I did, it goes in phases. I would notice I would stall after a large loss, then the skin improves, then I would lose more weight, notice some sagginess-- then the skin improves. In total I have almost zero loose skin at this point and I am almost to goal!!

It might go down. I lost around 50 lbs on my own a few years back and had extra skin on my very upper inner thighs, lower stomach area, and some little "batwings". They all tightened up, but it took a couple of months. I used firming lotions religiously, twice a day as well as dry brushing my skin every night. Now that I gained it all back plus more and now have 120 lbs to lose, I'm hoping it won't be too bad once I get there, but I'm already back on my skin routine.
