How to tighten "man-boob" skin?!
Question: My boyfriend is extremely bothered by the way his chest looks. He has recently lost a lot of weight, and although he still has a ways to go, his issue now are his "man-boobs".
The thing is is that they're not filled with excesse fat. It's the saggy, stretched skin that's left from him losing weight. He's only 25 so is it possible for him to naturally tone and pull that skin back up without having to have surgery?
Also, how do you get someone to exercise when they're in no shape to start?

I had lost 120 pounds. My excess skin across my midsection literally looked like an apron of flesh. My skin can come off of my abdominal wall. No amount of exercise would fix that. I had to go in for an abdominalplasty and liposuction. In the abdominalplasty they reattached my skin to the abdominal wall. AS far as my chest goes, I was able to get it to look normal through a lot of chest workouts. A muscled chest will erase the man-boobs (or Moobies as I like to call them).
I'd suggest that he lose the weight slowly and work on doing a lot of chest exercises. That will tone it up. If it doesn't, he might need surgery to get the skin removed. If he lost a bunch of weight, his insurance might even pay for the surgery to remove the excess skin. Have hm SERIOUSLY look into it. My surgery was $7,000.00 in the clinic or $10,000.00 if I would've been knocked out completely in the hospital. I found out later that my insurance might've paid for it.
As far as your exercise question. It is best to either start with a diet or start with an exercise plan first. if you're changing your diet, you don't need to exercvise right away. If you are exercising you don't need to diet right away. Once that person gets into an established healthy eating or heathly exercise routine, that si when they can start incorporating the other. So if your friend is too heavy to exercise, start witha diet and eventually incorporate exercise. By the way, there is no such thing as being too fat to exercise. I saw a show on TLC about a man who was 1250 pounds. He was bedridden but danced and girated in his bed for exercise,. he lost 400 pounds.
I can answer the last sentence: start from small things.. and then go large..lol
I think u need surgery to do that..
Lift weights to tone the muscles and do a lot of swimming:the breaststroke is great for loose skin.
