You look fantastic, so beautiful! Congrats! Good work!
Yes, I have a lot of extra skin. I did have the 'apron' of skin removed already but could use more plastic surgery ...just not in my budget at the moment. (what I had done was covered by insurance)
One thing I've learned is not every piece of clothing is for me. I was so excited to lose weight and learn all the new trends/styles. But what is truely important to me is wearing things that hide the skin ..like the dress in the picture. I love that dress!!! I wear those special underwear that hold everything in too. If you buy the right clothes it's easy to hide and I like being told I don't look like a weight loss surgery patient.
