What do YOU do about the skin?

My arms and legs have the jiggles too, but I still wear tank tops. I have practiced (in front of the mirror) the best ways to stand, sit, etc so that the areas look their best. So in other words I don't walk around in my tank top with my arms out or up, LOL! I keep them down at my sides, folded in front of me, etc to minimize the flapping. Oh, and I'm a tanner~a little color always makes everything "appear" a little better (even sunless tanning).

I like the tanning idea. LOL It'd HAVE to be sunless tanning for me since all I can achieve with sunning is a toasty red hide.

Tanning is an experience.  My butt looks like a an old seamans parchment paper map....very tan with alot of pale creases.  It took me a few days lol, to figure out that when I lay down I have to reach under my butt to spread the skin out so it doesn't fold and make white wrinkles.  Now I roll over on my belly half the time to make sure there are no creases on my butt, but I have to worry about belly or thigh creases.  I suggest the up right tanning booth but I wonder if they will let someone come in to hold up my boods so I don't have to bend my arms creating white wrinkles at my elbows LOL!!!
