What are folks doing with all the extra skin hanging after loosing 150+ so far with another 50 to go (yes I was very big)?

Should I consider removal now or wait until the end? It is having an emotional effect on me now

I am no where near that yet...but some on here do get it removed...not sure what I will be doing...congrats though on your weight loss that is SUPER!!!

Congrats on your phenominal weight loss! It's recommended you get within 20lbs of your goal weight before starting consultations with surgeons in regards to having excess skin removed. If you were to start the process now or have the surgery too soon then you may not recieve the optimal results, i.e. when you lose the additioanl 50lbs and you've already had the surgery the likeliness of additional lose skin appearing is high escpecially since it is major surgery and the recovery time can be 4-6weeks, which means no excercise or very limited. Hope this helps!

Hi there, congratulations on your phenomenal weightloss. Like you I've lost over 150lb in less than a year. I've 30 to go. I'm having a lot of skin removal work done. I'm having a fleur de lys TT and breast lift with possibly under muscle implants. I'm having my arms done and a thigh lift. Sagging everywhere. My surgeon said I could have the work done now but might have to have it tweaked again if I continued to lose weight. So I'm going to get to goal first. I'm booked for my TT in July 2014. Just need to lose my last 30 lbs. Really excited.

Congrats to those who have lost so successfully. Good luck with this next phase.
