Suddenly insecure about skin

I'm 2.5 years PO and beyond thrilled to be maintaining a 135 lb weight loss for 2 years now. Last summer and the summer before I was confident in my skin and wore bikinis with excitement. This summer I find myself being more and more bothered by my loose skin. I would 100% have it this way than the way it was before. I'm trying to regain that nonchalant confidence. Can anyone else relate?

NSV: I ran a 5k with my son

I'm 2.5 years PO.

My children are one of my biggest motivators in this whole journey. I want to be able to keep up with them, and hopefully be around for them for a long time. Yesterday my oldest son and I ran a 5k. My goal was 35 minutes and I made it in 29:49. My son was 50 seconds faster than me 🤣 I had to pinch myself. The fact that this is now my reality and I can do this with my children...priceless.

Anyone else bruise very easily post op? (NSFW for picture of bruise)

I'm 2.5 years PO and maintaining 135 lb weight loss. Since surgery, I bruise so so easily. My bloodwork is all healthy, and I'm not really concerned, I'm just curious if anyone else has it too. The bruise in this picture came after I scratched at a mosquito bite. So weird.

(Also PO, I developed hypotension and what I think is Reynaud's. Anyone else?)
