I want to tighten up my belly after I've lost weight. I'm now at my goal weight just want to tighten up in a few places. Does anyone have any good ideas?

Weight training can help build muscle in that area. Making your skin appear firmer. That and maybe giving some time for any kind of tightening to happen on its own are the most proactive things I can think of that don't involve surgery. Congrats on reaching your goals!1

Moderate calorie deficit, good lifting program, adequate protein (~.6-.8g per lb of weight) and patience. Below is a good list of lifting routines if you need one.
