I'm 59 year old grandma that has lost about 55. Far from finished, but how do you hide the loose skin? Surgery isn't an option...

    I'm lucky that mine tucks into my pants. You might want to try out some shapewear or snug under shirts/compression wear.

    Some of it goes under clothes - but after 120 lb loss with very poor quality skin and no elasticity, I have a lot of loose skin under my arms and thighs. I have learned to love and respect my body for what it has accomplished, and not hide behind it. I wear tanks all the time, bat wings and all. It was very tough at first, but it's been life changing to let go :)

    Spanx or other brand might help.

    Hide loose skin? Wear clothes. Sorry.
