I am wonder like allmymarbles whether you have lost a lot of weight.

If you go on a diet to lose weight, it is important to lose it gradually, 1-2lbs a week is preferred.  

What has happened is you have lost a lot of muscle and the skin has not been able to shrink slowly and gradually as you have been losing weight.

It is important to drink plenty of water so that yu do not become dehyrated. A healthy balanced diet and some exercise to firm up your muscles.  If there is a lot of sagging skin after losing a lot of weight, only cosmetic surgery can correct this.

As we get older the elastine in the skin diminishes, and the skin does not stay firm.  Make sure you always stay well hydrated.

You might want to have labs drawn to see what's going on.  Eat less sugar and more vegetables.
