** Graphic Display of loose skin around my stomach near the end — Viewers may want to ensure a bag is available **
Today’s episode I deal with the one of the most common questions people ask me after hearing of my 200 pound weight loss. That is, “do you have much problems with loose skin?” In the end, I have to admit that I do have a bit of loose skin (I affectionately & sometime not so affectionately my “SharPei”) around my torso and legs, but it could be much worse. I could have the sheets of skin some dieters (more often low Calorie big losers) have or even worse be my original weight still living in fear of loose skin. There are times that I actually like my stretchmarks as they server as reminders of what might be if I think I can lax up. It also serves as a talking point like my pathetic driver’s license does for people looking for hope, but most days I am just thankful for shirts.
There are other things that are claimed to help, but I have not tried. Cocoa Butter and Mederma are both used by pregnant women to ease the appearance of stretchmarks. Additionally, I believe the content of this Diet helps in maintaining the elasticity due to protein and fat being featured. The body does not cannibalize its own resources like on other diets, and many report their skin looks as good and clear as it ever had. Good skin health implies good skin elasticity to respond to the weight loss as well.
One final theory about loose skin:

To summarize the above link, there is no problem with loose skin, just a body fat percentage problem. I am at 11-12% body fat, so maybe I need to drop another 2-3 percent yet too. In either case, plastic surgery may be for some people, but it’s not for me.

Obesiplan is America’s #1 weight solution. In a society that gets fatter every year, thin people are becoming less and less common. Obesiplan is simply designed to give thin people a chance to fit in with everyone else. Infomercials for weight loss programs have it all wrong, its time for the few thin Americans left to jump on the bandwagon and start Obesiplan today for a fatter tomorrow!

(Don’t worry, no one ever clicks on that and follows me, so you don’t have to either. I just put it up there for my own personal enjoyment).
Now for the real truth on Obesiplan. I have gained some weight in the past year and it makes me so angry! I’ve seen weight loss programs, but very few of them work. I always thought it would be funny to do an infomercial parody on weight loss that encourages weight gain instead. So here it is! I hope you enjoy!

There is no such thing as “6-pack abs fast”. You cant buy 6-pack abs from an infomercial or get them from a bottle. Getting 6-pack abs is simple but takes alot of work – eat less and exercise more. This video shows you how to do both.
Anyone can be healthier, have more energy, sleep better, and feel better about themselves through bodybuilding. Bodybuilding doesn’t have to be expensive or take a lot of time, gyms are great but home workouts can save you time and money. A cheap dumbbell set from a garage sale or walmart is all it takes to get started with your home workouts.
For more information on home workouts, please see my free website (no advertising either):

Overweight and obese youth are frequently teased, tormented, and victimized because of their weight. Weight-based teasing and stigma (also called ‘weight bias’) can have a detrimental impact on both emotional well-being and physical health. The Rudd Center for Food Policy and Obesity at Yale University (http://www.yaleruddcenter.org/) has released this new video to help parents and teachers understand the severity and impacts of weight bias in school and at home and
to present strategies to help combat this rapidly growing problem for overweight teens and pre-adolescents. This video, hosted by celebrity and activist Emme and featuring Rudd Center experts including Dr. Rebecca Puhl and Dr. Kelly Brownell, uses expert commentary and dramatic representation to address the obstacles that overweight and obese youth encounter with weight bias.
