    Saggy Skin concerns ; ;

    I noticed I'm getting a lot of saggy skin now that I've lost all of my weight (I need to edit my profile, I'm actually at 160 right now! Still losing though ^_~) Are there any solutions for this that can make it less saggy? ; ;
    I will lose weight, I will lose weight, I WILL LOSE WEIGHT!

      Exercise, drinking water, and the ladies in the Women forum swear by "dry brushing".

                  give your body time the skin shrinks once you have been at a lower wt for a while and you are pretty young ... I am 48 years old when the wt came off in the beginning I had a saggy tummy ...and thighs ...now ..no sag ..I can pull loose skin out if I try but since I dont want it out I leave it where it is!!.. ..skin is a very resilliant organ and will find some of its elasticity again ..in the mean time you can try dry brushing with a soft natural bristle brush before you shower it helps stimulate circulation feels really good (reminds me I have to buy a new brush today) and I would like to believe it had some bennies when it came to helping my skin find it's way back..I wish now I had taken a pic of my tummy all loose and hanging because it is dramatic compared to the after pic I am showing you now ..it took almost a year to get it to look decent again ..the stretch marks stay but fade to almost nothing in time as well ...
