A member asked:
Should i keep trying to lose weight or stop here and try to give my body more time to tighten up the skin before losing any more?

Depends: On what your initial weight was, what your current weight is (how much you have lost) and what your goal weight is. With that information, a doctor can tell you what would be in your best interest. Often, the recommendation is to first lose all of the weight to attain your goal weight as this will keep you motivated.
