Skin Prep

[merika0821 7]

I was just wondering if anyone prepped your skin for weight loss. I want to do something to prevent too much loose skin but not sure what.

I am not aware of anything that reliably works. You can start toning exercises as soon as you are able, but other than that is it mostly genetics.

depends on the person

how elastic is their skin, their genes, the amount of weight one needs to lose..as grammy said, toning will help but if its too saggy, you can always have skin removal surgery....i am ok with having saggy skin..anything is better than being over 300 pounds again...i will risk it

Nothing will help loose skin if you are going to get it. No cream, exercise, tv gimmic will help with lose skin. The only thing that will help if you get it is cosmetic surgery or compression garments.

I went for the skin removal consult and the down time was to long and to costly. I found out about body Wraps and tried them. I am so glad I did too. No surgery in my future. I have went from a size 12 to a easy 8 now. I still have a little to go to be totally flat in the stomach but it won't be long

I agree with the other ladies. It's all dependent on how much weight you have to lose and how long you've been carrying it, genetics, and skin elasticity.

I have a lot of loose skin and will be having a Tummy Tuck this spring, however I can honestly say I'll take the excess skin over the excess fat any day. I can hide the skin, I couldn't hide the fat.

Thanks everyone. I've lost weight before and I had a bit of loose skin from where I was pregnant and my skin stretched and I'm afraid this time it's going to be way worse partly because I'm bigger and bad genes. But thanks for everyone's opinion.
