check out this guys transformation

That gives me sooo much hope. I was so concerned with having so much extra skin that it would not be pretty. Now I see that with some hard work and some toning I can cover up alot of that sag. He said he was doing a keto diet there, so I assume Keto = ketones so an atkins type diet, so he probably lost it all relatively quickly, so I should be in a better position as far as sag goes. Weee.

Thats just amazing. People wouldn't even recognize him. Not even his own mother.
 
That is one of the top transformations I've seen, wow.

It's important to note, not to burst bubbles, that skin elasticity is largely genetic.

I'm not sure how quickly he lost it but ketogenic dieting doesn't equate to fast weight loss. There is nothing magical about being in ketosis. Initially as in the first couple of weeks the weight comes off quicker, mostly due to water loss. After that... and the long road is what matters... there really is no magic.
 
WOW. That's truly amazing... Craploads of respect to that guy for succeeding in such an amazing transformation, seriously. I'm nearly speechless :eek2:
 
This is amazing and shows how important photos can be in documenting your progress!

The other point though is to keep in mind that it does take time for the skin to shrink back. I gained 40 lbs. each time I was pregnant - and it took a couple of years for the skin to go back to being smooth each time even though I lost the weight in 6 months. But, having said that, I also didn't get any stretch marks and I think that is an indication that I have naturally high skin elasticity.
