    I have the same sort of issues, I have a lot of extra skin in my middle, that even after years hasn't gone away. I do like the way my face looks when I'm heavier, and when I lost weight I got wrinkles on my face--I feel like if my face were rounder, they'd go away. I feel much better than when I was quite heavy, so it makes it worth it, but it's still really frustrating sometimes.

    Fill out that saggy skin with muscle. Ladies, you need to lift weights

    Even if you haven't had kids, if you've lost a lot of weight, you're probably not going to fill in the extra skin around your hips and waist with muscle. Arms and legs maybe, but not the midsection.

    But seriously I am developing a six pack under my loose skin...I check it out all the time, while holding my skin up!!! lol!

    I had something similar for a while, extra skin and viable abs, it looked really weird on me.
