Hi all-
I still have 40-50 pounds to lose, but I am certain that I will need skin removal surgery. i excercise a lot, do lots of strength training, but years of being so obese has taken a toll!! I feel like my body is looking, worse as I lose weight in some ways...especially my arms and belly.
Has anyone here had skin removal surgery, or know anything about it? Any idea on cost? I have insurance, but am assuming this wouldn't be covered. (However my lower belly actually hurts because of the skin and sagginess....maybe that works in my favor???)
Any info is appreciated!

If you contact Ed Davenport he can probably give you some info. I remember he posted a lot about his surgery a few months ago.:
