Advice on how to tighten that dreaded loose skin...



Recommended Posts

I have seen many awesome before and "after" pictures here on this site and as I am losing weight (down 50 now) what do you recommend to tighten my stomach area? I'm in my late 20s so I am hoping that I can bounce back, ha! I do have 4 kids- and one of those being a twin pregnancy. So, I am totallly ok with the stretch marks and slight saggy-ness, just wanting to try what I can to eliminate what I see in the mirror. (I'm still waiting for my brain to catch up to my progress!!)

Gain the weight back! JUST KIDDING! Lol. Exercise, time, and good hydration are the best advice that I can offer. I think a lot of people here share similar frustration with the excess skin. I think that's why many choose to have the skin removed.

I worry about the same thing but the way I see it I will be using push up bras and Spanx to support me. I also was thinking about those waist like belts you wear post pregnancy pregnancy to help w your back and get stuff to go back right, my mum wore one after her bypass and she lost well over 100+ lbs and she said it helped a lot. I hope someone answers this though.

I second the wrapping. Other than staying hydrated not sure there is much else.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
