Default Is loose, saggy skin inevitable?

Hi all,

I've been worried what's going to happen to all my skin once I'm slim.

I read some of the old posts on this topic. I do understand it depends on the elasticity of your skin, how fast you lose, how much you exercise, etc. And I read some of the great suggestions to combat this problem.

But I'm wondering - does it affect almost everyone? If you lose significant weight, is it inevitable you're going to have saggy skin?

I guess I'm hoping to hear some good news from folks who've lost quite a bit - I need to lose 50+ lbs -- and whose skin is returning to normal or close to.

I don't expect perfection but I wonder how bad it's going to be.

Good news, anyone?

K.
