Ensure as a meal replacement?

I'm hoping to have a nice beach body by June and want to lose fat by a combination of eating less/healthily and exercising.

I was thinking about replacing dinner with this 350 calorie nutritional drink called Ensure for a couple weeks and was wondering what you guys thought of it. I'm still going to try to eat about 1500-1700 calories a day. I'm 118 lbs (mixture of muscle mass and fat) and 5'2".

Also, when I lose weight, I get that elastic skin effect and it's super gross looking. Does anyone know how I can reduce the appearance of it?

Fūma Kotarō and Tsuruhime…

i'm 5'9/10" and 125lbs (no diets here!) but i've heard that eating smaller meals throughout the day will help with the elasticity (since you'll be losing it more gradually, your body will have time to adjust) and with the weight loss.
all the tips i can give you

emotion_donotwant I got that lose elastic skin on my tummy. I'd like some info on this too.

Also I do five to six small meals ranging up to 200 to 250 cals per. and mostly high protein and low fat meals.
