So I have started jogging again. I used to, but it has been a long time and 50 pounds or so ago.

I noticed that I can feel my "back fat" jiggle. The real question is whether it is truly back fat or loose skin. Feels weird either way. Should I double up my sports bra and wear 1 backwards? 🤔

Really hoping the skin tightens. . . . .or I lose more back fat.

Anyone else have strangeness with new workouts?

Or good workout modifications?

Hey there you could double up on bras but if the front isn't the problem try a compression styled tank top. Super fitted , works wonders!!!!

Yep I use compression tank tops! Walmart actually carries my favorite ones.

Compression gear. Hands down. Just make sure you buy 1 size smaller than you currently wear and I suggest not spending too much on them if you know you'll be losing a bunch more weight. Sucks buying expensive stuff and then not having it be useful any longer when you shrink. Plenty of cheap compression gear for women all over the place, target, Walmart, Amazon, etc.

That's me from behind preop. (Gray shirt, not firehat 😉). I am pretty sure it is loose skin jiggle and am really hoping it will get better.

Thanks for the suggestions. I will definitely get some compression tank tops.

Jiggling back fat/skin is kinda funny 😜, but I was surprised at how uncomfortable it was too.

Took a while, but my back fat disappeared:) No fat, not even much loose skin...looks smooth and awesome again! (still waiting on my tummy, but there have been some terrific improvements) But my back looks great again... no little Michelin Man ripples:)

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
