Anyone NOT get loose skin after 90 pounds of weight loss ?

How did you do it .... Kill yourself working out with weights ?

Any chance some people might not get the Loose skin problem ?

Just can't imagine having to get a surgery to remove it all when the time comes ... Trying to avoid it.

Anyone with experience here ?

Skin issues/results depend on age, amount of weight lost and the amount of time being overweight. The younger you are when losing weight, the better the results will be. People touting special creams and other amazing items are usually fooling themselves (and those they sucker into buying such items). Once your body has been abused by being overweight for extreme amounts of time, it just cannot bounce back. That is just reality.

Yes! Zero loose skin. 92 pounds to be exact. But my goal weight was very modest. I'm a size 10-12, medium, some larges. But I'm thrilled to be average. I didn't work out at all in my weight loss stage either.... I am working on it now for health reasons.

Did you work out like and woman with weights ?

I haven't lost 90, but have lost 60lbs in 6 months and am about 25lbs from goal. I don't have very much loose skin at all, but I notice that when I am in a stall for a little bit, that seems to be when the inches drop and my skin tightens up a bit. So, I'm ok with the slower loss than some because everything seems to tighten up in between. I am working out with barbells and bands, but only at home and not at a gym. Just when I get home at night, nothing major.
