Loose skin acknowledgement

This has been a week of marathon doctor's appointments...three of them! This morning I had two back to back...really fun. Of course this means two times of having my blood pressure taken, temperature and being weighed (the most dreadful part of ANY doctor's appointment). Everyone knows I struggle with my weight...no surprise for my friends and family or for my doctors...they all know. Of course I am struggling now to try to lose a few pounds and they won't come off...no matter how much I exercise or how little I eat. I talked to one of my doctor's about this and she said that age, changing metabolism, yada yada all might be working against me here. She also asked me if I had thought about my extra skin being the cause of my weight issues now...of course while she was saying this she was grabbing the part underneath her arm where I have unrelenting arm wings. I know I have skin issues. I think most if not all people who lose in excess of 175 lbs have loose skin, right? I just didn't need the visual of the arm wing grabbing (especially since I think my MAJOR skin issue is in my torso and thighs). So, even though I know she doesn't read my blog, I would like to say a big THANK YOU to my wonderful doctor for preventing me from comfortably wearing sleeveless tops and dresses for the remainder of the warm weather. ;)
