Default Saggy skin, again

I'm getting down there with my weight. I've been up to 100 lbs over before. Now, I'm appx 25 lbs from goal, I've begin to notice loose skin. Nothing severe, but I would like to help it pull in if I can. I use Aveeno Daily Firming Moisurizing Lotion, clinically proven to improve skin's firmness and elasticity all day long. I put it on several X's a day. Is there something better? I've seen Bio Oil advertised on TV. Does anyone have improvements with lotions and oils? Any ideas?

sexymommy,

I thought there would be more discussion here!!!. When I got to 104 lbs, I had saggy skin. I read on this board about recommendations to exercise and jump up and down alot. I didn't try that (the jumping up and down alot). But in my eyes I was looking so saggy, I allowed some weight to intentionally come back. But now I'm at 120 and its time to increase the exercise and get my weight back in check.

I was hoping to read about how other low carbers deal with sagging skin. I've just recently passed my 3rd anniversary lowcarbing without major setbacks.

So how are other lowcarbers handling success with sagginess?
