I was just looking at your website and admiring how well you have done on your weight loss journey. I have a question or two. And please bear with me if you've discussed all of this before.

Have you exercised during this time? The reason I ask is because I am wondering when I lose this weight what my skin will look like after having been stretched for so long. I am thinking of Carney Wilson who had all kinds of cosmetic surgery to rid herself of the extra skin that had nowhere to go.

About 13 years ago I lost 60 pounds(gained it all back) and the skin still just kind of hung there BUT I didn't exercise at all. I am so lazy about that.

Have you had this problem or have things firmed back up and fallen back into place?

I also wanted to point out that Carnie Wilson lost weight VERY fast due to the surgery.

That is true about C.W. Thanks for your response.

I am not losing anything right now because of my pregnancy. But like you, I want to live to see my children grow up. I don't want to die young and have dh remarry and have them call someone else mommy. *And* I don't want them to be embarrassed by their big, old mommy! KWIM?
