My Greatest Fear...

When it comes to loosing weight I have a long way to go! I'm down almost 25lbs, but am look at loosing well over 100 before I reach my goal. My greatest fear as the numbers start the fall and the fat starts to dwindle... Loose skin :(

I know it's a common problem and I'm honestly a little terrified that I will all flabby! I'm 22 and in otherwise good health. For those of you who have been there or made your goal after loosing a lot; did this happen to you? Any tips? I'm not into the whole surgery answer and neither is my bank account!

    Exercise is the answer. Even at my ripe old age of 66, exercise has tightened lots of that loose flapping stuff. Yeah I still have bat wings and a small flap of skin in the belly area but you would not believe how much of it has tightened up since I started losing. Just keep working out and as young as you are, most of it will go away. I promise you. I lost 128 pounds and a few ounces so far so trust me, you have nothing to fear.
