Hanging Skin Under Chin



Recommended Posts

My surgery is in 2 days and I've lost 30 pounds on pre-op diet. But, I'm already noticing some hanging skin under my chin. I'm 53 so I guess I shouldn't be shocked but this is new for me and I didn't expect anything like this at least until some bigger levels of weight loss. Damn, I'm going to look like a turkey after losing 100 pounds.

I find myself wearing more turtlenecks now.

OK for this weather but not sure what I'll do when it's warm again :)

But still happy there is less of me now!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
