I think that’s just normal as it shrinks. It doesn’t look as bad to others as it does to yourself. We are our own worst critics and all that.

Keep up the great work!

We are all are own worst critic's! Wear it as a badge of honor, you deserve it! 70lbs gone, that it absolutely amazing!! Way to go?

I've lost 225 pounds, and I have that on my tummy, arms, and inner thighs. And no one has ever said a thing about it. (Though I am considering having some plastics work done this fall, but we'll see about it.)

I agree that we are our own worst critic...

Wow! Congrats on the 70lbs down!!! I bet you don't feel like you could pop anymore? Agree 100% on being our own worst critics!

Look at it the way I look at my 2 stretchmarks on my belly. I got them through my pregnancies and they're my skin's diary documenting the two best things that ever happened to me. This is one of the most significant points of your life. Look at your dimpled tummy and learn to smile because it symbolises the amazing changes you've made and how far you've come. X

That is a very good sign. Your body is feeding off its fat reserves. Unfortunately this isnt going to occur uniformly at once, but eventually it will even out as fat stores in one area are depleted your body will draw energy from another.
