| 0:00.0 | This is Primal Potential and I am your host, Elizabeth Menden. |
| 0:06.6 | Through education, motivation, and implementation, we will bridge the gap between knowing and |
| 0:13.7 | doing so we can master fat loss naturally and help you reach your highest potential. |
| 0:21.3 | Let's get started. |
| 0:24.7 | Hey, hey, are you ready for this? We are going to get real today. |
| 0:30.1 | And as you know by the title of this episode we are going to be talking about loose skin |
| 0:34.4 | and we're going to talk about some of the facts and some of the myths and then I'm going to share |
| 0:39.6 | my own personal experience with this, with loose skin, how I handled it, what I did do, what I |
| 0:46.5 | didn't do, and all the details. So just to kind of cut to the chase, well before I do that, |
| 0:53.1 | let me say this. I think most people worry too much about loose skin. I think fewer people truly |

| 1:42.3 | you know this already, this isn't like an admission, this is something I've talked about on the blog |
| 1:45.9 | and on social media. I did have loose skin around my abdomen and I did have surgery to |
| 1:53.1 | have it removed. So after we talk about all the facts, at the end I am going to tell you every |
| 1:58.7 | freaking detail about my own personal experience, my surgery, how much it cost, what the recovery was, |
| 2:06.4 | what my thoughts are in hindsight. So we are going to get into the details of my own personal |
