How do you avoid excess skin during weight loss, my thighs are very big, How much do you have to work out to avoid excess skin

That all depends on your age, skin elasticity, and the amount of weight you have to lose. Even if you're young, if you have a huge amount to lose, you could still have lose skin. Unfortunately no one can really predict that.

btw- you should fill out your profile so we can better answer your question.

Not sure how to update my profile, I'll continue to look into it. Thanks so much. I added info to my signature

Oh here-

See your picture on the very top right of your screen? Click that, it'll go to your profile. Then, click the edit profile button. Next go to the "my surgery" tab and you can enter your info there

The excess skin question is one that even the experts cannot answer because our bodies all behave in their own way. I was worried about it initially but quickly realised that I would rather live healthily with excess skin (and the option of surgery to remove it down the track) than to live a shortened, unhealthy life as a morbidly obese person. With a 63kg weight loss so far, I am loving the healthier lifestyle and am not terribly fussed (yet) about my excess skin.

I agree!! Congrats on your weight loss!!! :0)
