Face Exercise
Just curious to know if anyone pre or post op does face and neck exercises? My brother and my girlfriend both had RNY and both of them have chicken necks; at least thats what they look like to me. Neither one of them exercised before or after surgery.
I'm in process of getting to the surgery myself and I'm exercising now, not a lot though because of my size, but I want to continue working on my health as much as I can even after the surgery.
Any thoughts anyone???

Basically exercise can increase muscle mass and burn calories. In a recent study, the people who exercised had firmer skin than the ones that didn't but it wasn't enough of an effect to get rid of batwings or chicken neck. Only PS is going to get rid of that.

I'm short and what little neck length I have is covered by a double chin. I guess I'll try the exercises and if they don't work for me I'll look for other options. In the meantime I'll keep saving for plastic surgery for when I get to goal.
Thanks Again
