Can exercise alone be enough to help get rid of loose skin?

I think it depends on alot of things. How much weight was lost. How fast it was lost. Then there is the age factor. And im sure genes come into play somehow. In my case it was unavoidable.

Exercise does not change your skin. You can change the muscle that the skin hangs over, but you can't make the skin shrink. That's mostly genetic. I've heard skim milk helps with elasticity and staying well hydrated as well. I have heard that the skin will continue to shrink up to one year after weight loss stops. I'm still keeping my fingers crossed for mine, but not expecting a miracle.

Wish I had better news.

Losing at a steady but not too rapid pace (1-2 pounds weekly), taking in appropriate nutrition with Vitamins and enough Protein and keeping regular exercise all help your body keep up with the weight loss and lessen problems with excess skin, or at least make sure that you are giving your skin the best opportunity to shrink healthily.

Most of it has to do with heredity, skin elasticity, age, length of time obese, etc. You may not have control over a lot of it.
