The skin from my LBL & arm procedure was 9lbs. Not sure about when they did my thighs, don't think they ever said. I think healing from surgery promotes some weight loss as well as your body is going thru so much to heal. I was about 175 or so and after all my plastics (2 surgeries for LBL, Arms, MTL & BL w/ aug) i ended up being 150 after all was said and done.

I have to have ultrasounds now, but they always come back normal.

I lost a total of about 160lbs and my skin weighed 2.4lbs between my stomach/back/butt and my breasts. I actually weigh more now than I did post skin removal because I seriously restricted to be in the "best shape" for surgery and then lost some more post op not from the skin but from lack of appetite. I weigh about 10lbs more than when I went in for surgery.

If you have fat filled skin it will weigh more, but I think the most I've ever seen from following extreme cases on social media is about 10-15lbs.

Skin doesn't weigh very much. Unless you get a lot of lipo, you're probably not going to notice much difference on the scale. Some people do get a slight metabolism boost the first few weeks after surgery, but any loss usually comes back. And Kim's right, some people actually gain the first few weeks because of fluid retention and swelling. Either way, you're likely to settle out at about the same weight after all is said and done. Especially if you're talking just skin.

I doubt mine weighed 1lb. I waited until I'd been in maintenance for, I think, 2 years so it really was just skin and no fat. Lipo was included in the price, but wasnt necessary because there was no fat!

Your target weight should be 140lbs. You'll weigh more than that post surgery with fluid retention, swelling etc.

I would not use a surgeon willing to remove skin before you reach and maintain at goal weight
