Asked By:irebrok1992 in Rome, GA

Hello everyone. First, before my question I will put some info about me: Age: 25 Height: 5 foot 5 Inches Weight Before Surgery: 348 Weight 6 months out ( Current ): 227.8 Goal Weight: 150 Since I am so young and I exercise and weight lift 4-6 days a week, will my skin tighten by itself? So far I don't haven't got much hanging skin, just on my arms and under my arms and a little on my thighs. Will it go away in time or will I need to have surgery? What other options besides surgery do I have?
