Loseing more weight certainly will not hurt. If you think you have cut enough, hopefully you can go on another diet. Atkins is just for dropping extreme weights for desperate people, so congrats on useing it properly. Now, keep the protein high and limit your carbs to quality carbs like in oatmeal and red protatoes keeping fat and sugar to a minimum. As you get your energy back you will be more and more able to work out. This way you will not only drop fat but build muscle. Be aware though that virtually any workout program on the low carb diet will only leave you weaker. For all the bad things that are said about the atkins diet it is mostly based on how the diet is used in far too many situations. So again way to go using it to drop 80 lbs. If you feel ready, let it go and get back to real food and reach that beutiful star.
Great job on the weight loss! However, this is one of the reasons I tell people to stay away from "fad diets". You lose the weight faster than your skin can shrink and are left with this problem.
Only time will tell if your skin will shrink to fit your new body. Fortunately you are young and will grow into it. The healthy way to go on this would be to fill that loose skin with muscles with some weight training. Best of luck to you.

Start weight training and while you can lose weight on aktins you should learn how to eat correctly and maintain your weight. Carbs are no bad if eaten correctly. Actually you body will need them if you want to build some muscle and weight train.
