Dissapointment after major weight loss

Former_fat_woman

Was 138 kg (303 pounds) now down to generally 75-78kg (167 pounds). Using MFP for maintaining and better tracking of macros (needing more protein and less carbs) used to track manually in a note book but stopped tracking about 1 year ago. Dissapointmemt in the results,
Skin lost elasticity. Would like to lose more though don't want to set unrealistic expectations and am happy to maintain.

Some people will find their skin continues to tighten up for a couple of years after weight loss, so take good care of it and see what happens!

You might also want to consider strength training. Building muscles and strength can do some amazing things to your shape. These threads might give you some ideas:
