Hi everybody!
So, after about two weeks of lurking SW, I have finally decided to post a newbie thread. I want to become an exotic dancer. Gotdammit, I'm a college student, and most college students are generally broke, but I just cannot work retail any more. The pay is too low- botom line: I got bills and fxcking $8.25 or less an hour is bullshit.
Here's where it get tricky, I've been overweight/obese for nearly all of my life. Last year, in an effort to alleviate the physical discomfort of being FATI became a raw/ vegan, began exercising regularly, and lost 80 pounds. Here it is a year later, I am still vegan and i've managed to keep the weight off for over a year. I eat well, but i'm a bit lazy (and busy as hell with the rest of my life) on the exercise, and only work out like 2x a week.
I dunno If anyone here has lost more than fifty pounds in one go, but I have been left with nasty, nasty, nasty pockets of sagging stretched out skin on my belly, my breasts, arms and thighs. I don't know what it is, but even when i was heavier I never had a problem attracting men, and since i lost the weight I damn near have to bat motherfxckers off my booty- and we're talking about men of every possible type! I dont feel like my body is unattractive naked, and all of my lovers have been rather vocal about how sexy i am in the buff, but I feel like I look a little too stretched out in some places. I am still about 20 pounds above my ideal weight, My waist hip ratio is perfect, and my bra size is 36 D. I wear a solid size 16, athough I actually look more like a size 12 from the front because I have the mother of all donks (my titties disappeared, but my booty stayed the same size. WTF?) I am very "jiggly" which i don't think is a bad thing if I'm to become a stripper, and the only areas of my body i have problems with are the above ones. The model in this video has the same body shape as me, except imagine an ugly hangy pooch on her belly and wobbily arms.
Here's where the newbieness starts: OMGBBQWTF am i going to do about this sagging skin? I do not have the money for surgery (yet, if i begin dancing the first thing i'm gonna do is save up for a tummy tuck or a body lift), but i'v been eyeballing THIS cream made by LUSH. IDK if it will work, but i love lush and their products generally do what they say. Also, $25 bucks compared to $6k sounds like a reasonable investment for something that may not be cut out for me. When I get the cream I will be sure to let you all know what my experience with it is.
I apologize for such a wordy post (I'm an English major,) and I probably should have posted this topic in the body forum. But I just wanted to say hi, share my story, and gain valuable information/insight about my newly chosen profession and my body. Aside from the cream, do any of you gals have any suggestions on what i can do to tone/tighten my loose skin?
Thanks,
BB

ugh. Know that there ARE girls out there that have lost massive amounts of weight quickly and are having to endure the terrible effects of losing the weight. Yes, it's great we lost it...it's just what we have to put up afterwards is the kicker.
Anyway, for stretch marks I use this oil that comes in a white box made by Palmer's Stretch Mark line. It actually says on the box "Palmer's Stretch Mark Oil". it comes in a clear flip top squirt bottle. It has worked WONDERS...and I mean WONDERS.
ALTHOUGH it does not tighten skin. My inner thighs are kind of jiggly because I think of A. the fat and B. loose skin. It is pretty embarrassing BUT I just act like it's not a big deal. lol I don't pay my healing stretch marks and loose skin on my inner thighs any mind because I know that dancing will tighten that skin up and the stretch marks will go away. yay 
It pains me to stand at a register for $7.75 an hour when I know I could be making more. I am fucking done with Potbelly.
