Question: Does you skin get THICKER as you lose weight?

[Rootman 1,101]

I've been giving myself a prescription injection every 2 weeks for like 8 months now, I've noticed that I have more problem poking through the skin now, contrary to "normal" advice I found that slowly inserting the needle is less painful for me than jabbing it in quickly. Now when I do this I can't break the skin very easily, I now have the jab through - which just about puts me on the ceiling!

So does the skin draw up and get thicker? I suppose it makes sense it would strech and get thinner as we gain weight too.
