Toning up after lipo... can anyone help me out?

[corazndemelon]

Hi,

I'm just wondering if its possible to tone up after liposuction.. I had it done last year and I started working out and doing weights this past october. I've already lost a few pounds but my skin is still pretty lose... I really dont want to have the skin tightening procedure done so i was wonderign if I work out to gain muscle.. i mean is it possible?? or am I doomed?? Do i need a protein based diet to make more muscles?? i dont want to bulk up i just want a tight body... anyone know anything about this?

THANK YOU!

i think it takes years to have skin tighten on its own depending on age
but u want see a big diff..

depending on how much extra skin u got
most live with it

cuz getting it cut away leaves a scar
but if its alot
i would ask around about it with the docs...but .i would like to hear what others say

i was in the teen section and found this asian kid...he lost 100 lbs when he was 17
ask him what he did or how it went for him with extra skin

yeah I mean i really dont have that much extra skin that's y i wanted to see if eating rite and having a weight training routine would help tighten it.. I just turned 28 and i'm pretty active in the gym... but not big on weights:|

THanks I'll check out the teen forum

if its not much..it could go away over time..mabe help it by creating bigger abs

^^^ theres no such thing in reality... Yes, you may "fill" looser skin with muscle, however, abs will not show thru or "come thru" until a fairly low bf% is attained.
