Default question for people who have lots ALOT of weight

I know this question has been asked before, but I am kind of obsessive about this and would like to ask people who have maintained their weight after losing 100 or more pounds....

- How much did the loose skin improve?

- If it did improve, how long did it take?

- Do you recommend have the surgery to remove the skin?

In no way would I trade morbid obesity with having some loose skin, but I would like to know how much improvement to expect. I heard that it might take up to 2 or 3 years to see improvement and I hope that isn't the case.

Any info or encouragement on this would be very helpful!
