I have lost 60 pounds, kind of fast coming off at first between giving up sodas and bread. I do treadmill and cardio and wanted to know what else I could do to help tightening up the loose skin that is now sagging.

Thanks

    Heavy weights are your friend.

    Weights won't do anything for sagging skin.

    People tend to lose weight a lot faster than their skin can react. I believe it usually takes about two years to snap back into shape (though the length of time depends on a lot of factors from age, to diet, to sun exposure, etc. )

    Staying hydrated and eating a protein-rich diet will help. :)
