WTF. It's annoying me. Does cardio/dieting matter that much?
I hate to say this but it is loose skin. You mentioned in your previous posts that you have lost over 50 pounds in two years and that is probably the primary cause. You have lost elasticity of the skin. I heard that grapes, bluberries and lots of water may help the skin become tighter but I doubt it. I think it is from the weight loss. I have studied this matter very much and I don't think it is plausible that weight training will do the trick as some "experts" may suggest.
