Thank you so much, Kate. Funny we have the same name. I've got the
time, I've been doing the exercise and I do the lotion once a day at the
moment but will up it to twice.

I am 43 and my skin is definitely not dry as I have always used lotion.


It's whether it's NATURALLY dry that really matters. If your skin is
naturally on the dry side and you got stretch marks when pregnant, the
skin is less elastic than for some folk, and t will take longer to shring...

Any special lotion you recommend or will any do? I ask b/c I started
using Clinique back in September for the neck and face and it works
wonders...in addition to the neck & facial exercises I learned to do.


Anything nice that you like! Clinique is fine. Lush massage bars are
fine... Even baby oil wil do! It's not just the skin softening and
moisurising that makes it work, but the massage.

As long as I know the skin will shrink up, I can wait. Thanks again.


It helps and it takes time, and you may always have some loose skin
after losing so much. I lost 70 lbs and have kept most of it off (but
suffer from water retention now, which is worse than fat to get rid
of!), and I found it did help with me.

Swimming also helps!
