that one guy is infamous around these parts
Im curious if he got a bypass surgery or just lost it all through exercise. Loose skin is always an isssue but your skin tightens up over time with slow/steady weightloss. Obviously there will be some left over but it looks like he either got bypass or starved himself to lose it all fast.

I am also curious about the authenticity of this work, and if it is true, how did he lose the weight.

I didn't even know how to attempt to research this, so I submitted it to snopes.com

If its real though, damn, its one damn transformation. Check out those guns...I don't think "starving yourself" can produce those kind of biceps.

This kind of stuff is true. Here's a lady who was on Oprah. And I remember seeing a documentary on the Discovery channel about a lady who looked a lot like the guy in the pictures posted here but I couldn't find a link for it. And here's a website describing the procedure.

Pretty darn amazing. Gives me impetus to lose what weight I have while my flesh is still young and elastic.

that post weight loss excess skin is pretty horrific (makes my own saggy bits seem insignificant somehow). but what a transformation post op. he is really fit.i also would rather have the scars than be that big ... changing the subject slightly i got the bus up to my holiday. it was full and me and the kids had to sit seperately. i sat next to a pretty large person who spilled over onto my seat. sounds horrible, but i kept thinking, if i hadnt of lost weight i wouldnt have been able to fit on.slim

Wow that is an amazing transformation. If I had the skin issues that guy had I wouldn't think twice about surgery. It's fantastic that he lost the weight though.

For most of us, I endorse the comments about doing it while you're young enough for skin to bounce back - that would have motivated me earlier if I had realized.

I do understand the concept of excess skin, but I haven't seen excess skin in that kind of severity before.

If its true, its damn astonishing, and I am so desperate to know on how he lost all that weight. The transformation is unbelievable.

i also agree with losing weight whilst your younger. i gained then lost 4 - 5 stone in my early 20`s. not a sign of saggy skin did i have. this time im not so lucky. apart from being heavier than ever before i am now in my 40`s. slim

I have to mention also that the poses he uses are designed to emphisize it. I can probably post similar pics if i posed the same, however i chose to show normal standing poses on mine and wear a bra

The leaning forward so it all wrinkles up etc in particular makes it look a lot worse than it is.
