its kinda of depressing...
to look in the mirror at my legs. My legs used to be one of the good features I had. Big, yes but firm and shapely. Now my thighs have so much lose skin on them they wiggle...THEY NEVER DID BEFORE! ugh...the inner part of the thigh just wiggles and sags it looks horrible. I dread next summer and wearing shorts, and even in jeans its getting to be noticable ...*sigh*...i hate myself for ever letting myself get that damn big that I had to resort to WLS to lose the weight and am left with this reminder of my fat days :(
This past summer I refused to get in a bathing suit because I looked horrible, very saggy thighs and the skin looks darker there as well. I wore spandex work out shorts and a t-shirt and it held all that sag in and worked for me! It still looks saggy and wrinkly because of the stretch marks hopefully I wont need to resort to plastic surgery in the future, but time will tell.

My legs are pretty terrible and I am 62 with no hope of rebounding skin and no desire for plastics. You are young enough to have a good chance for some rebounding so they won't be too bad. I was happy in capris and elbow lenght shirts all summer. When I went on the cruise, I did wear a swim suit in the water and on the beach but otherwise stayed covered. I figured I would never see those folks again anyway, who did I have to impress?
