Question:
Anyone lost 250 lbs and not needed plastic surgery to remove excess skin?

When I lost the 180-200 lbs before, in 13 months, I do not remember having tons of excess skin hanging like on my stomach. I know they was extra skin but for me it was reasonably distributed around my body. However, at that point I was down to 240 lbs. I wonder what the last 60-80 would have done. Ideally if I got to around 200lbs that would look great on me. I'm 5'9 and carry my weight well distributed for the most part. I'm just wondering if I'll be able to get away without having to have PS. Just curious!    — zoedogcbr (posted on December 21, 2002)

I have lost more than 200 lbs. and don't feel a pressing desire for plastic surgery. Of course, I don't run around in bikinis (I'm an old married lady!), but I can wear most clothes without any problems. Amazing how flattering clothes can make all the difference ...
