So, even though I’ve lost weight and I continue to run, I can’t seem to get my stomach firm. It’s semi flat and smaller, but it has not changed in firmness. I decided to look into lipo while waiting for my sister to get done with her breast augmentation. The nurse took me into an office for a ‘consultation’. She began poking my gut when I told her why I was thinking of lipo and she asked if I had lost weight recently. When I said yes, she told me I needed a tummy tuck…not lipo.

A TUMMY TUCK?

She told me it was not fat, but slightly extra skin. I was happy to hear it was skin not fat until I realized that I was 26 with no kids. Had I been overweight for so long that I now need a mini tummy tuck??

I’m going to try skin firming products first, but does anyone have any other suggestions?

PS

I’m REALLY bummed about the Hydroxycut recalls! That stuffed worked SO good!!

I’ve lost almost 30lbs and have been buying single digit jean sizes, but see the same size every time I look at myself. It’s almost like I’m seeing a smaller me, but with the same flub trying to push out my skin. I’ve decided to slow my roll on cardio a bit and start weight lifting in an attempt to tone the fat away. I certainly do not want to end up ’skinny fat’. Still, I can’t help but to feel like I’m doomed to always stare at a maybe improved body, but still lackluster. I’m striving for a body like those on Oxygen covers even when my co-workers laugh at me. I feel like I can get it, but don’t expect it. Is this normal? I’m seeing results, but not seeing results…? Yea, I’m confused too! = D
