I am still holding out hope. The loose skin is the worst on my stomach. At least two or three times a week I put coconut oil on it. Skin does lose elasticity over time with age. But, I do think the oil is helping a little. I have heard that it takes six to twelve months after a large weight loss for the skin to recover. It won't completely recover...but I believe there will be improvement. I will continue to believe it and mentally, spiritually, physically WILL it to shrink up. Keeping the faith because I've no money for the removal surgery.
