Nope. You might have loose skin issues, but you also might be just fine over time. Lots of things play into it, like age, speed of weight loss, etc.

So strength training will help tighten up flab, but won't really tighten loose skin. Some people like skin tightening lotions, but the reviews on cheap ones from the drugstore are about the same as lotions that are $75 a bottle, and non of them really have a big impact.

2 months ago I was horrified by my body. I didn't have loose skin so much as a lot of really loose saggy fat. With each little stall I've had my skin/fat has gotten tighter and tighter. It's almost completely gone now. I do have good genetics skin wise, but my point is to give it time. The first few months might seem terrible but it could get much better with time.
