If I had some loos skin on tummy and arms after an 80 pound weight loss, how long should I give it to firm up? Im young, 23 years old, but will the skin tighten with exercise or stay flabby?

   The thing with a large weight loss is that the weight is generally lost too fast, which doesn’t give the skin enough time to go back to what it was.
   After reaching your target weight, I would wait a few months, doing regular light exercise and eating healthily, and then see how your skin is. If you are still unhappy you could look into plastic surgery.

   Try this website though, it has some advice about excess skin after weight loss, and non surgical methods. http://www.bodyfatguide.com/LooseSkin.htm

   Good luck. x

   It can take up to two years.

   You should go for exercise and give it at least 6 months. If it doesn’t work then you can opt for plastic surgery. http://www.juvedermultra.co.uk/ is a great site and you can also get some excellent details on this topic from this site.
