How do you get rid of the loose skin after having a baby?

I%26#039;m asking this here because everyone in the fitness section suggests surgery. when i had my son the skin went right back into place. four months ago i gave birth to a daughter and have also been losing weight since her birth and the loose skin is not going back from where it came. so my question is, is how did you tighten back up your tummy after your baby was born? and please no mention of surgery. i%26#039;d rather live with the skin!|||i checked out the book banish your belly butt and thighs and followed the excersizes religiously, and sometimes the meal plans. i lost a lot of weight a nd firmed up nicely....then i got pregnant two more times...so back i go again to the book|||I asked my doctor because I only gained weight around my tummy and a bit in my thighs (they touch now!). My son is 3.5 months and I haven%26#039;t been able to exercise yet because my hips and back still hurt, but my doctor said to go for walks, then jog, then maybe run when I feel like it. Also to have a healthy diet (ha, I%26#039;m a junk food addict!) and to drink water instead of juices and soda. He also said to work out my abs slowly, by doing crunches. Since I have back issues, I was allowed to do crunches on an exercise ball, which eases the pain. It takes time, and I still have 15 lbs left to lose. You might not be back to normal completely but it%26#039;ll be better than it is now.|||Sometimes it can be a question of genetics too. I have had two kids and my belly is not so good. When I was pregnant with my son I only put weight on around my middle, so I had a huuuuge belly, he is 9mo and I still have extra skin, drives me nuts, lol. I%26#039;m still looking for a way to tighten up the skin, (maybe if I had some stomach muscles too it would help, lol) if you find a way that works and is easy (I%26#039;m lazy, maybe that%26#039;s the problem, lol) I%26#039;m there, yay!|||i was wondering exactly the same thing
