For you guy's that weighed around 350 lbs. before surgery



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone!

I am a 59 year old male, 5'9" and weigh 350 pounds, and carry most of my weight in my midsection. I'm going to have the sleeve surgery sometime in September.

The doctor said that I will probably get down to 220 pounds.

If any of you guys come close to my age, height, build and weight, could you please tell if you have very much loose skin, this is the only thing that has me really worried.

Thanks very much.

yes you will have loose skin. yes i have loose skin. it was mild to moderate above 200 but since i have gone below that it has increased to moderate to oh **** really :)

i will take the loose skin over an early grave

we all have our priorities, living was mine. being class 3 obese will kill you.

I'll be 52 next week and started out at 326 hw 319 day of surgery

i was around 55" at the belly button. my cat used to sit on the shelf my belly made below my chest. He was a little ticked off when his napping spot disappeared :)
