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

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I realized that I haven’t lost weight. All my clothes have just stretched to fit. FML
Today, after going through a major weight loss and change of lifestyle to better my confidence and health, I now have saggy thighs, arms and boobs, a deflated ass, two inches of hanging stomach, and have realized just how unsymmetrical my face is. Oh, and my physical health has never been worse. FML
Today, I noticed that I've gained so much weight that even my feet have stretch marks. FML
Today, after much dieting and exercise, I can proudly say that my love handles are now bigger than my ass. FML
Today, my boyfriend suggested I try on some old clothes, after weeks of eating better and exercising. The good news: they fit again, and are even a little bit loose. The bad news: somehow, I look fatter now than I did before I started trying to lose weight. FML
Today, after losing 20 pounds, I decided to purchase new clothes. All of the clothes at the store were still too small for me. FML
Today, my friend was complaining to me that she's gained 20 pounds and it's all gone to her butt and boobs. Meanwhile, I've also gained 20 pounds, and it's gone straight to my stomach. She looks better than she did before. FML
Today, despite being skinny everywhere else on my body, I have a double chin. FML
Today, my boyfriend encouragingly told me that he could tell I was losing weight, all because I had one roll fewer than usual on my stomach. FML
Today, for the hundredth time this year, I was told to lose weight. As an adult, I weigh 90 pounds soaking wet. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Save up your money for a skin reduction surgery. you can actually donate the loose skin to burn victims. congrats on the weight loss!

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

I think you need surgery or something.

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.

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=
Cass3m0 0
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...

well at least there's ways to get that fixed.
