6 months or more post-op question....
I had lap gastric bypass surgery 7 weeks ago,I'm feeling great and have lost 52 lbs so far. My question is this. I have a double chin,it is going away gradually,but I was hoping that it will not turn into loose sagging skin. Have any of you been here? What was the results for you? I don't know if there is any type of exerise for the chin!! Anyway,I hope you will respond if you can. Thanks
Hi jeanne,
I have lost 104 pounds.. I did have a double chin but as you can see in my picture (even though I am cheating by tilting my head) it wasn't that large to begin with.. but if you look at my WWW and see some of my older pic's -vs- the newer pic's it did go away..
excersizing for the jaw and face are kinda wierd and hard to explain but yes there is some.. how good they are I have no idea.. after all just think about all the "chewing" muscles it took to get that double chin.. LOL
also I think as for the amount of sag you will have will depend on
1. the elasticity in your skin/genetic's
2. your age
3. how big you are to begin with..
my chin is not my problem area.. now my ass?? oh a whole other story there.. mental pic you don't need: standing naked and my butt cheeks are some place around the back of my knee's.. LOL (not really but it seem's like it)
