Dearest Carly you are simply the best! 70 lbs gone and the only downside is that there is less of you to love.

You have a lot of health issues and i love that you never allow that to throw you off course.

Lovely news to hear about a lovely person.

Carly, it is so amazing ..how well you have done...I went and looked at your before and after pictures, and one thing jumped out to me...your arms look great...and I know sometimes people have trouble with sagging skin, but you sure don't seem to have any problem with that...I was wondering if you did something special, like weights, or did you eat something special...I have a long time before I have to worry about that, but I wanted to say that whatever you did , it sure has worked well for you..and do you have any ideas about how to avoid sagging skin on the arms...thank you.

Oh that picture totally does not show the horrendous amount of loose skin on my arms. The loose skin is more than double the size of my now puny arm. It is not cute and I can not actually wear sleeveless in real life. My arms are hideous- seriously. I'll post goal pictures soon since I've lost quite a bit since that last picture.

jaymar · 01-30-2013, 07:28 AM

Sorry, Carly...didn't know you were unhappy about your arms because in the picture , to me, they looked good...well..who knows..could be you will find a good solution to getting them where you want them to be...I use small weights, but have no idea if it will help or not...I had one little trick I used to do when losing weight and I need to try it again...when I would lose a few pounds, I would put very small weights in my pocket when I was going to walk a lot..took them out of ankle weights...if you know what kind I mean...that way I figured my body wouldn't know I had lost a few pounds and would work harder...seems like it worked a little bit..

I'm going to try it again I think..

My arms are beyond help, but I like the idea about little weights. I started using a resistance band, but my neck and back were not thanking me today

WTG!!!! You simply look amazing. I never would have guessed it was 70 lbs. Fabulous job!
