Lose weight slower, it will give your skin enough time to flatten. Also, build muscle in the area to tighten it, and work out some of your upper body, it may give the illusion of a tighter stomach by pulling the excess skin away from the abdominal region.

I am a guy, but also a husband and father of two. It is extremely difficult to loose the excess skin. It is very elastic, but picture this: blow up a ballon 3 or 4 releasing the out each time. But do not feel bad...it happens to all (or at least to the typical). Skin firming lotions work some, but may not rid of all (depending on severity). We all know the "other" option. That is a personal decision (not right nor wrong). I wish you the best.

Once losing alot of weight it is very hard to lose the excess skin. The best thing that can be done is a tummy tuck. I hope you get what your looking for and congrats!

Depending on your age and how much you lost, the skin will not go back, it will hang and needs to be surgically removed. You can try crunches and sit ups and drink skim milk and eat oranges, some people say that helps if your still young.
Good Luck and congrats on the loss.

Tummy tuck baby!
Just make sure it's done by a expert... and don't forget to tell the surgeon that you still want to wear a bikini so they can put the stitches in places hidden from view... = )

try to lose weight more slowly. it gives your skin time to catch up. also, do sit ups and crunches.

do leg lifting every day and increase the numbers you could perform each day. you can also do sit-ups because it excercises the stomach muscles. lastly, you can try applying firming lotion.
