This may seem like a bizarre question and I realize that because of many factors, it is different for everyone but how after you lost your weight - how much skin did you have left over? I am 5'9" and 270lbs. This may seem silly buut I am almost more afraid of what the hanging skin will look like than what the fat looks like now. I will have PS to have it removed if need be, just wondering what I'll be dealing with.

Im 5ft 10, was 245lb, now 160lb give or take. I dont have any "hanging" skin left over, but my skin is maybe oh, half a size too big all over? Its the best way I can describe it, its not loose, it doesnt hang, it doesnt need to be removed, its just not as "firm" as it otherwise may have been, but that is probably equally due to aging as anything else - I'm 40 and was a sunworshipper in my youth. I'm probably the same as any other 40 year old not blessed with absolutely gorgeous skin.

Of all places, the tops of my breasts is the only real problem and I'm going to have a breast lift. I went to bed at 14 flat chested and woke up with a pair of DD's so I already had awful stretch marks there.

I wish that I had Jachut's experience. I on the other hand had alot of skin left. I am 2 weeks from TT and can hardly wait. My extra skin is more like a human skirt! It hangs larger than any website that I can find. The PS claims that there is between 10 and 18 lbs of skin and flesh to come off during surgery! Thats alot. But there is alot of skin. I can attribute it to weight loss, 3 babies around 11lbs each and 3 csections, for there being no stretch left. But the good news is....its all fixable. I am excited about the whole thing! Good luck everyone POPT!
