Black Men: WLS and Plastic Surgery

I'm not done losing, so I can't say for sure.  I'm not closing the door on it, it depends on how much skin is left once I hit goal.  If it's too much and an issue, then hell yeah, I will be looking into it.  My sister had the surgery 2 years before me, she ended up having a tummy tuck as well.  she was in some pain, but she's happy she did it. 

Right now, even after all the weight i've lost already, I don't have a huge skin issue, but then again, I still have a lot of weight to lose in my stomach area, which seems to be holding on for dear life.  Once that area is trimmed down considerably, I'm pretty sure i'll have hanging skin.

Again, time will tell.

Whattup Mack,


Ok,, I came on,, saw you,, and it was something I can comment on.

I got wls because of my weight, AND my health issues. I wanted to get this cholesterol down, and this high blood pressure down, and get this diabetes in check. Having this done was a long thought process for me. Dont ask me why, but I had this ummmm connotation that weight loss surgery was kinda feminine, or for women,, or faggy.

Hey,, now dont yall bombard my email with comments on that. I said that was how I felt,, way back when. I had wls surgery, so obviously I am better educated now.

But,,, I think a lot of men feel that plastic surgery is just taking mess tooooo far. Ya know? Hell,,, we had the surgery, we lost weight, now we need to just CHILL, and work the extra skin thing out ourselves.

Plus,, most of us prolly with the chic we gonna be with, so hell,,, we aint got any MONEY to spend on a cosmetic surgery,, cuz the wives keepin our ass broke.

At least mine is.


Dont trip.

Whaddup baby boy!!!!

Here we are back at the married thing.  I know I was driven because I don't have a mate, and to attract one I want to be in TOP condition..... sho can't wait to find him cause I wanna be a couch potato!!!!  LMAOOO just kidding.

And I also think it depends on how much you lose.  If I'd only had 100 or so to lose, I probably wouldn't have needed plastics - but I was having rash and other issues from all that hanging around me, so it NEEDED to be done.

But, um.... the breast work was NECESSARY...... but it sho looks GOOD!!!

thanks for the reply, homie!!
