There's lots of arguments about loose skin, my advise is to join a gym, workout, eat lots of protein and lot lose too fast to make it not be an issue. Just remember it took years for your skin to stretch out that far, it's extremely resilient but without surgery you should expect to see optimum skin results 1-2 years after weightloss, your skin WILL go back to it's normal state without surgery. From your pic it looks like you're more thick than flabby, (I could be wrong) but I would work out and build muscle, that's what burns the fat and helps keep the skin tight.
