Loose skin party 🎉

I do the exact same thing - every angle, every milestone shot. Started at 244, sitting at 143 now. All this loose skin used to get me down, but now I'm genuinely proud of it. Keep documenting this chapter - it matters way more than you realize. Rooting for you.
 
Your loose skin looks way better than mine ever did. I'd be wearing a bikini all summer if mine looked like that. You look fantastic.
 
started jan 2024 and after a year my insurance pulled the plug with ridiculous copays. three months off and gained 25 pounds back eating the exact same way. i'm fine with being on this forever if that's what it takes. last shipment was four days late and i felt like absolute crap for a week. worth it though.
 
Celebrating loose skin as evidence of the loss that caused it is the reframe that actually works. The lifting and firming cream combination is the most evidence-supported approach for improving skin quality over 12-18 months. For meaningful total losses some degree of change is likely permanent, but it reduces significantly with time, protein intake, and consistent resistance training. Collagen remodeling runs 1-2 years, not months.
 
The lifting advice is correct. Muscle volume underneath determines how much the skin has to drape over, so building while losing is more effective than addressing skin after the fact.
 
That trade-off is the honest framing. Loose skin means the weight is actually gone. Most people reach that view after carrying the fat long enough.
