Does the neck area ever get better?

I started out at 306 lbs. 6 months supervised diet ended at 280. 2 weeks of Fluid took off 10 more lbs!!! Surgery was 9-21-15. Gastric bypass. I'm now 202. I'm very happy with my progress but I'm really aware of my neck. I have much more weight to lose (I'm 5'2")... As you get closer to goal does the neck skin get any better? I'm much happier with hanging skin than a triple chin but just wanted to ask for others experiences. Thank you post-262792-1462893660332_thumb.jpg

    My sister had a gobbler after she had surgery she's 15 years in. Don't agree with everybody else as the years have gone by hers shrunk to where it looks pretty good. I lost a hundred thirty pounds before in 2013 and I didn't get any hanging skin anywhere if I have really good elasticity I've always been complimented by my skin I'm 56 years old and you couldn't tell so I think it depends on your elasticity.
