Extra skin
Return to DiscussionsHey. So Ive lost around 130 pounds. And I have extra skin. Its in my stomach, butt, thighs. I plan on getting skin removal eventually but has anyone else had to deal with this? Im 31. I feel like if people see my body without clothes, its just gross.
Im happy to have lost the weight. Just feeling not as confident in my body.
That's amazing, congrats on the weight loss!
I can't speak to it personally, since I haven't even begun the weight loss journey yet, but from all the research I've done about excessive weight loss and the after effects it's completely natural to be almost as self conscious about the excess skin after losing so much weight as you were about the weight you carried beforehand. In regards to the reactions of others in the nudist community though, you can't control how others are going to react to your body in it's transitional state, but what you can do is control who you expose yourself to, figuratively speaking. If you're concerned others might not be polite or tactful, then make sure you surround yourself with those close friends who know what struggles you've gone through to get where you are and who you know will be supportive and encouraging. Having that close knit friend group will help you keep your confidence high, where it belongs.
