Need help with loose belly skin

**missytjg** · 02-19-2006, 05:31 PM

I've had 2 kids and I got up to almost 200lbs with both of them. Now that I'm down to 110lbs, I have loose belly skin and I'm trying to get rid of it without surgery. Does anyone know about any exercises that tightens up loose belly skin?

**TJ Cline** · 02-19-2006, 05:34 PM

Just time, exercise and a healthy diet.....still that might not be enough

**missytjg** · 02-19-2006, 05:37 PM

I've been doing exercises and I've even cut WAY back on eating to get down to a weight that I'm comfortable with but that loose skin is still there.

You cannot get rid of the excess skin, my wife had the same problem, she ended up getting surgery to have it removed.

**missytjg** · 02-19-2006, 05:56 PM

Well, I don't have the money for surgery so I guess I'm screwed, huh?

**Prince** · 02-19-2006, 06:06 PM

you can get lean and tighten up the abs, but the excess skin will remain, so yeah I guess.

Can anyone have excess skin? Like males who used to be super fat for example?

have u seen austin powers at the end when fat bastard lost a shitload of weight? did u see his skin!!

It is mostly dependent on age, if you are in your 20's or early 30's your skin may get back to normal, depending on how long you were at 200 and how quickly you got to 110. Either way, time is the only thing that will help aside from surgery.

Speaking from experience. If you've reached and maintained your goal weight for more than 6 months and you still have excess skin, you're screwed. Surgery will be your only option. I'm currently holding onto 5-7lbs of excess skin and it sucks. I will have surgery in about a year to remove it.

Not sure if I'm the one you were thinking of or not. But yes, I went from 390 to 205 and currently at 240. There was another gentleman with a similar story.

If you are asking this question it is fat.

**min0 lee** · 02-20-2006, 01:25 PM

That's right, he had pictures of himself showing the extra skin he had after a huge weight loss.
