    Most will tell you, good old fashion crunches. Personally, I like using wateraerobics. Specificly, put arms out on side of pool and lift legs to top of water. Much safter and easier on this old body.

    P90X Ab Ripper. 15 minutes long.... but that's all you will need. :)

    I agree! It will tighten up your abs but not your skin. If you look anything like I do (after having 5 kids), plastic surgery is the only solution for saggy skin. But your muscles will be nice and firm with P90X Ab Ripper!

    I wholeheartedly endorse this suggestion. It's 15 minutes of hell, but doing it regularly will give results!

    It looks interesting to try but I think its like anything else I've tried. Baby steps seems to be my motto. I gained over 80 lbs when I was pregnant with my twins and now that I'm trying to lose weight I'm also worried about the sagging skin that will be there afterwards. On another site I read that in order of the skin to get tightened you have to lower your fat intake way back. That's the hardest part of my diet because I find the fat the hardest thing to cut out.
