Since my surgery, I've lost 40 lbs and so far (thank God), no saggy skin. But I am very concerned about this becoming a problem as I lose more weight. I mentioned this to my doctor and they recommended three things: Drink LOTS of water, Walk & Moisturize your body DAILY. Well... I have found an amazing product that can help with the third item. It's called Body Dew Bath Spray. It is an awesome smelling spray that makes baby oil obsolete! You know how you put baby oil on after a shower and you rub and rub and it never seems to soak into your skin? Then you end up with an oily mess on your clothes? Body Dew Spray does NOT do that. It actually SOAKS into your skin because it's made from Carnation oil. The molecules in Carnation oil are much smaller than those of regular baby oil therefore allowing it to penetrate the skin and not just sit on top. If anyone is interested, or want further info., please PM me! I just LOVE this stuff. Happy moisturizing! :clap2:

The skin is the largest organ in the body and the best way to keep it from sagging is to keep yourself well hydrated. Thanks for the tip!

I've lost 73 pounds and hydrate my body on a daily basis. I have loose skin on my inner thighs and a bit on my belly. There are so many things that contribute to whether or not you'll have loose skin - genetics, how long you've been heavy, how heavy you are prior to surgery, skin elasticity, etc.

I imagine I'll have a thigh lift at some point. If other things are needed, I'm sure I'll have them done as well. However, I'm going to wait until I get closer to my goal weight before I start making appointments to see a plastic surgeon.

Thanks for the tips.

My doc suggested using radio frequency to tighten the skin if there isn't too much loose skin. It's something like Thermage, the non-surgical facelift.
