Anyone trying any home remedies for tightening loose skin.. Ha... Given up on the husband winning the lottery so I can have p,attic surgery.. Trying the old egg white on e face and neck.. I must admit as its drying it does feel tighter lol.. Even put it on my upper arms. Wonder how many eggs it would take for my whole body :-(

Well on the fish oil issue you can break those open and spread it on food. That la what I do for my dogs.

My remedy has been good ole hard work in the gym. It has taken care of a lot of loose skin. It has not taken care of my boobs however. Although I am fairly certain egg whites and fish oil can not help them either! Only a surgeon or support bras can help them. They have officially gone south for the winter and it is still summer here in Texas!

I'm 48, and I breastfed twins for over a year....the girls are a lost cause. Thankfully, my husband just want me to get healthy.

I spoke to several surgeon and they all said no e exercise or miracle cream will get your skin back to how it was and who ever said it will its a liar. The only option is plastic surgery.

I will however attempt to go back to exercise simply cuz I know I will feel good inside. Kids will be in school so I have all the time in the world to maybe attempt something with my arms. Saggy will be there but maybe a little muscle won't be a bad idea after all.

I was told to take fish oil because it helps with skins elasticity.

I don't know if it's the same, similar, or totally different but check out krill oil. The capsules are pretty small.
