  4. i'm the exact same weight that you are and the decision was easy to make because it is reversable. Also if you think about yes you loose a little slower but less saggy skin. You and I are not even close to where some of these people are as far as the weight. But we are blessed to know that we can take care of this now before its too late. Let us know how you are progressing...GOOD LUCK.
