Default Need advice about saggy skin after weight loss

Ok, I saw a post on:

soc.support.fat-acceptance

It is titled:

Michael Schiavo DEAD...just desserts!


And the user called post posted a link in his that
post to a woman who had gastric bypass and lost over 200lbs. Now, they
show after photos, and I am telling you, a lot of skin! I have a lot
of weight to lose. I have done pretty well so far, as of this morning,
I have lost 44 lbs.

Anyway... After looking at this last night, I had a hard time
sleeping. I am wondering if you think this woman just had something
wrong with the elastic in her skin that would not allow any of her skin
to go back to normal? Or is this just what happens to people that have
to lose such a large amount of weight?

I may not have quite as much weight to lose as she did, but it is
comparable and I am absolutely shocked and scared that this could be
the case for me too! Anyone else that has lost a lot of weight get so
much skin it looked like this? If my boobs end up looking like that, I
would rather be fat!

Please check that out and tell me what you think. And if I have
offended anyone, I am sorry. I am just really shocked.

I would also like to know if you have any ideas of what a person can do
while they are losing weight to prevent some of that saggy skin? I
know that I will have some and I can deal with that, but man, I don't
want anything like she has. Please tell me of ways to help the skin go
back to normal.

Thanks in advance
Sherry
