You can do things to firm up your skin but if it's really just skin, it's hard to get rid of. Keep exercising and use a firming lotion (pref. one with copper) on your skin to tone it up.

Reply:No. Rapid weight loss or major weight loss (without exercise) causes fat beneath the cutaneous layer of the skin to dissipate, but the "stretching" that occurred to accomodate that fat causes the sagging, excess skin. Unfortunately, it will need to be removed via many surgical and cosmetic surgical procedures. True, skin is more supple at your age, but the years of obesity and the skin being stretched for so long removes that suppleness. If you have had gastric bypass surgery, this should have been discussed pre-operatively. You need to make an appt with your physician to obtain a referral. Good luck

Reply:I support Debbie's answer. Remember that if surgery becomes the route you want to take, please shop the procedure and take advantage of consumerism to get the best buy. Did I spell consumerism correctly?
