Neck waddle and the saga of looking old before my time

Okay, so I know this is a petty thing, but between my extremely thinning hair and this lovely hangy thing growing under my *****well shrinking under my chin, lol), I am looking OLD. I suppose that the alternative is dying before my time, but I am feeling quite vain and self-conscious about this. I start a new job Monday, and hate to think that my clients and their parents might think this "granny" (I'm not, yet) is too out of touch with today's youth (I probably am ) You know, if I run a thumbnail up the middle of this thing, from the base of my neck to my chin, I can divide it so it looks like a hot dog bun EEEWWWW I need a quick fix....if my hair wasn't so thin it could disguise a little duct tape pulling it all together at the back.

lol...girl r we twins me too. only thing i'm a grandma 3 times but dang at 45 i don't need to look like one brenda

Lori, You made me laugh. The neck waddle....oh how true is that. When I shake my head from side-to-side, my hot dog bun shakes, too!!! I can so relate to your descriptions. I've had mine going for about 2 months now but it is starting to take on a bit more definition. I'm hoping that before too long it looses a bit of its wiggle - anyone know any weight training exercises for necks!! Cheri RNY 6/15/06 239/212/162.5/125

Lori my gal you are a hoot!! Yep we are all starting to find the same things at basically the same time.... I have ya'all beat! you may be JUST hot dog buns but just call me Tom I am a freakin TURKEY!! whaa haaa!!! ya know that hangy thingy under their beak!! LOL...everything hanging ,sagging,drooping....The worse one...."the girls" they resemble Tube socks with nipples..LOL.... My guess is that the plastic surgeons are just loving this!!

110 lbs. MAN, your stall definitely stopped!! Congratulations. The tube sock thing cracked me up. Oh how naive I was when I said the only PS I would likely have was a breast lift--only because I have wanted a breast lift since I was 13. My mother called me banana boobs back then, long and upturned (yeah, I have mother issues ). I am sure you can guess the upturned description hasn't fit for sometime. I just can't live with the turkey neck waddle, I can't, I won't. 291-187-140

Lori as crazy as this sounds I just stopped Worrying about the weight loss anymore and have a laid back attitude "it will be what it will be" and that is when I really broke the stall.....go figure? I know it has nothing to do with it but it is mentally soothing.lol LMAO... Bananna boobs? ohhhhhh my that is funny! I do agree that the turkey neck issue is starting to get to me too, as is the boobs and Panni area,got a cute little apron going on...ok not cute!!!. well I will say this! I will take this over the fat ANY DAY! Funny I said the same thing about palstics before surgery,I thought I would only need a breast lift WRONG!!! right now I am looking at neck,boobs,panni, possiby tummytuck?tummy it is not to bad I think I may be able to salvage with hard core training,I am working on it,just that not sure? The arms are not bad at all and legs no issue at all,for as big as I was I always had nice legs ( or so I have been told),it was everything they held up that was bad!! Nanc 296-185-150

I'm kinda worried about tripping over my neck or getting it caught in a branch on a windy day

Okay STOOOOPPPPP, I almost wet myself. Lori

Ladies I relate to all the wiggling , giggling ,drooping and sagging and there is no way to hide it.

I can definatly relate, I hate looking at my neck when I do my makeup in the morning. I'm looking pretty good with clothes on, but not so hot when things start coming off. I also have the bat wing thing going on with my arms, and I'm doing upper body workouts. But I guess living a lot longer and happier life is worth it. Any one comes up with ideas about the visible loose skin PLEASE post. Cheryl R 318-223-160
