Question:
I am 29, 5'6 1/2

Has anyone lost the weight and been able to exercise the apron and batwings away? Pictures to share of similar situation?    — Sherry Y. (posted on September 6, 2002)

Sherry.....I am 31, 5'6" and when I had surgery(9 wks ago) I weighed 253. So our cases are very similar. I know it hasn't been long since my surgery but I have already lost 53 pounds as of today. I am exactly at 200 lbs. I think just from the way my own body is reacting to the weight loss that things will be fine. My skin seems to be proportionate with my body and I am very satisfied with the way I look. I do still have the panni and bat wings but I am exercising everyday at curves for women and I can tell how much that helps the skin shrink. IF there is anything else you would like to know please feel free to e-mail me. [email protected]

Hi! I am 26, 5'5 1/2 and weigh 130 now. I started at 240lbs one year ago aug 29th. I have tightened up a lot but my tummy is still a bit yucky. I am trying to see about a tummy tuck. My arms and legs look really good. I was surprised cause I thought I was gonna have to have everything fixed. Anyway I think it just takes time to go back. Even though my tummy hangs a bit it still looks flat in clothes. I will be putting a picture up next weekend so keep my name so you can check it out. Good luck, and you will be surprised at you results.
