clk 3,519 Posted January 14, 2013 Great job! I'll say from experience that you're about to get slammed with tons of congrats from everyone, but also many requests for how you're eating, how maintenance is treating you, etc. So be prepared to share a bit more about how you're doing and your method for success. Everyone always wants to know how you did it. You've done great, enjoy the results of your hard work! ~Cheri 1 nicden17 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nicden17 61 Posted January 14, 2013 As for loose skin it's not too bad...At my heaviest i weighed about 415 lbs so of course there is going to be some mainly due to the fact i would yo-yo 100 lbs down 150lbs up...prior to surgery. So i still have a little bit of a saggy belly...Not that bad..and a little flabby arms...Nothing I can't live with and nothing clothes can't cover up. I may later done the road get a Tummy Tuck or something but it hasn't bothered me bad enough to the point where i want to . It's not like i plan on putting on a 2 piece any time soon and strutting my stuff..lol i am healthy and happy that's all i need Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
