I've pretty much had chub rub my entire adult life so much so that the skin between my thighs is dark. Does chub rub go away after you lose weight? What's does it feel like to have thighs that don't touch lol.

The only place I had dark skin was on my stomach from decades of tight jeans. I wear jeans pretty much every day of my life. Anyhow I thought it was there to stay but after a month or so of loose jeans it was gone. Good luck with yours!

My thighs have always been big, even at a size 2, they were larger than most because if genetics and soccer. Now that I am losing weight, my thighs resemble melting candle wax. It's actually kind of amusing although I do hope the skin catches up with the weight loss, even a little. Instead of chub rub, I now have flap slap when I do martial arts. I can actually hear them slapping together when I do spinning kicks. GROSSSSSSSS!!!!

You all are too funny! I'm so mad I read this I had to hold my tummy I was laughing so hard! Now it hurts a little! I've never heard those terms! I was going to treat my chub rub with skin brightener while I'm home for a month. I need to start right now. Flap slap LOL!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
