Will this diet give me loose skin?!
Question: Will this diet give me loose skin?
I currently weigh 256lbs, and with the workouts I'm doing daily, I wind up losing about 4000 calories a day on average. Mostly cardio (lots of running, treadmills are my best friend lately. Wind up doing about 2-3 hours on one a day), with weight training and resistance training. If the 3,500 calories = a pound thing is right, then that's at least a pound a day lost.
The thing I'm worried about however, is my skin. In this past month since I started, I lost 24 pounds. No real signs of loose skin YET (except that I find the skin on my arms stretchy / I can pull it away, but it's not sagging away from the rest of my arms).
IN A NUTSHELL I'm asking, with this work out, will it give me saggy skin? And is there anything I can do to prevent it? Lotions or something, home remedies? Anything?
Answers:
Since your weight is high it's likely that you MAY have some lose skin but it's not going to sag very noticeably. The faster you lose the more extra skin you will have. If you lose slowly it give your skin time to bounce back.
Lotions and pills are a scam, please don't buy into those. The best thing to do is weight train on areas like your arms or stomach where loose skin tends to sag. Woman won't naturally get huge and bulky when weight lifting so don't be afraid of that!
Lose pounds gradually. DRINK, DRINK, DRINK, lots of water, staying hydrated is essential for the body to function well and it will help maintain your skin's elasticity. Eat protein, by eating protein you are helping to build muscle which will prevent saggy skin. And try doing lots of weight training, it will build muscle which will also prevent your skin from sagging.
