    I lost over 200 pounds and had a ton of extra skin. I exercised, moisturized, lifted weights, drank a ton of water - that skin was NEVER going to snap back. I just had surgery to have it removed. The doc removed 7 pounds of skin.

    You can see the pics on my blog jenhudsonmosher.blogspot.com

    You are amazing! I really enjoyed reading your blog and I love your attitude - very inspirational :)

    Unfortunately, it is genetics. No amount of lotion is going to cure loose skin if your skin doesn't have that natural elasticity. I lost 70 lbs. Cocoa butter every day didn't stop my stretch marks during pregnancy, and it doesn't stop my belly from hanging over my jeans. :/ My only option is a tummy tuck.
