Loose Skin After Weight Loss
Posted by PhilifeApr 28
—————————————————————————————————-
After rapid weight loss some people will end up with excess loose skin. This is determined by a number of factors including age, how much weight you lose and how fast you lose it.
What can be done about this loose skin? Is surgery the only treatment or are there other options? how do you know if you’re a candidate for having loose skin after a big weight reduction?
In this podcast we’ll discuss what causes loose skin after rapid weight loss and who might be susceptible to getting it.
We’ll also discuss body water and how it relates to the way you look vs fat and muscle.
Bryan Chung from www.evidencebasedfitness.blogspot.com will be joining us for this podcast.

P.S. I think I’ve actually got the volume problem fixed finally! (thanks to Bryan, I can’t take credit for it)

I really, really, really wish that you guys would dedicate an entire podcast to water, and how it impacts the body. Like how to get rid of excess water, how water impacts your body at lower percentages, how to discern water weight vs bodyfat, etc. That would be like Christmas to me.

Why is not striae mentioned?
Nothing kills elasticity of the skin like striae.

Kevin,
Once you have loose skin it seems the only way to deal with it is surgery. It depends on where the skin is and how much there is.

Kevin,
That’s presuming that your loose skin is ACTUALLY loose skin, and not just a contour difference while you’re losing fat with more fat to go.

Anyway to get a transcript of the podcast? I’m not a native english speaker and I understand way better when I read it… :/
