FishingNurse 1,211 Posted April 12, 2012 I did, it goes in phases. I would notice I would stall after a large loss, then the skin improves, then I would lose more weight, notice some sagginess-- then the skin improves. In total I have almost zero loose skin at this point and I am almost to goal!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Caradina 65 Posted April 12, 2012 It might go down. I lost around 50 lbs on my own a few years back and had extra skin on my very upper inner thighs, lower stomach area, and some little "batwings". They all tightened up, but it took a couple of months. I used firming lotions religiously, twice a day as well as dry brushing my skin every night. Now that I gained it all back plus more and now have 120 lbs to lose, I'm hoping it won't be too bad once I get there, but I'm already back on my skin routine.

frumpynomore 204 Posted April 12, 2012 I'm 56 lbs down and am noticing a LOT of loose skin! I am a member of a gym and exercise regularly so I'm hoping to firm some of it up....if it doesn't....I'd rather be skinny with loose skin than fat and fluffy! 3 hope2Bfitand40, mocha and TheSkinnyCow73 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
