I'm 53 and down from a size 26/28 to a 10.
Unfortunately, I reckon my skin is still probably a 22/24.
Na! - work out like a bandit but my body's like a train wreck. But hey! - it's nothing that a pair of Spanx and a nice bra doesn't support and in clothes, it's no problem.
I wouldn't trade this in for being puffy again, that's for sure.
