I have recently lost 47 lbs and I have about 20 more to go. But my legs / upper arms / and stomach area don't look good. I didn't think I really streched things out but they look like swiss cheese and my top of my legs STILL chafe -- although I have lost 4 inches in the waist -- the top of my legs have only gone down 1/2 inch.
Also I can only devote about 30 minutes of exercise per day and I don't want to screw up losing the final 20 lbs by trying to bring in something else.
First question - is it possible to tighten up the legs and flabby areas via doing some sort of non cardio exercise.
Second question -- if not -- and I suspect not -- would my time be better spent getting to goal and keeping the 30 minutes largely cardio and THEN devoting my time to weight lifting / toning when I get to goal?
Has anyone else lost weight -- was very flabby and then got toned / looked great via weight training at the end?
