I get it. All people are different; we gain differently and we lose differently.

But as a general question- I am 5 ft 3/4 in and I currently weigh 206 (pre-op started at 216) and I am 26 years old...figuring that in again as the general population, should be skin bounce back or do you think I will have alot of sag?

Well To be honest it is a question only for each person. It depends alot on age and how fast your skin reacts to the weight loss. Thats why with the band you lose it at a steady pace so it gives your body to keep up with the changes. I was banded May 6th and to date lost 62 lbs and the only bad sagging I have is my arms. Hate my arms. I work out 5 days a week with just cardio for 45 mins. I workout the other two days with a personal trainer. I ask her all the time when is this gonna go back. She said it could take up to two years. GREAT. LOL But then I think in my head. It took me 18 years to get the weight why would I think my body is giong to come back in just months. LOL. It will being younger it may be faster. I am 38 and it is coming around just slow. Whats bad is I want it now and my husband has to reel me back into reality. He is so supportive. You will be great. Just take it day to day. I wish you all the best.

I am 63, my skin is saggy, but not too bad. At my heaviest I was 255. I am now 145. I look best in clothes, but I can wear dresses above my knees and look good, too! I think that being your young age, and weight, if you work out, some, you shouldn't have saggy skin. Karen
