Ok I have read that losing the weight naturaly and at a slow pace decreases the chances of having loose skin.
I have heard that Skin firming lotions are recommended to be used during the weightloss journey..
and that Omega 3 pills help skin elasticity...

Has anyone out there tried something that seems to work. ?

    I bought a new product from Nivea. I haven't tried it yet. Not sure if I should have wasted my money ($12.) I think it might help out in a very small way. The greatest way is loosing fat by exercise and low fat diet. Doesn't always guarantee the results of a supermodel look, but at least is something to improve your beauty.

    Strength train. Building muscle will fill in a bit of the gap that fat loss has created. And don't worry about having a "bodybuilder" look...women can't have male muscle size simply because of genetics. Estrogen prevents women from gaining that mannish build. So, lifting heavy will maximize results and give better definition and tone to your muscles.

    skin firming lotions are bogus. if they tighten, its a temporary thing. if you are extremely obese, you'll have loose skin no matter what.

    if you have those normal granny arms we all tend to have, its because we still have fat left to lose and not enough muscle mass underneath.

    you need to build muscle and lose fat. but unfortunately you cant do this at the same time.
