Lost 210lb 386 to 175, excess skin, need help

[ryansonebelt]

Hey Guys and Gals. My name is Ryan and as you can see below, I have lost 210lbs. Currently I am fighting to try to get my skin surgery covered by the government. The video explains why and all I have gone through. I am not asking anyone for money(I have turned down offers)I am only asking people to share this video to help get someone in governments attention. I put my picture on here before when I was at 186 and people were so kind, so I thought maybe if I put this up people would help. The video by the way shows the skin so thats why I used a link(incase someone does not want to see it). Thanks Everyone.

You have made a brilliant transformation.

I hope that you get the funding that you need.

There is no sound card in my computer so I couldnt hear what was said in the link - but the loose skin was plainly visible.

Where are you? Which government is involved. There may be other people on this forum who have dealt with them successfully.

I hope that you learn to accept your body despite the loose skin while awaiting surgery. You have made a giant change to your prospects of good health.

I have a decent amount of loose skin too. I know how hard and embarassing it makes me feel. I wonder if you feel the same way. I'm also trying to get surgery, I just can't afford a 12K abdnomiplasty. Like you, I lost alot of weight. 104 lbs in 2 years. Even though I lost it slowly and maintined it for 4 years, its still remains. Really bothers me. Take care, I wish you the best, and hang in there. I know what it feels like.
