You look fabulous! Thank you for being so brave posting that pic. I don't know that I could have done that at this point. You are an inspiration!

You look amazing... way to go! You almost look TOO skinny! Yeesh!

As for the skin.... chump change as compared to the health benefits you've gotten (I'm sure) from this. And like other people above said, give it a few years to see just how much it'll get better on its own before you start thinking of anything else. I know that I personally will probably consider surgery, cos I know I'm gonna have some serious skin myself on my tummy.... but I'm not going to rush it.

Congrats again though!

Matt I am pretty impressed that you seem to only have that bit of lower abdominal skin to deal with. I have 4 major areas of skin to deal with and I am beginning to accept that only surgery will fix it for me.
You look great and I say if it would make you feel better have it removed. But your arms and chest look totally normal, I'm alittle jealous.

Thanks for sharing so much with us. It takes a lot of courage to tackle such a big project and then be willing to share even the not-so-pretty side. That said, I agree with those calling you a hottie!

I'm w/ all those who said "it's not nearly as bad as I was expecting." You look absolutely amazing and I am SO impressed by your progress. It must feel great being so much lighter than before...not to mention being such an inspiration to us here. Congratulations on your amazing accomplishment and all your hard work. It's certainly paid off!!!
