Lost some belly fat/but I'm flabby now!

Options
Anyone know how to tighten the skin? It's not simply "elasticity" it's just loose skin....

I've heard up the ab work outs...and I get that building muscle will stretch out the skin a bit....And I WILL.

BUT, its not going to be enough for all of it lol...

ANYWAY, any suggestions?

    Uh, building muscle won't stretch out the skin.. Muscle is smaller and denser than fat, so if anything it will look smaller and not bigger.

    Also I don't think that you can tighten skin without plastic surgery... so much of that is genetics, which you can't change. You can try to build more muscle and see what happens, but some of that may never go away without plastic surgery.
