    Very inspiring! Do you mind me asking if you have much loose skin? Please forgive me if that's too personal.

    I have some loose skin. Not going to lie. But not horrible. I think if I'd work out and build some muscle up it would probably almost disappear.

    BTW, I'm lazy. My version of working out is cleaning house and hiking. Love hiking, but my hiking buddies knees, my husband, have been bothering him. He had the surgery and lost 50 pounds. Remained obese. Gained some of that back. This surgery isn't a miracle cure. You have to make lifestyle changes. He didn't. I don't know if you can stretch your stomach back out, but I've watched him eat. He eats as much or more the surgery. Me, I can barely get a cup/ cup and a half of food down still.

    I have some loss skin. Not to much. But I have had two kids and multiple surgeries. My arms, legs, boobs and belly definitely have some skin but nothing I can't handle. BUT definitely sag when I lean forward. So, I don't lean forward.
