Comparison is the thief of joy. Don't compare yourself to other people -- compare yourself to who you were back when you were 40kg heavier. I've also lost a massive amount of weight and have loose skin. Even though I have far more loose skin than you do, it truly doesn't bother me, unlike my thinning hairline which bothers me more than I care to admit... ๐
Thank you! That's a good way to think about oneself. I'm "optimizing" my body and that's the last negative part that I could improve. Compared to myself, I've achieved so much!
