Default Loose skin?

I've lost a total of 64lbs. Now I have loose skin around my inner thighs and tummy. Is there anything I can do? without having to have surgery.

Go ahead and go to your goal and re-evaluate. I am dealing w/the same--loose skin. I am hoping for Spanx from Santa Claus.

Did you read through the loose skin faq?

Basically, it can get better. Mine has gotten better over time but for me, It'll never be great. I was too fat for too long and genetics aren't on my side.
