Anyone have good suggestions about tightening up loose tummy skin?!?! I'm not sure what direction to go!! HELP!!!

I am 12 days post op and I am already doing what I can. I wont be able to do ab work for a while, but meanwhile Im using a skin firming lotion. I have also seen a lot of work outs on Pintrest. Check it out!

Everything on me is starting to droop. I picked up the Jillian Michaels Kickboxing dvd and started 3 days ago. Hopefully it helps. I have a friend who had the surgery a year and a half ago and she said there are definitely times when your skin doesn't keep up with your weight loss. Hopefully it catches up!

Hi, what is a good skin firming lotion? Also, did you wait til all the stitches heal up first?

I would definitely wait till you are healed up!! I use Palmers coco butter oil and something called Sexy Belly from a website called Carols Daughter.

I use Palmers firming butter all over my body. My incisions have healed except for one, which I do not even go near with lotion. Up to now Im happy with it in terms of price, smell, and texture but its to soon for me to testify on the firming part.

Hello i am 17 days post operation no abs workout for now but I do use the Nivea goodbye cellulite on my tomy hips and arms

Skin firming lotions we have Cashmere body butter bath and body works this is my fave, Jürgens firming lotion found in any Walmart philosophy amazing grace body butter cost 49/60$ 2nd fave here but man it's costly. Ab workouts we have the AB ripper X P90X series best ab workout ever . After we do all that fun stuff we book a ap to get a tummy tuck coz I know I need one lmao

In addition to various rubs and lotions, exercises that work the core (abs, obliques, etc) can work as well. I know I have really picked up the pace the past year with my squats, planks and deadlifts at the gym and it has helped my torso a good bit. I've really not had any problem with loose skin. My belly was where I was expecting to have problems with it if I did, and I think that doing lifts that engage those various core muscle have really helped fill in my tummy and harden that part of my body a lot. I guess the other thing that really helps is being young and having skin that is elastic and bounces back easily....which I don't have age on my side. So I'll just stick to the lifting.
