When you lose weight how do you stop your skin from sagging and can sit-ups and ab crunches help?
Sagging skin is caused by lossing too much weight too quickly. Slow, gradual weight loss does not result in excess flab, but rather, gives your skin and other body parts a chance to respond to all the changes that weight loss brings.
Eat a healthy, balanced diet that includes all the same vitamins and minerals that keep skin healthy, but most of all: Slow down!
If you lose weight at a safe pace your skin should not sag too much during weight loss. It's only when you lose weight too fast (usually from some fad-diet) that your skin does not have time to "catch up". Lots of body moisturiser every morning and night is also good (and it helps with stretch marks a bit too).
Yes good moisture to your skin really helps. I use palmers coco butter, its epecially for after weight loss and pregnancy. I find it the best i lost 3 stone in 6 months and my skin went back a treat with using this cream twice a day. There is other body moisturisers that do the same thing, look out for them in Skin Care shops Q10 is the main ingrediant that firms up skin and strenghens the elasticity.
Take in a good vitamin e supplement and apply vitamin e cream or oil twice a day in the problem areas. This will not give you immediate results, but will slowly tighten up the skin and prevent sagging. Skin is like elastic and it needs time to settle in.
