[quote=Anonymous]I've lost 70 and still have 20 to lose.  I'm 53. I did have loose skin on my upper arms, but the last 20 pounds I lost took 7 months, and I think that time of very slow weight loss allowed the skin to bounce back a bit.  I have hardly any loose skin on my arms now.

It remains to be seen if my belly will have loose skin.  I have that c section shelf anyway, and I don't see myself losing enough to lose that.

My boobs are fine.
My butt is fine (but that's exercise).

I do get cold more easily.
I still get my period like clockwork.
I do have more wrinkles on my face, but the fact it has slimmed down, I think, counteracts the new wrinkles.

My neck was flabby for a bit, but that has tightened up too.  Again, maybe because of the very slow weight loss these past 7 months.

The good:
blood pressure is great
I don't get an ache in my lower back when I walk for exercise.
My ankles don't hurt after 10,000 steps.   They don't hurt after 20,000 steps.
My resting heart rate fell about 15 beats a minute. 
I have been taking a cardio/strength class too.  So my muscles are stronger.  I have much better balance.

I'd like to say I sleep better, but I don't really. [/quote]
