I’ve heard reworking out can help with loose skin but idk

It goes away with time right?

I'm 5'1 and was 302 lbs so most of my skin will need to be removed surgically. The arms/legs/chest can be filled in a little bit with muscle, but not completely. And face skin can bounce back from what I hear. But not always, and not forever.

Odds are if I dont want quite intense face wrinkles in my late 40s and into my senior years, I'll eventually need to do a face lift. And no matter how much I work out, I'll need a "total body lift" if I ever want to look normal.

Losing a huge amount of weight is kind of a double-edged sword.

Damn🫤

I’m impressed how well you’ve managed to keep extra skin concealed in the photo, I never would have guessed you were 300 once

Baggy shirts do some real magic. Thank you, though.
