Loose fit

By cloud7 - 27/12/2010 03:40

Today, after finally dropping my weight from an overweight 200 to a slim 135, my skin is now loose everywhere, and stretches about two inches out on my stomach. FML

That's common with dramatic weightloss. It's unfortunate, but there is not much you can do about it outside of plastic surgery.

good job on the loss, not a fail. Exercise to tighten that skin up, & get the excess skin cut off... that's all the advice I have @ 3:30am...

I don't think it's a fail. good job on the weight loss. exercise to tone it up a bit, & cut off all of that excess skin. it's just going to hang there. I've seen it happen to a few people with drastic weight loss. it's stretched too far to bounce back if after ages of exercising, it hasn't already.

It's not really a fail, it's really unfortunate. When I lost a lot of weight (size 16 to a size 8) that happened to my arms. I have skin there that won't tighten up ever with lifting weights. I feel your pain OP, that sucks.

Okay op, quit whining and be glad you lost the weight, or gain it back. I love how people complain about being fat, make the effort to change it, and complain about that too. FYL, glad you lost the weight, and hope it all works out for you(:

This is definately not a fail. OP, I know how it feels. I went from 220 to 130, by going to the gym and eating less. I assumed the skin would shrink with me, but it didn't right away. I've had the weight off for 3 years and still have stretch marks, but the skin has tightened up quite a bit. Just be patient keep, working out and congratulations on the weight loss.

No, what's gross is when you have an English teacher who is still large but has this condition, and she slaps you with her arm folds in the mouth while pointing at something on your computer monitor. I haven't eaten jello since.

Not true. Google "donate skin" and you'll fin that it's an urban legend. OP-try going from 265 to 125 and THEN I might feel sorry for you and your saggy skin. Tummy tucks run about 10 grand. Get one or get over it.

Not everyone has an extra $10,000 laying around for cosmetic surgery. Damn.

115, you can absolutely donate skin! When you chose to be an organ donor skin is one of the categories along with eyes and organs and such. Its tue you can't go into a hospital and say " wanna take my skin", but you can donate healthy skin after its been removed.

#141 hence why they said that OP should SAVE up for the surgery.

you can get it removed and some insurances pay for it...but only if they think the excess skin will cause problems...like rotting D=

Rotting, nine? Dx Anyways, OP, once you get that extra skin off, you'll have lost some more weight and be well past your gold. Always look on the bright side of life....doo-doo doo doo doo-doo...
