Shopping for clothes is SO Weird! Saggy skin question...
I am not complaining - mind you I am thrilled to be continually losing weight and feeling more energetic. I have gotten rid of almost all of the clothes that I had in my closet/drawers pre-sleeve. I started out as a tight 26/28, and am now having to buy 18/20's. It is so foreign to me! I keep looking at the Women's sizes like always, think something is cute, try it on and I am swimming in it. Will my brain eventually adjust? many days I don't see the difference when I look in the mirror, but notice in my clothes and the way they fit - or fall off! My aunt who lives across the state asked for before and after pics, and I tried to take a pic of myself, but realized that I looked SO tired, and the skin on my face/neck seems to be hanging - I am hoping it was just the angle - but if it wasn't - what can I do to help that? My stomach flaps are also hanging - I work out at curves 3 to 4 times a week and am more active now than ever. I use lotion, etc. with the hopes it will help. Any suggestions?
If I need to get surgery to remove the flappy skin - what kind of cost and recovery time am I looking at? What time frame do they suggest you wait before getting the surgery? I know it is still a long way off for me - I am only 10-11 weeks out, but am down 54 lbs and it is making a huge difference already.
Thanks!

If the skin bothers you enough, the only real way to deal with it plastic surgery. You can PM me if you want info about plastics as I am recovering right now from all that.
Usually surgeons want you stable at your goal weight anywhere from 6-18 months, depending on the doc. I said to hell with that and had PS before I reached my goal, but I was close enough for me.
