I lost 7 lbs in two weeks and I feel like I don't look as tight. I can see the loss with my clothes on but undressed I feel like I look for flabby. I am 5'2 in less than a year I lost 20 lbs overall. Gained some back took some off. Started at 152 currently 132 with a goal of 115-120. I'm only 10 lbs away from 120 but afraid I will look even more flabby :/

    Are you exercising or are you losing the weight through diet alone?

    A few potential reasons.

    One, your skin hasn't had enough time to tighten up yet. Nothing you can really do about that, it just takes time.

    Two, if you are losing through diet, your skin is only really going to look tight if their is muscle underneath for it to get tight around. If their isn't, you need to start taking steps to add some.
