60kg down and depressed with my loose skin

[lilbrigy 46]

HELP. Ive lost 60kg since surgury a year a go. Ive always gone to the gym and have good muscle tone. But my loose skin is really getting to me. It makes me feel fat still. I know ive come a long way but i still have 20kg to loose but im scared incase my loose skin keeps getting worse.. HELP

Unfortunately, there isn't anything to be done about it except plastic surgery.

I've lost 102kg (227 pounds) so I completely understand your frustration. In May, I had surgery to remove the excess skin from my stomach and immediately dropped two pant sizes. I still have considerable skin on my arms and thighs, too.

But, here's my take on it: I can hide the excess skin but there was no hiding 227 pounds of fat. I'll take the loose skin over the fat any day.

Best wishes.

I honestly don't know. Here in the US, the prices vary greatly. Because my skin hung below my pubic line my insurance actually paid to have it removed. I haven't decided if I'm going to look into surgery for my arms and legs, too.
