I don't see what all of the concern is about.

| Exactly...
I know people lose weight for vanity purposes- i'm one of them... but to be so overly concerned about lose skin before even beginning to lose weight... well...
there's an expression about crossing that bridge when you come to it -

4 months is nothing! Takes up to a couple of years to recover from several years damage! |

I don't see what all of the concern is about. |  I like this post,I always prepared myself that I was going to have hanging stomach skin .I started off at nearly 350lbs and 34 years old with a 56" waist,The goal for me is a 36" waist, flat or sagging I could not care less a big hanging belly does not suddenly pull itself up and in,pulling in will do for me,short of surgery you cant alter it anyway.
