Lost 100 lbs...Best way to deal with what's left.

Hi, this is my first post on here. I recently finished up hitting my goal of 100 lbs. lost (dropping from 286 to 186). My goal is to stay in the mid-180 lb range. My problem is that although I've hit my goal, I don't look the way I want to. I generally do at least 30 minutes of cardio and 30 minutes of weight training at least 3 days a week. I'm becoming discouraged by not seeing results as quickly as I was when the weight was coming off. Should I continue this routine and give it time? Or does someone out there have good suggestions on the most efficient way to tone up loose skin?

Thanks!

    Loose skin can take a while to catch up some have even reported 1-2 years. Don't be discouraged by that. Continue your weight training, and your body will keep changing. It doesn't happen quickly so don't get discouraged.
    You've done a geat job, and have accomplished so much!

    OK, thanks for the advice. I'll just try and be patient with it.
