Not sure bro but I did want to say congrats on your progress.

thank you.. it is a bit disconserting to loose alot of weight to find out you have flabby gut and scrawny arms. lol

There was a thread somewhere about this before, u might want to try doing a search, from what i remember about it, not even surgery can tighten up the skin enough to get a 6 pack ever.

You could possibly develop a 2-4 pack, but i think a sixer is out of the question of course it depends on how loose your skin really is. Most fat peoples skin on their stomach stretches more at the bottom then at the top, so you might be able to develope the top anyway.

There is a bright side. You can get a Coleman gut and then that sixer might stand out, but seriously if you want defined abs which you might not get, focus on building muscle in the abs/obli this will help somewhat.

seen alot of forums in my time online this one is by far the best and most informed

First off....congrats!!!! To loose 90 lbs, I'm sure none of it was easy. As for the loose skin, in my case some of it did firm up but not much. As for ways to help out without surgery I'm not sure. Like the others had mentioned there was another thread about this that had some good info!
