I've lost 115lbs from my highest weight. How are you guys dealing with excess skin? Are you guys already considering plastic surgery? And how soon can someone get a tummy tuck after gastric sleeve?

  • I'm scheduled for Sept 25, but this is a bit concern for me. My fiancé says I can get surgery but idk that we can afford it.... I am just praying some skin still has elasticity.

Lose more weight and have more skin.

I had my surgery in December 2016 and I've lost 132.6 pounds so far and I'm 8 months almost 9 months out and I'm definitely 100% already looking into plastics lol. I had very large breasts went from 52j to a 40DDD and the lose skin on my chest is already a huge problem. At the moment my stomach isn't too bad but there is a lot of visible skin there and on my arms. I won't actually get my plastics done until my weight plateaus and my surgeon gives the ok (I'm guessing 18-24 months post op?) but I'm someone who likes to plan and get an idea of costs so when I am physically ready I'll be fiscally ready as well.

I'm currently 63.2 pounds away from my "weight goal" and 78.2 pounds away from my surgeons goal.


You have done a fabulous job. Well done. :)
