Your post made me remember an aerobics instructor I had once. She had us do this weird exercise with our arms and she would say, "this is for the stuff that keeps on waving even after you have stopped..." Good visual, eh?

I have them too. I went to the doc and had my BP taken and she practicly folded them in half! I hate it but I am sure they didn't look too good when they were inflated either! LOL Don't think EVERY one has em just kind of a typical thing. Kinda like we all get that WLS shape too. (Seems to all settle in the bottom!)

OMG Lenore.. If you could see mine (sigh)... When I bend forward, they form a gigantic dipple in the middle of my upper arm.. Looks abnormal.. And then the flaps gotta go too.. Oh my, the consequences of WLS.. IMHO, I think age, seditary life style, heredity, excess weight, fat cells locations are all part of it.. My inner thighs are horrible too.. In fact the lady that got Plastic Surgery on the BIG MEDICINE SHOW yesterday, her name was Claudine, well her body and my body are exactly the same..Well she had the plastics done but I am still the same. That is exactly what I look like.. But I still would not take the WLS back and I have to say that I love my band.. You are beautiful Lenore, and so are all the other ladies on this form.. Look at all of us.. We all transformed like butterflies, and became these gorgeous creatures full of inner and outer beauty. Pat yourself on the back cause you are a big inspiration for so many..

Nope. I think it all depends on how you carried your weight, and whether you do some strength training to "fill out" the skin a bit. I tried to post a pic in this message, but it won't seem to stick! So, here's a link to a pic: http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j190/tamit2/Pre-ps.jpg Now, my thighs are a whole 'nother story! Tami

What I hated more than saggy arms is tank tops, and spagetti straps ****s. I will seek refuge in the comfort of my good ole tee shirts! I saw a girl, God bless her for her confidence, she was a salesperson for verizon, and the poor thing had stretch marks on her shoulders, my guess is she had bypass, she was tiny and looked wonderful, she did have scars from PS on her inner arms. She still looked great.
