I have that problem too. I've been using hand weights. Go on you tube and look up exercises for flabby arms. I think it's helping but I know it's going to take time. Good luck.

I still have 60 pounds to lose and I know my arms will need some TLC from a plastic surgeon!

I'm going to need an arm job.

But lets face it...before you lost the weight, did you feel comfortable in short sleeve or sleeveless? I don't. I always wear elbow length or 3/4 sleeves.

My shirts were 99 percent of the time covering my huge arms. I guess there was a point that I was like f it whatever I will never be skinny so let the arm show if it was 90 degree but other then that I was cover.

Yesterday was my 1st encounter with this and I was upset all day. I wore sleeveless and I could see a nice little shoulder and bicep muscle starting from working out. Felt good leaving the house and then in my cars mirror I saw all this extra fat hangin under my arm. Maybe not fat, but skin. I still have another 30-something until my goal so that's only gonna get worse. Same with my upper thigh. Didn't think that would be an issue and yuck! Also I now have stretch marks from my upper thigh down to the middle of my calves. I was so excited for summer losing all this weight and now I'm gonna still be self conscious. :(

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
