People often say that excess skin after weight loss is affected by genetics, starting weight, length of time overweight, speed of weight loss, and age.
“If you’re young your skin will snap back”
That sucks, a lot of my friends that were real fat in elementary and early junior high lost tons of weight, but they still got A LOT of excess skin and its just sad how they want to cover it up, and some people even make fun of one of em and they call him “the Pillsbury Doughboy.”
IMO, I’d say you can be any age and have excess skin, it all depends on the amount of weight that you lost, not age.
