Tons of extra skin.. not me

Wow that is an amazing transformation. If I had the skin issues that guy had I wouldn't think twice about surgery. It's fantastic that he lost the weight though.

For most of us, I endorse the comments about doing it while you're young enough for skin to bounce back - that would have motivated me earlier if I had realized.

This kind of stuff is true. who was on Oprah. And I remember seeing a documentary on the Discovery channel about a lady who looked a lot like the guy in the pictures posted here but I couldn't find a link for it. And describing the procedure.

Pretty darn amazing. Gives me impetus to lose what weight I have while my flesh is still young and elastic. :p

I do understand the concept of excess skin, but I haven't seen excess skin in that kind of severity before.

If its true, its damn astonishing, and I am so desperate to know on how he lost all that weight. The transformation is unbelievable.
 
i also agree with losing weight whilst your younger. i gained then lost 4 - 5 stone in my early 20`s. not a sign of saggy skin did i have. this time im not so lucky. apart from being heavier than ever before i am now in my 40`s. slim
 
I have to mention also that the poses he uses are designed to emphisize it. I can probably post similar pics if i posed the same, however i chose to show normal standing poses on mine and wear a bra :D

The leaning forward so it all wrinkles up etc in particular makes it look a lot worse than it is.
 
Amazing

I can't say anything else but what an amazing weight loss!! How long did it take you? I saw that you had surgery, did all the extra skin come off?
You really are a true inspiration! What gave the motivation?
 
the guy (in the pics) in fact has been on tv multiple times for the weight loss and the surgery.
 
he even has a youtube thing i think about it. But yeah my tummy and front looks like that ... even the boobs :(
My arms thank god are pretty good - tiny bit of batwings and thats about it. The thighs and butt are pretty bad though.
 
I'm sure when you are that big, and have that much weight to lose, there will always been excess skin. But I'm curious to know if there is any truth behind the idea that if you lose weight too quickly, you risk having more excess skin than if it were taken off slower.
 
the skin will either snap back or not, just depends on your body make up and age etc.
If you loose slower the only difference is that it will snap back as you loose rather than in the year or two afterwards. It takes the same time to snap back - just that one makes you skinny faster i think :)
 
Wow
thats enough to make anyone sick >.<
The 2nd pic had to be worse >.<
Thing is now he will have the scars etc as ya can see on his stomach on last pic.
Good weight loss, Bad scars. Talk abotu a double sided sword.
