Exercise is good for your HEALTH. While it's made me a solid, toned thin person, I was an avid exerciser when I was fat. I was able to walk long distances, do more than my non-exercising thin friends, etc.
As others said though it reshapes your body. I'm a totally different shape at goal than I was when I was heavier. My arms also look great and they were a major annoyance of mine!
Also I outweigh a friend of mine by 15lbs (we're the same height) and we wear the same size clothes
so thank you weight training!

Those worries went out of the window once I noticed how better I felt and looked even with the loose skin.
Exactly! I don't even care about it now. I'm so much happier and can do so much more.
Although what they say about TIME is true...my skin looks so much better at one year out than when I first hit goal
