    Is it Tummy Fat or Loose Skin?

    If your tummy area is thicker than a few millimeters, there is residual body fat. the skin will appear loose and drape-y. Skin that fills your hand when you squeeze it isn’t just skin. Then that's some good news. Which means, with patience, you will most likely be able to tone up that area with strength training. But I really mean with patience. Depending on how much you have, it could take a year or so.

    If your tummy area is paper thin, closer to the thickness of your eyelid or the back of your hand than you are looking at loose skin. In that case, I recommend making an appointment with your doctor to see what their opinion is, and what your options are.

    I hope this helps!

    Good luck
