New with Questions About Weight Loss & Excess Skin

[BrownsugarNY 30]

Hello

I'm new to the forum and I am currently in the process of completing my prerequisites to get an approval from BCBS NY for VSG. I am 5'3" 31 years old and weigh 235 mostly bottom heavy (belly, legs, calves) and while that may not sound like a lot of weight it is especially considering my height. I'm starting to get anxiety as I haven't told anyone except my husband and a close relative because I think people will look at me crazy because I have somewhat of a curvy figure. My two biggest fears are that I will lose too much weight and it'll won't look natural and that I will have excess skin on lower body. My surgeon stated something like the elasticity in my skin will be fine but there is no guarantee and this is such a Big decision in my life. Please help any advice would be thankful
