Loose skin already?



Recommended Posts

Surgery was 10-27-16, I am down 46 pounds. I have noticed that my skin is way loose and jiggly on my back and stomach. I still have 100 pounds to go and am terrified as to what I will look like.

Does it eventually tighten back up some? It is almost like I am deflated.

I am obviously not a super model but am worried about how I will physically feel. I am wearing a lot of compression clothing to make it not feel so weird.

Thanks!

I have lost around the same. Probably more if i count my highest. Im starting to see some flabby skin too. I am a little worried but not as much yet. I'll have to see how bad it gets i guess.

Well, I am right there with both of you. I especially have a lot of flabby skin on my forearms. I have been doing small hand weights hoping that it will go away a little. I'm also using lotion.

I hope that some of it will go away.

Hey everyone. I hear weight training, even low weight/hugh repetitions are great for helping your skin tone. It of course isn't foolproof, but it does help. I was sleeved 11/18, down 43lbs & besides What was already flabby, I don't have extra skin because I started low weight training the moment I could lift. Trust me, The 10lbs weight limit we first had was enough.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
