Weirdest None-Scale-Victory - I'll go first

  • Popular Post

Today I had an unexpected and surprisingly satisfying NSV. I noticed that my belly button shrank. It's about 50% shallower than it used to be! Who knew I would be so pleased about less depth to my belly button? ?

    1. Who moved my car seat back? Oh, nobody. My butt is smaller and I'm sitting further back. 2. What? Do gold necklaces stretch? Oh, no. My neck just got smaller and now the chain looks long

& little pimply type things on my arms. All gone.

And here I thought I was super observant.

Now that you mention THIS, it just dawned on me that the little pimply things on my upper arms are gone too. Weird i never noticed.

Yay to the death of pimply arms!

Ok but shaving underarms when they are concave is a much bigger challenge! I heard somebody got loose skin removed on their upper arms and it took out their underarm hair- of a surgeon could promise me that I think I’d start saving for surgery tomorrow! ?

Would it be easier with those little bikini razors??

This is my experience! Since my arm lift, i basically have no hair in my pits anymore. Scar, yes, but hair, no, lol

I had an arm lift surgery. I have a tiny bit of hair in my pits but honestly it was easier to shave with my concave pits than it is now.

I had the loose skin removed almost a year ago and no longer have to shave armpits and the scars turned out great! I also don't seem to sweat there anymore...another bonus.

Maybe not the right post to ask about it, but for those who had upper arm surgery, what is the approximate cost? I know it depends on the doctor and where you live, but I’m getting to the point where I’m considering it..,

I had my arm lift along with a tummy tuck and breast lift/augmentation so can’t tell you what each cost separately. I paid $16,100 for all three procedures combined.

Omg that's my DREAM to take a surfing lesson in Hawaii. The first time I went I was 6 months pregnant. The 2nd time I was almost 400 pounds, so I never was able. I plan on going back to Hawaii again, and I WILL do it. I turn 50 Monday, and I don't know when I will get back there but I don't care how old I am, I have to take a surfing lesson!
Congratulations on such an amazing NSV! So awesome!
