Hello All
It has been a long time since I posted here. Let me introduce myself, my name is Annabelle and I had WLS March 2008. I was 355 lbs and today i am 145 lbs and I have maintained this weight for a year now. I love life, I have found a new hobby, and that is shooting pool. LOVE IT!
I am 40 years old, and single, and I am having the time of my life, but I can't stop thinking about all this skin.
I would not have ever emagined that it would consume me so much, but it does. I have medi-cal, I am a single mom, and no way of paying for it. I have no medical issues because of the skin.
My issues, probably just like everyone else, is how my clothes fit, being intamate with someone, and of course the mental, when I see yourself naked.
By all means, I would do it all over again, the bypass surgery has been a sucess so far, and I love the quality of my life, but want to be able to share my life with someone special, and i can't get past what I look like naked.
Thank you for letting me get out some of my fealings, and take care for now.

Congrats on losing so much weight. You have done a great job. I am not sure about the skin problem. I am not that far in my journey but I hope you find a solution.
You are still a inspiration to all of us whom just started.
