September 26, 201312 yr Many of you post before and after pics .... How did you deal with excess skin ? Going from a size 20 to a size 10 is a difference . Is it just working out during the week or a combination of diet and exercise ? I'm a little worried
September 26, 201312 yr I think it has a lot to do with your skins elactisity (sp?) I have two friends that both lost over 150 pounds rapidly. One friend, the older one by 10 years has no excess skin. My other friend is having a hard hard time with the extra skin and has been diligent at the gym since she started her journey.
September 26, 201312 yr Im 43, started in a TIGHT size 18 and am now in a size 10 pants/size medium top and hve a little excess skin, nothing to get all crazy about. I do take rigorous hot yoga classes a few times a week so I think that helped. What also helped me A LOT was dry brushing. Look it up on Pinterest or Google it. Between the strengthening of yoga and the dry brushing, its been tolerable.
September 26, 201312 yr I just looked at mine closely today and it's not good. I feel like I have loose skin EVERYWHERE. I'm like a deflated balloon.

Im never going to be a super model and I look a heck of a lot better with clothes on but saggy boobs or not, Im happy as a kid in a candy store being able to wear a (loose) size 10. But without my glasses on, Im friggin HOT lol.

September 26, 201312 yr I'm not convinced that exercise does much for loose skin!!! My legs and lower abdomen are horrible!

I wonder if it truley works
September 26, 201312 yr I dry brush and moisturize like crazy. Got a trainer and am working on strength training as well. I'm still in the early stages of my weight loss journey but I hope it works
September 26, 201312 yr I think it takes a year or so for the skin to contract as far as it's going to. After that, live with it or surgery.
September 27, 201312 yr I looked up dry brushing on you tube…very interesting. Supposed to work for cellulite and excessive skin. I wonder if it truley works Im not exaggerating when I say this, my 'cheese' on my butt and thighs has disappeared probably more than 50 percent since I started dry brushing about 6 months ago. My skin is so soft now and I dont get weird dry Patches like I used to. Its cheap, its fast and even if its in my head, it works for me. Why not try it? It cant hurt, plus it helps with circulation too.

I wonder if it truley works I looked into this too, and purchased a brush on amazon. What the hell, it cant hurt and anything that stimulates better circulation can't be a bad thing. You do feel all tingly after. lol
