For those who have had skin removal surgery- how much weight was lost due to removal?

Just wondering how much one can expect to lose just from having all that skin gone.

    I lost 5.5# from plastics. I had very little fat left so didn't need lipo.

    Good question! I'm interested in the responses as well. I'm hoping to qualify for plastics in March for excess stomach and arm skin. I would love it if with that I was able to lose the last 5-10 pounds I want to lose.

    I just had skin removed from belly area two days ago.

    I only lost 2.5lbs. Dr said there was no fat with the tissue removed.

    Thankfully I'm not as sore as I had anticipated.
