Massive gut not shrinking



Recommended Posts

I've been lucky on my neck... nothing loose at all.

Although I can hold a pencil under my butt cheek now, the way my sag is... (Not a joke. I tried it.)

My stomach was the last thing to start shrinking it is also where I carry most of my excess skin so I think it’s pretty normal it will go eventually :)

I love hip thrusts. I use Aussie fit torsion bars and put my feet up on the edge of a rower. My hips bruise a bit but i hardly notice.

Everybody sheds weight differently. My tummy and derrière are always last to go. My face and arms, legs, neck always first.

Just keep going and isolate the parts that are hard to shed fat when you work out.

You look great! Congrats and keep going [emoji4]

It may have to do with where you carry the most weight... I carry a lot of weight in my chest and that's reducing slowly but my shape is still the same presurgery just smaller
I hear sculpting the body through Weight training is one option to reshape your body

Ha ha! AWESOME. Not mocking you, I mean your sense of humor is awesome.

Have you heard of "The Pencil Test". It was suggested as a way to measure breast development for girls. If a girls breast could hold a pencil that meant it was time for a bra.

So my question is, what does that mean for your backside? Do they make underwire for the azz? If so what colors and patterns would be best? :D

Picturing so many awesome memes right now . . . .

I unfortunately have a B shaped belly and I was hoping as the weight came off that would change but it hasn't. I still carry a lot of weight in my upper abdomen and my belly button is more hidden then when I was 300 pounds. I don't think I will every get rid of this without some sort of plastic surgery. I'm down 120 pounds and my stomach looks like a smaller version of what it did 120 pounds ago

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
