I'm sorry if this is a repeat question but I've read a lot here about extra skin after weight loss. Is there anything you can do about it or could someone who has lost a lot of weight please comment on how it affects your body shape/size? I'm sure when I get to my goal weight, I'll be in that boat. Thanks
I was told that the Natura company (who makes the supplements, etc) has a liquid collagen. I'll ask my coach when I see her next week as she's on vacation right now.
could I add Knox (flavorless jello powder with no other ingredients) to my shakes and stuff to increase my collagen intake or is that not the same kind?
That sounds like a good solution. It must be the same thing.
Just following up on this. So yes, Natura does indeed make a raspberry flavoured liquid collagen. My coach ordered it for me and I've been taking it for about a week now.
If anyone wants it and can't get it from their coach I'm happy to buy and ship it to you for you if you'd like? It's about $34 for the bottle. But again, do talk to your coach because it does exist!!
i dont have anything on it im from sask but ive looked everywhere here for it and nobody sells it and ive searched the web for two days and cant find it anywhere ...a friend has just told me about it i dont have a coach so im unable to get someone to order it if i could just find where to order it from
OMGosh..you look fabulous! I have my first appointment at Ideal Protein tomorrow and I'm so excited! After reading all the success stories on here and seeing the pictures, I can't wait to get started. I will have to bite the bullet and actually get in front of the camera for a change, just so I will have something to compare the pictures to when I get slim.
Congratulations again, you are such an inspiration!
First off, IPDivaJen - you look fantastic! Congrats on your losses so far and I can't wait to see your transformation when you hit goal.
I'm very concerned about loose skin as well. I lost 100+ pounds a few years ago and had no skin issues, but am a little worried about it this time. I'm relatively young, so I hope that works in my favor. I'm also planning on taking collagen supplements (found some on Amazon). Crossing my fingers!
When i was 23, i lost 85lbs and had no extra skin whatsoever anywhere..now..15 years and 3 kids later and starting from a much heavier weight, i do have quite a bit..the inner thigh area is what bothers me the most cause i can't wear shorts or dresses (even if they're lower than the excess skin) i feel like I "giggle" too much. Tummy is bad too but can easily be covered.
Hello there,
You mentioned you have extra skin, but in your picture, I see you look perfect! I can't wait to see you in person

LOL trust me, clothes can be deceiving...underneat i look like an 120 year old wrinkled bag of skin... My arms don't look bad cause they're down..as long as i don't bring them up, you won't get hit by my mega bat wings, lol.
could I add Knox (flavorless jello powder with no other ingredients) to my shakes and stuff to increase my collagen intake or is that not the same kind?
I would be interested to know this too. Great idea.
