I have a client that started with me 3 months ago. For the first month he lost a tremendous amount of weight. I believe it was at a rate of about 3-4lbs a week. I believe he was watching the Biggest Loser and wanted to see a rapid weight loss like them. I suppose it was my fault for not drilling it into his head enough to slow down the weight loss.
But now he has loose skin. What should I do?
We've been on a weight loss program. Eating salads, whole grain foods, lean meats, etc. And being in a calorie deficit. But I'm thinking we should change it up and up his calories to about maintenance level and start focusing on high protein to start building muscle.
Would that help with the loose skin?

The longer your client is leaner, the more elasticity the skin will regain.
I've also heard Apricot Kernal Oil helps.
