  1. this is a really old post but I feel I have to respond! Two things that extremely helped some of my extreme weight loss buddies (and myself the first time I lost a bunch of weight...which I regained :3 ) is heavy weight-lifting/cardio and moisturizing with a blend of oils I made at home. For exercise, most of us completed the P90 dvd's (and a few other Beachbody DVD's). It's tiring but at the end you look so toned and pretty much all cellulite is eliminated/faded. One of my male friends (weighed 330 pounds, now around 180) got so BUFF...he has zero loose skin, except for a tiny patch under his belly. He no longer has mitties (male ti...you know >.>). I know I sound like a sleazy salesman but the oils really helped fade a lot of my scars and smooth out my skin. They didn't work miracles, and the scars/looseness weren't completely gone but this certainly helped a lot. For the oils I used a blend of Vitamin E oil, Cocoa Butter Oil, and (the most important) a lot of pure organic Emu Oil. I bought the first two oils at a grocery store and the Emu Oil online. Anyway it might not work for everyone, but I think it was amazing for both my skin and hair. It's a lot of hard work to constantly do the exercises and use the oils at least once a day, but you'll never get incredible results with minimal efforts. The sad truth is we'll always have loose skin (if we don't opt for surgery), but there are so many things we can do to make it look the absolute best it can be.

    Thanks a lot for sharing your experience with us, its sad but skin becomes non elastic at certain age.
