I have a huge problem though I have alot of excess skin around my stomach I dont know how to get rid of it? Theres some on my arms like where my bicept is but what Im guessing is if I grow muscle mass there my skin will form around it.. I just dont know what to do witht he scess skin around my stomach?
How are your stretchmarks on your stomach? If they aren't huge, wide, purple ones, you're skin will tighten up over the next year or so. If you have a lot of 1/2" wide ones where the skin is paper thin in the middle, then it's gonna be iffy because those areas have been damaged. But regardless, lose any more fat you have around your waist and give it another year to tighten up and see where it's at.

Wow. I'm stunned by your studness. You're just so Gerard Butler (that's Irish for extremely good looking.)
We all have this problem, hon. Excess skin definitely tightens after you've maintained a certain weight for an extended period of time, which is great news to us all. I'm constantly surprised my how my own body deals with my lessening adipose tissue. Every three weeks or so I can see a major improvement in my skin's elasticity. It's consistantly getting tighter.
Give it time. It'll improve. Your biggest organ simply couldn't handle such a drastic change in such an amount of time. When it finally says "Huh, I guess I better conform to this lack of fat." It'll tighten.

Cold enough for you today in the Brrrrrrrgh? It was one degree when I left the house this morning. ONE. And, with the windchill, supposedly felt like minus 12.
Stay warm!
