Woman Shares Honest Side Effect Of Weight Loss

Popular Instagrammer Rachel Graham has shared a side effect of weight loss we don’t normally see.

In a post shared to her 100,000 followers, Graham answered the question, ‘How did you avoid loose skin and stretch marks?’ with a very honest reply: She didn’t.

‘Its all there,’ wrote Graham who lost 90 lbs (40 kilograms). ‘High waisted bottoms have become my bff.’ 

The anxiety posting this is REAL. Taken a few minutes apart, flexing in the first. "How did you avoid loose skin and stretch marks?" Heyyyyy, I didn't! Its all there. High waisted bottoms have become my bff. Do I regret losing weight? Hellllll noooooo. NEVER. Not even a slightest thought. I am more FIT than I've ever been in my entire life. Happier. HEALTHIER. I'd be lying if I said my loose skin wasn't an insecurity of mine.. But I refuse to let it consume me. It doesn't hold me back like the weight used to. This stomach has grown two beautiful boys.. Has been through a 90lb+ gain and loss (100lb+ lost from my highest weight while pregnant!) Will you have loose skin after losing weight? I can't answer that for you, everyBODY is different. Will it be worth it, regardless? YES. Also for those who have asked.. I do plan to have surgery some day, but in the mean time I'm just working on self loooovvveeee. ❤️❤️❤️❤️ BE KINDDDD, I delete negativity ? (No itworks, creams, lotions, yada yada) #nofilter #stretchmarks

Despite the side-effect, Graham says she doesn’t regret losing weight. 

‘I am more FIT than I’ve ever been in my entire life. Happier. HEALTHIER,’ she said adding, ‘I’d be lying if I said my loose skin wasn’t an insecurity of mine.. But I refuse to let it consume me. It doesn’t hold me back like the weight used to.’

Hump dayyyy! Great workout this morning. Now making lunch, and then off for a walk with my boys. Hope you're all having a great week! Sorry my posts have been a bit slack, I haven't been feeling well since Sunday night.. Much better today though! "Not the same person, her hair is different!" ? Abouuuut a 70lb difference in these, of 90lb total!
