female only Naked...

Funny how when I was 340 lbs I didnt want my husband to see me naked and now at 155 I still dont. I finally showed him my belly this morning with the lights on... I just feel like I look good with my clothes on and then you unwrap me an I have hanging skin. Now I dont think it looks as bad as I have seen some look but am still self concious. I am still thrilled with my results but at my age of 45 I dont hold out much hope of my skin bouncing back. Too bad we cant donate extra skin to burn victims!! You cant.. I have researched it!!

you can donate skin in Alabama. .research it.

I'm currently pre-op and like to plan ahead, so I've been asking a lot of questions at appointments. The behaviors modification counselor I'm seeing has been stressing that I work now on improving muscle tone to help avoid sagging upper arms, but she hasn't had encouraging ideas for my wrinkled lower stomach. My primary physician said that a Panis surgery will likely be needed. Having have already experienced insurance issues I thought, it would be considered cosmetic, but my primary physician explained if it is causing skin breakdown it would be seen as medically necessary.

So if you are having skin problems where it folds over on to itself, please have your physician document it for you just in case you may need prove later.

@LilBoo007 I have had a similar experience. My huband was a bit shocked at how strange the skin on my breasts can look. Definitely want plastic surgery when my weight stabilizes!
