Do you like how you look with no clothes on?

I have to say I don't and I am quite embarrassed to show my stumach. I have no hanging skin so that is not my issue it is the scars are keloid and they make me feel nasty. They are big and dark and feel disgusting on my belly. I was told they will go down in years. Had I known this would happen I may not have done this to myself. I am not the happiest person as it is.

NOPE!  I hate the way I look with no clothes on.  i have skin everywhere, my breasts are saggy and deflated.  LoL  Not even my partner has seen me naked yet..And I dont think she will.  As for the scars...Mine are barely visable at 8 1/2 months post op.

Not one bit. But... I remind myself I did this for health reasons, not vanity.

I had major complications from surgery so I'm very surgery phobic now. I'm starting to maybe kind-of-sort-of think about cosmetic surgery... but that's about it.  I might do something some day.  Maybe.

For now I'm still learning to accept the imperfections.

No - but then again, I look better without my clothes on than I did before surgery.  There really isn't any reason you need to show your stomach in public is there?  Don't be a slave to fashion.  A lot of people wear clothes they really shouldn't.  Be proud of yourself.  You might try a little Mederma on your scars.

I don't feel comfortable letting my man see my belly. I would never show it to the world.

I feel sexy bc my husband thinks I'm sexy. I know my boobs are saggy I have a panni and wrinkly skin but I still feel good about myself.

My scar is also keloid but I'm not showing it in public just with hubby. Try talking positively to yourself and only say what you like about your body, instead of focusing on the bad.

Yes and no, but I love my body with clothes on I feel awsome and that is what is most important to me! I love to look at myself in the mirror now (with or without clothes on) I also love to touch my body and go "wow I didnt know I had bones there!" LOL. I still have about 75 lbs to go so I'm not a big fan of all the skin I continue to get but oh well! I love my new body!

Yep!  Of course, I loved myself at 324 lbs.  I parade around naked in front of my hubby as if I'm a VS model.....I love me regardless.  Yes, I have saggy skin and deflated boobs, but I also have very good muscles underneath the skin.  I love the health I've gained--and I'm not considering plastics (my choice--I'm not against it--just don't want to risk surgery for vanity--and have all the down time recovering....my skin causes me no issues).

I hope you can learn to love you just the way you are.  Best to ya.
