In order for the skin to hang the person has to be be very extreme overweight like in the 400 to 500 and up weight range. It also depends on how old the person is for the younger the more natural elasticity to the skin-it will tighten especially with exercise. If you are extremely overweight please lose the weight and exercise and do not let worry over loose skin stop you for a Plastic surgeon can do away with loose skin. Usually those who have the loose skin are also those who have actually need the surgery to lose the weight. Getting rid of the weight will improve your appearance,your health and those benefits outweigh worry over loose skin. if you do weight toning exercises esp free weights for the arms your skin will get firmed. Weight training -toning and not bulking up (to add a whole lot of muscle can't be acccomplished if cutting portions and eating healthy for have to eat more.)is the bet way to help with a healthy eating plan to lose weight for muscle tissue burns fat even when resting.Go to wwwlobal-fitness.com for exercises how to do and so on. Get 3lb 5lb and 10lb free weights(dumbbells_ and its not how heavy the weight but the no of repetitions-to lose the weight means more repetitions.Usually start at 10-15prefer15 then whe you can do with no effort go up 5to 20 when they get real easy go up another 5 and so on. start with th 3lb then go to 5lb and only when there is no challenge what so ever go to the 10lbs. Can get weights K-Mart,Wal-Mart,Target also Authority but no need to get expensive kind-the cheaper do the job just as effective.As you get good on the movements and practice good form then you can advance yourself.

It depends alot on how much weight the person has lost and how rapidly the person has lost it. If down slowly, your skin has time to recover and shrink back. There are many cases where people get gastric bipass surgery, and because they lose the weight so quickly, the skin just hangs. Then they need surgery again to remove the excess skin.

you have to drink alot of water and exercise. It also helps if you massage your body with firming creams to support your skin as you lose weight. If you are significantly overweight you are going to have some skin flab. It shouldnt be too bad if you stay hydrated. Good Luck!

If the person is very overweight then most likely the skin is going to hang because it has been stretched so much.

pick up a 5 or 10 pound weight at the gym and visualize that weight coming off holding the weight in your hands helps bring home just how heavy even 5 pounds of extra fat can be
