I just had my 6 month post op check and I hit the 100lbs lost mark. While I'm extremely excited about the loss, I am feeling really uncomfortable with the way my body is lose and flappy in some places. I was wondering what some of the toning exercises or tips you guys and gals have been using.

Any feedback is greatly appreciated!

Sadly the only effective options are shapewear and plastic surgery.

Congratulations on your loss! That is fantastic! I am only 2 months out, so I am looking forward to seeing where I will be in four months. I wish I could be of help on your question about toning, but I haven't gotten there yet. :)

Skin shrinks slowly for up to 2 years after massive weight loss. Exercise can tone the muscles under the skin but there is no exercise or magic potion/lotion/cream/pill that will change the loose skin. Sorry!
