Warning, for women only, wierd body issues

Body Issue 1:

This morning in the shower I realized that my belly flop/apron/deflating stomach/etc is getting really deflated, looks like a beat up loaf of uncooked bread. Anyway, I never paid a whole lot of attention to it before but my pubic area is still really fat and chubby. I look like a Ken doll. Ok, I know this is not normal what so ever. Do I need to call my obgyn, or has it been this way. I don't want to ask DH because I know he'll end up laughing about it. It definately doesn't look like Jenna Jameson there or any other woman in her line of work. Am I normal?

Body issue 2:

So then I'm looking in the mirro as I dry off and realize my nipple are pointing to the floor. This is something new as they used to be where they were supposed to be. What is going on?

Thanks!

Indigo, I thought you were joking but I goggled it and found it. How does it compare to spanx

:lol:lol:lol: No I wasn't joking and you are like me googling everything.. :)

I wear it more and more often - I right now I have target brand spanks on - but I don't like the ones that goes to your thights cuz no matter what they say we you sit there is a little line where they end but its not bad. I think the lipo is a little stronger - I have some high waisted spanx tights that i wear too..

I have the lipo in a box that goes up to your bra and ends where normal panties do - I love it - I still have some back fat 1 1/2 roll compared to 3 full rolls and I HATE muffin tops so I were mine alot.

Also they have one on tv that has straps - I might order that one too - the more i think about what i am wearing now "assets" it's made by spanx i went with smaller size - cuz i was 8 lbs from it and It's good - but i think i like my lipo in a box better - I think I can order a smaller size cus I wore this one i have at my highest - I hate back fat...

OMG -- it hurts to LOL!!! (I was in a high impact rear-end collision on Friday and hurt all over!!!) But I couldn't help but LOL at your description!!! I still have a LOT of weight to lose, but am beginning to fear my extra skin may be getting tangled around my ankles before I hit goal and am considered for a TT.

I'm so excited for you -- the countdown begins! -- and can't wait to follow your progress!!

Nana<---dreaming of the day she'll be past all of the surgeries!!

yikes! you doing OK?

My DH grabbed my rapidly shrinking ass yesterday and exclaimed: "Damn, it's all gooshy and squishy now. what happened?" thanks. I needed that.

You know, from my photo there you can tell that my stomach held up OK, but yeah, I have the puffy mons syndrome too. I figure I've had a caesarean and I remember being HORRIFIED about how it looked after that, changed it utterly. I dont look like a porn star either. But I can wear a bikini so I dont particularly care.

My boobs I'm fussier about, they've ALWAYS looked at the floor, and they're getting fixed, I"m going to have better tits than I did at 16 years old. And both will be the same size which will be a nice change.

That's one of the good things about DH getting banded too. He doesn't dare make any rude comments I can turn back on him!:biggrin2:

I miss having boobs. I used to be a double D and eighty pounds later, I am a really saggy C. Its weird but I feel so upset about it, that and my arm flab have got me down lol.

  • 2 weeks later...

Thanks for the laughs people!!! I too am dealing with saggy parts and quite frankly never really paid attention to Antartica cause I couldn't see it....but now I do and it too will need some TLC! I will keep heaving the girls into a bra until I have lost all the weight I need to, but the good thing about it is that my hubby is extremely supportive to finance the reconstructive surgeries in the end!:cool:

Oh I'm going to go check out that Lipo in Box right now online! I've been wearing tummy slimmers for years (since i hit my top weight.) I wear the high top panties that go up to your bra.

Where most women have the "apron" I have the opposite. My lower belly below my waist is normal and chubby but smoothes out nicely under jeans and was never a concerns. between my boobs and waist I feel like I have another rack of tits. It permanently looked like my fat belly was spilling over my pants all the time. I still wear them now to smooth things out after losing 100+ pounds, but looking for something better than I pick up at Target.

-Leena - I experience the chubby mons! my lower belly is all flat and saggy now, and my mons is chubby and swollen looking. I actually wondered once if I could get that lipoed or do a mons/labia tuck...

I've had droopy boobs since i got boobs at age 8. Totally got jipped on the perky tits.

On topic of the pencil test... in my younger more shameful years while I was up at 280+, I demonstrated to my friends that I could hold a full 2 liter of soda under each breast. There is a picture somewhere I may have burned already.

Now my boobs are flat, like without a bra, i look flat chested until you see the boobs sitting on my tummy. I'm 28, no breastfeeding yet.

This is not self depricating at all, I'm always pretty light hearted about body issues. I look bad ass all tucked into my tummy slimmer and bra so I dont' worry too much.

Getting thin didn't look like I thought it would naked. But even though i'm saggy, I totally love my whole body more than ever. It reminds me where I've been, and being fat made me who I am, i'm just getting better now.

(sorry this got so long, i've been up with reflux all night and just got a second wind)

I am new, and anticipate the same problems, but I was hoping to get some feedback on a current.

I consider myself and clean person, and always work hard and being clean in certain areas.

But this new diet, all the Protein and shakes and fish, I have notices a change in oder and taste (according to DH). How did I go from sweet and pleasant to bitter and foul!?!

Sorry if this grossing anyone out, but what do I do?
