:cursing: Okay so I am so happy to have lost almost 70 punds in five months - my face and my overall health has changed all for the better - but truth be told - my arms and legs still look funky! I would love to start wearing cute summer tops but my arms - oh my! Do any of you have any hidden workout secrets that have helped your arms look good? - Or legs for that matter?

i might be a little bit different sincve im a guy but i have those grandmaw arms since i have lost the 77 pounds myself. but i started to do alot of tricep ex. to help some.

:cursing::thumbup::thumbup:grrrill, if i lost 70 pounds i would be stattic forget the arms the legs, man congratulations.

I want arms like Michelle Obama.I guess it means going nuts on push ups, pull ups, weight lifting and that sort of thing.

Yeah. She's proud of them too. It's 30 freaking degrees outside in DC and she walks around sleeveless 24/7. I've only seen her in sleeves once or twice...... Blah......

The younger you are the better your chance of your arms returning to normal. It has a lot to do with the elasticity of your skin. But you'll also have to be patient. It could take a year to a year and a half past your goal. I'm a few months shy of 50, so I don't have a snowballs chance in hell of ever having pretty arms again. At 27, you should do very well.

Yeah the excess skin *sigh* dropping a lot of weight is a double edge sword. I am very happy and thrilled with the weight I have lost but am taken back with the transformation of my arms and legs (to name a few parts) When I was over 300 lbs I was like "I don't care about excess skin" now I am like "ewwwww" I really think the psychological evaluation should come AFTER you start taking off weight *wink* cause man it is sometimes hard to absorb

Well i think the arms are a little harder to tone than the legs. At least for me. I have found the most wonderful machine in the world... It's called the ArcTrainer. It has really shaped my legs and butt. I use the "weight loss" mode on a low level. I started out only being able to stay on for like 5 minutes and am now up to 45 minutes averaging 3+ miles. I do this 3 to 4 times a week along with some weight training. I have only lost 50 pounds since October but have gone from a size 22W to 16W. So I honestly believe without this machine I would not be getting the results by just losing weight alone.
