So you want to lose weight? If you are concerned because of your looks you might want to think again. One of the results of losing weight is wrinkles.
You see, your skin has adjusted to accommodate your mass. You might even have some stretch marks to prove it. When you get rid of the stuffing, all that extra skin does not go away. Walla, wrinkles. This is even more true when you get older. Many people shed mass when they get older, that is why they become prune like.
I have lost weight. I have gained wrinkles. Many of them are in places that you don’t have to see but they are still there.
Of course, if you are losing weight for health reasons the wrinkles are secondary, or should be. Such is the case for me. I can deal with a few wrinkles if it means I don’t need to pop pills or give myself shots.
You need to weigh your priorities, not just you body.
