  1. Hi I'm planning to get sleeved in early 2018 once I switch insurance carriers. I look around and see all kinds of before and after pictures but it is hard to pinpoint ladies that are similar to me. I am particularly interested in how much excess skin you had and if you needed to have plastic surgery. I can't spend $15,000+ getting plastic surgery but I don't expect to need it at this size. I'd love to hear from those who have been there.
  2. Hi, this is my first post so forgive me if I am not going about this the right way. I'm in this size range. 5'7" HW 232 BMI 36. I'm worried about excess skin. Did those of you on this post have a significant amount of skin after reaching your stable weight or were you able to tone up and make it work? I am fairly active and plan to continue to be but I'd probably rather stay this size if I'm going to have lots of skin hanging off me like some pictures I see. I want to hear from low BMI folks of similar size please.
