Hi. Fear of saggy skin/loose skin should not hold you back in getting back to a healthy weight and lifestyle.
Gradual weight reduction as compared rapid massive weight loss will give time for your skin contract better giving lesser saggy skin.
Whatever sagging remains after the goal weight is achieved can be corrected by numerous skin tightening procedures .
