I LOST WEIGHT AND NOW I LOOK OLD
It because your losing all the fat deposits that were previously keeping your skin puffed out,
once you have been at goal awhile and the weight stablizes, the fat that is left on your body will redistribute so you should lose that sunken in look....
but while your contuning to lose weight it could get worse before it gets better...

With skin..... no take backs......like the elastic on a blown out pair of underwear......damaged beyond repair......
In my case.... it's my own fault..... I'm the one that stretched out my own skin.......

Me too. I used to be a chubby cheeks and was proud I had few wrinkles at age 58. Then I deflated and they appeared. It is true though that after a time, things do kind of settle in and look better. One thing I do is use retin-A and I believe it helps. Guess I will have to save for a face lift. But I will take the wrinkes over all that fat! Treat yourself to a salon facial. Diane

People tell me that I look younger, but I tend to see the turkey neck and saggy skin. I'll take the present look, compared to the one filled with fat. Small price to pay, for one hundred pounds gone and the wonderful health benefits.
I think, some of yours might improve with redistribution, as the previous posters said.

I looked in your profile to see if you had posted any before/after pictures and I see you didn't. I can honestly say that out of all the before/after pictures I have seen - a majority, and I mean 99%, the person looks so much YOUNGER than where they started. I am certain that that is probably true for you, as well. Most people look so much better with the weight gone.
