed it naturally?

It's definitely possible. My skin isn't loose at all eight months out, and though I've exercised (riding my bike to work and back every day, and breaking a modest sweat to videos on Daily Burn) it hasn't been intense. I'm a professor and have actually been mistaken for a college student more often since having the surgery than beforehand. I've been much more mindful about staying properly hydrated, and that's contributed to my skin being healthier overall. I think losing slowly can help decrease the chance of loose skin. I've lost at the speed of a turtle on crutches, but have slowly reached each of the goals I set out for myself thus far. From what I understand, your age, genetics, how long you were obese, the total amount you lose, how often you exercise, and how rapidly you lose weight are all factors.

This area really doesn't/won't bother me because my fiance doesn't care and nobody else is going to see it anyway. There are some that may have issues with it though. You'd be surprised how many ladies have surgery to make their "vajaja" look .... "pretty" LOL.

LOL! I needed that, I really did. I am and will be in your shoes so I smell what you're stepping in trust me.

Exactly! After all the stress I've put my body through, it's depressing to know that I've done this to myself (with a little help from PCOS) and there will be permanent damage because of it. The stretch marks (not JUST on my belly) and lose skin WILL be there to remind me of that but maybe in a way, that is a good thing. It's good to know that I still have a sense of humor about the "aftermath" of something that I cannot change at this point anyway.
