Daily Post--2/28/08

I have a lot of excess skin; but the skin on my tummy doesn't bother me as much as the skin on my arms. The tummy skin, that I can hide well under clothes; however, my arms, well, they just prevent me from wearing some really cute clothes. I'm very self conscious about them. But I can deal with that much more than I could deal with being so overweight. A small price to pay I guess. Michele

I don't know where I'll be, as I'm still early out, but I can tell you it's probably a lot easier to hide skin than to try and hide fat. Maybe I won't be able to wear a backless dress, but I'll be able to wear a snug fitting sweater without having more rolls than a bakery.

I have sagging skin and I think my face looks older but I don't care. I feel so much healthier and happier, I can live with the skin ****il the time comes that I need to make a decision about removal).
