    Skin takes a lot longer to tighten up than it does to lose weight. Hydrate yourself with plenty of water every day and you'll be fine. You dont need expensive lotions and all that nonsense.

    I'm a lot older than you...the skin doesn't snap back like it used to, and that's ok. I still look better. And if I look better dressed than nekkid these days, that's ok too.

    I actually researched this the other day and what I found was three things that are recommended for tightening lose skin:
    1- Keep the skin moisturized with vitamin E
    2- Wear a corset or spanx-style undergarmet. It will help to tighten the skin quicker over time.
    3- Surgery was listed for MAJOR amounts of extra skin. Usually a physician will only suggest this if you have so much extra skin that it overlaps your bady causing rashes or worse.
