For Lisa Boone (or any others)
Hi Lisa, I just viewed your photos. Am I right in
calculating that you have lost 130 pounds in about 7 months?
This is wonderful. I am 3 1/2 months post op and have
lost 65 pounds. Im averaging 2 pounds a week right
now. My question to you is about sagging skin. You
look great in your photos. Do you have a problem with
this, and if so, what do you do.<br>I have high blood
pressure that is brought on when I get overheated or
tired. It seems like 2 minutes of any exercize and Im
about to have a stroke. I know this will get better as
I lose weight on my own, but I worry about my
already sagging skin. Do you have any suggestions for me?
Im 30. Ive been overweight for 10 years. I was 335
pre-op and now Im 270. What can someone who cant
exercize do to limit the sagging skin?

St. Claire,<br>I have a problem with sagging
skin. I hide it well. I do try to drink lots of water
and keep my skin moist with lotion. I started my
exersise regimen with fast walking. I still don’t do
aerobics..lol<br>I do run and lift weights. I can run 2.5 miles at a
time right now. It usually takes me about 25 minutes
to do it.<br>I would definately try to push fluids..
but skin does stretch and sometimes doesn’t want to
go back. I do wish you the BEST of luck. See my new
photos.. I updated just now. :)<br>God Bless,<br>Lisa
