I have a big stomach, and the weight is coming off rapidly. What can i do each day to keep the skin elasticky.
Will rubbing some type of lotion / creme help? I can do it in the morning and in the evening.
Will stretching the skin help?
I am desparate, i really dont want excess skin hanging around
Would massaging the skin help to keep its original form?

Sorry. That's not going to work. Elasticity comes from WITHIN and nothing you put on your skin or ingest will bring it back once it's gone. If you have sagging, lose skin, you are stuck with it. It won't go back. Ever.
Now you can have skin removal surgery. It is very common when people lose a lot of weight. Stomach, arms, thighs, butts....all the skin can be removed.
I wish there was something that could help. It would be a miracle.

exercise will help alot.. but depending on how old you are and the type of skin you have, its unpredictable, strongly suggest working out often to keep up with the loss of weight. the creams , I don't think will make a huge improvement, they work, sometimes

It depends on how old you are. Younger people have more elastic skin than older people, and therefore their skin will shrink somewhat. You will still have loose skin though.

There may be a cream that can help with it - you should ask your doctor about that. Stretching will NOT help - in fact it will harm. Massaging won't help either. BTW - congrats!

you may be used to fried foods but there are other sometimes healthier ways to cook including roasting steaming poaching baking braising and broiling
