Hi everyone :)

I'm just curious to know about how peoples bodies have been affected after weight loss eg loose/stretched skin.

I am concentrating on making sure my weight loss is gradual but I am still worried I am going to need plastic surgery afterwards to fix the damage that exercise and diet can not change. I am 6'1 and my biggest weight was 100 kilos, as of this moment in time i am 93 kilos.

Is there anyone out there who can speak about experience?

Thanks so much

    I lost 70 lbs over about 2 years - My lower stomach, upper arms, and inner thighs had some loose skin - started using Palmers firming lotion after major exfoliating in the shower. Doing that combined with drinking lots of water and strength training to build muscle and things are starting to firm up now. I have to say the most important thing was building muscle. I'm on my last 15ish pounds and trying to lose it slowly as possible to give my skin a chance to keep up. Hope this helps!
