Unfortunately no, lots of factors: Age, genes (skin elasticity), diet, exercise... Etc.

There's so many factors - age, how long been obese, how many times you've lost and regained, genetics, etc. You can try exercise (strength training), moisturizer, getting enough fluids and Protein, etc to try to minimize loose skin but there's some people that will have it no matter what they do.

Thank you I will definitely have try some of your tips .

Mindi, go to Youtube and search weight loss and skin. People call them "skin flicks" and they will post before and after photos and also show themselves currently in underwear with all their skin. Working out with weights helps a lot for arms and legs because the muscle will get bigger and fill in some of the saggy skin. Skin on the stomach seems to be a bigger issue for most people. It really depends on where you carry your extra weight. But most people who love 100 pounds or more will have excess skin no matter what they do. It happens even if you lose slowly and even if you lose without surgery.

I will definitely do that I forgot about YouTube thank you
