Ode to Loose Skin

My body droops now

Like melted string cheese, or Tommy Wiseau

Flacid fat, deflated flesh balloon

Crepey like wadded tissue,

gross as a handful of chicken fat

Ugly and endearing as a manatee

(the pancake of the sea)

I love every inch of my loose hide

Every sagging absence of fat

Where my angular clavicles slant

Propelled by calves that could have been

Sculpted by Michelangelo

Makes me smile at its absurdity

We laugh to survive

This is an excellent poem! Your sense of sound is artful- especially appreciated the lines

Every sagging absence of fat

Where my angular clavicles slant

Thanks for the poetic pep talk! I just got approved and am waiting on my date and the sags with great anticipation.

Totally just messin around, dutchamy:) But thanks

Congrats on your surgery approval! Best wishes for a safe effective outcome:)

Damn you are close to your goal I knew I would have loose skin under my arms and on my stomach but on my knees LOL oh well I'll take it over the 55 pounds of fat that was once there and I am hoping it all goes back in to place (just f**king around) I'm good with it.

Oh yes to much skin! I knew my stomach would be bad which it is. But I never thought I would have a problem with my thighs and arms. I had a pic taken of me in a tank top and I cringed!! I will still take this over what I had before!
