Loose skin.

Do you guys have problems with it too?
I'm 5'1 and I use to weigh 150 pounds. Now I weigh 110 and jeezus do I have loose skin.
Everything else is fine and firm but why are the abs the hardest to get toned?
I tried lotions and right now i'm trying Nivea Firming Lotion due to my ignorance.
Any advice?
I understand surgery might be the only option but i like to think positive.
But when I think about it, it doesn't bother me as much. It shows that once i went down the bad road and now, i'm at a healthy roadway. If that made sense.

You will be fine. 40 pounds really isn't significant enough to have left you with loose skin. You probably are just carrying some more body fat in that area. Keep working on building up your muscle, and your skin will follow suit. Trust me- I lost 140 pounds, I am well versed in loose skin. Also, you look pretty young, your skin should bounce back just fine. Still, moisturizing is always a good idea anyway. No lotion will tone skin, but keeping it nourished helps keep it healthy in general.0

I hear exfoliating and moisturing at the same time can spur the skin into bouncing back0
