It floats (x-post)

I took a bath this morning instead of a shower. I thought I'd have a Calgon moment. I looked down and saw that loose skin floats. It had all risen to the top and had spread out. It looked like scum on a pond and filled the entire tub. I wanted to cry. I can't afford PS but I'm considering doing some medical transcription on the side (like I did when my kids went to college) and start trying to save. I don't want this stuff hanging on me forever. Oh, it was so nasty!!! I'm going for the whole deal. New boobs, new butt, everything will get chiseled lifted. I am shooting for January 2010, and I'll be the perkiest 50-year-old grandmother that ever lived. :)

OH I'm so sorry. That's funny but not funny if you know what I mean. I'm gonna be 50 this year and my lose skin isn't that much but if I grab my sides and pull up (an impromptu lower body lift) I can sure see the shift. It's like pulling up baggy jammies. I showed hubby and he doesn't ever want to see that sight again...the saggy boobs don't bother me but the baggy jammies sure do. I wear support nylons and pull them way up to "keep it all together." LOL.  Maybe I'll save up for that LBL on my wish list..
Yes, RNY worked for me but it also requires a lot of work from me!

The exact same thing happened to me the other day too - I could have written this post!  I usually take showers and found it was so disgusting to see the skn floating!  I want to try and lose another 15 pounds and then I am going to try to get PS paid for as I cant afford it either.  If that isnt' successful then I'm thinking of applying for extreme makeover or something!
