Reply:Your skin only loosens as you get older.
Reply:Not of you tie it down securely.
Reply:Carbohydrates and excessive intake of certain fatty materials can cause weight gain. Low fat, high fiber and protein(like broiled chicken, whey-fit protein shake mixes) will help you loose the extra weight your still carrying around(no pun intended). The stretch marks CAN be helped with some judicious amounts of vitamin-E intake as well as some topically applied. Unfortunately, there is no real guaranty all the stretch marks will fade like most of them will.
Reply:Sorry, you can tone up your muscles which may give the appearance of tighter skin, but usually once the skin is stretched that far, it does not completely return to it's original appearance.





Haven't you ever seen on TV people who lost large amounts of weight who have had to have excess skin removed. same thing...smaller scale.





Don't worry, do some toning exercises, drink lots of water, watch what you eat, and you'll look and feel better, after all... how many people see you totally naked anyway? Unless you are stripping! lol





good luck, and stay away from all the sweets this Christmas





Been There.
Reply:nope, only way to to get surgury to remove it
Reply:yes you can lose extra skin if u exercise you can also use viatmin e to remove the strech marks
Reply:No, you won't lose skin, only the fat underneath the skin. That is why everybody who loses weight with a gastric bypass gets an abdominoplasty after they lose the weight.





An abdominoplasty ("tummy tuck") is the only thing that will fix the extra skin problem. It is a fairly big procedure (3-5 hours of surgical time and a month off work to recover) and it's not cheap.





An abdominoplasty will get rid of skin, but is not for weight loss, as only about 3-7 pounds come off. It makes a dramatic difference in your appearance, though.





Here's more info on the procedure:

Sorry for the disappointing news. I've lost some weight and would LOVE a "tummy tuck" but can't afford the time off work, and am not keen on 3 feet of scars.
Reply:No, you cannot. When you exercise, you lose fat and strengthen muscles, but it does not affect skin. Unfortunately. (Wish I could get my skin back on my tummy after my pregnancy and c-section!) If it improves, it will be much to the quality of your skin, not to your exercising routine. As to stretchmarks - they are hereditary and for life. No creams or vitamin E work. Sorry!





The good news is that although your tummy will never look as it used to, the folds on the skin will get a little smaller, and the stretchmarks will most likely fade and eventually become white, so they won't be that obvious.
