Do you feel squishy?

I'm one month out and I feel squishy all over. Well that is to say my arms, legs, etc the skin is no longer tight and firm. It's well to say soft and like the TP squishy. The other day after going to the doctor's office I noticed it the most when the nurse took my blood. The rubber band really cut into my arm and that was a first. While it has always hurt like crazy when they do that I didn't expect to see the band sink into my arm like that. I'm still waiting for the doctor's ok to start excerising. I do take walks and get around the house. I know at times I'm a little dehydrated and I'm working on that.  But I just found it funny that now I'm loosing weight instead of my skin being so tight I'm a little like bread dough. It's most noticeable about my tummy. All the skin streach lines are turning white and shrinking. They are no longer angery red and looking like I'm popping my skin. Just wondering if anyone else notice themselves being squishy?

Yeah - Kind of like the Pillsbury Dough Boy! Poke my tummy and I giggle too.

Hehehehe yea it's just like that. I was like what the hay? Poke poke... Giggle. "Mom what are you doing?" Put my top back over my tummy. "Nothing dear go play your game." Daughter rolls her eyes and leaves the room.

WOW I have 1 black cat and you have what 7? Mine is the son of a son of a Walla Walla farm cat. He's 12 years old now and called Ambrosia.

Nope, we have EIGHT black cats. My hubby calles them "The Eight is Enough Gang".  He has asked me to "puhleeze" stay away from the SPCA.  They are: Joey, Nicky, Isabella, Jimmy, Annie, Becky, Abigail, and Tony.

Ah I miscounted. My word you have a crew there.

I guess I'm not one of the people with "elastic" skin because I was squishy pretty quick too....... and now 17 months out and 10 lbs. from goal I'm very squishy!  I hope to change some of that with plastics, but some of it I'll have to live with forever - like arms, legs, etc.... BTW, I exercise every day....... the muscles are firm under the squishiness! Hang in there! Crystal

Yep.....I am known as squishy grandma

Hey but squishy is good. Hugs have more meanings.

Hi,  I'm right there with you. I feel like someone opened my skin while I was sleeping and dumped in a bunch of jell-o. My husband and I just got back from a road trip last night. While gone I noticed for the first time that my tail bone started to hurt after sitting for a while. That was a first. Hopefully we will firm up someday .
