Your change in skin tone is the most miraculous thing! Know the cause of that?

You look great!! I hope to have great results like you! I'll be sleeved by Dr Garcia on the 28th! Nervous but excited!

I was approved today, surgery next month. Can you tell me if you had loose skin and how you got rid of it,?

I'm so hyped up and ready to have surgery. I have 6 more months to go. But thank you for sharing some tips on your success. It helps to be able to learn as much as possible.

You look awesome!

You look incredible! I am so worried about my skin sagging. I am still early in in the approval process, but excited to get the weight loss journey started! Keep up the great work! God bless. ????

WOW!!!

Congrats on being approved! Exciting times :)

Yes. I do have loose skin, but I'd rather that than the 150 lbs of extra fat. It's just my inner thighs and arms.. I have bat wings from hell.. Oh and my stomach, but that was a lost cause after my kids anyway lol 3 c-sections will do that to ya. So hopefully by the end of this year I can start with the skin removal. I'll be going back out of the country as I can't afford Plastics in state. I'm thinking Mexico or Dominican Republic.

And once again congratulations!
